    Front vs rear steer R&P

     



    There have been discussions on whether a front steer or rear steer on an early Ford chassis with IFS is best. This is the rear steer on mine.
    The R&P are Dodge Omni rather then the usual MII as it is a bit narrower and the mounts lend themselves better to rear steer. Also, if you are running with a radiator lower splash shield, you don't need a 'special' and don't have that lump of undiguised metal below the radiator shell. Also, the steering arms are hidden behind the verticals of the spindle, frame and wheel/tire combination.

    Yes - I know it's dusty !!!!

    Very nice setup, certainly does clean up the look of the front end.
