    It's funny you mention not having a spare. I do have a spare Lincoln wire wheel, and the idea of doing a speedster style rear mounted spare frequently comes to mind.

    I will be chassis mounting the R&P. Yes, there will be bump steer, but with the correct positioning of the rack and the use of good steering damper(s) it can be minimized. The DIY Unisteer has been the backup plan all along.
    With all due respect, I think you'll find that ANY bumpsteer will be unacceptable unless you enjoy punishment. Been there, done that. To me, the biggest part of enjoying a car that you build yourself is having all the parts work in concert with each other in a fashion described by the OEM's designs and that includes ZERO bumpsteer.
