There’s no way in hell I’d run that welded spindle on the street.
Do it right or stay off public streets.
The factory Mopar, rear steer suspension components do not lend themselves easily to a front steer conversion. Can you do crazy BS like the suspensions above and maybe come out with steering geometry that’s somewhat passable? Sure.
But why? Why spend the time and energy re-engineering the entire steering geometry using parts that were intended for rear steer so you can have a cobbled up front steer rack?
What does a rack get you anyway? A little more modern steering feel? It doesn’t make you faster. Maybe a manual rack might save a couple pounds over a manual steering box, but if you weld 5 lbs of iron onto your spindles I doubt you’re coming out ahead.
I’m sticking with my original advice. If you MUST have a rack, buy an RMS or HemiDenny conversion. That way you’re using components that were designed for front steer and a well thought out conversion. I’ve seen more than a couple of these front steer rack conversion attempts here, they almost never end well.
