I would go with muggy steering. You idea sounds pretty good, you will have to remake the plates that go between the bulks and the shock towers, as they interface with the top chassis plate. Sounds like it will be strong, but not sure if it will be any better than a muggy (with the better chassis plate).

I look forward to your project. My muggy does turn better than the lst due to the CD, but I really like the std lst for stunts and jumps. Different strokes for different folks, right!
