    I searched the forums to read up on the reverse steering swap, comparing it to the standard Sagi setup. I like the concept behind the reverse setup, but I'm concerned with clearance for the front axle during suspension compression. Can anyone with a reverse setup comment on the issue?

    Just about done Herm's reverse box set-up and from the way things look now, the pitman arm should clear the front axle, although it will be close. Pics and more to come soon.

    i mocked up the very thing last week, and started a thread about it. i'd like to see the pics of it. i had problems with the p/s pump, radiator, and fan belt. the clearance on the front axle looked tight to, so i went back to the reular ole saginaw swap.
