I am looking to use a cradle, a-arm, steering assembly from a 4th gen (1999) Camaro in place of the straight axle. Has anyone tried this yet? If so, are there any issues, tips or tricks you could share?

You would need to fabricate not only upper strut towers, but also a mount for the upper control arms, as they both bolt to the body on the Camaro. A much better option would be to either subframe using a 2nd gen ('70-'81) Camaro subframe, or use a crossmember that uses 2nd gen Camaro/A body suspension components.
