You could just stand up a servo so the shaft is vertical, stick a saver on it and connect the tie rods. That'll take car of the linkage part. I think touring car suspension is probably what you'd want to keep it narrow. Make custom arm mounts to keep the geometry right when you reverse the knuckle for the front steer setup.

Edit: Take a look at the steering setup on a Tamiya Hornet to get a visual on the steering linkages.

A rustler bellcrank setup. The drag link is what you attach the turnbuckles to...

Instead of running turnbuckles out to steering knuckles, just eliminate the turnbuckles, move the steering knuckles inward and attach them directly to the drag link. Bandit front wheels are nice and skinny.

The ackerman angles may be off, but some ackerman is better than none
