you just got to love this ingenuity! Your one clever dude!
I solved the same problem by machining stand-off mounted to the spindles to get the tie-rods in the correct angle but I always thought this may be a weak point. prone to bending. But I like this concept so much better for it's durability.
I've always wanted to use some sort of steering damping that would help soften the rough jerky wheel but never could figure how to go about mounting a small push-pull, self centering cylinder that wouldn't interfere with suspension motion. "Borrowing" from your conception, if you have no objection, would eliminate those weak leverage standoffs at the spindles and substituting a dampener in place of your " golf club rack tubing would kill two birds with one stone!
