Alright, I am not a suspension and/or steering guru....what I want for my car is a good handling daily driver...nothing competitive, but fun for the street. The plan is to use Street or Track's coilover setups front and rear....but due to my planned engine swap, the stock drag link requires unfortunate oil pan modifications(I am currently piecing together an oil pan that will hopefully work). I had the the thought though...what will be the practical effect of converting to front steer? I am talking converting to front steer while retaining the rest of the stock-style(or in this case SoT) suspension pieces. Is this theoretically possible? Say by flipping the spindles side to side and making a custom crossmember maybe using a foxbody rack?(I would say chop down an AJE crossmember and use that, but I am sure that piece uses foxbody spindles). Obviously there would be other issues like the front sway bar location...but with the change in Ackerman, what would be the real effect on handling?
