technically it works to move the upper part to the back but it is more practical to have an adjustable lower arm and tention rod. the following image is of a custom made one. won't cost you loads to do something simmilar

Open in new window


this is pigdog work.

as mentioned by the otherguys you should use the s13 ball joints for the steering. i m still on the process i've never driven it with the new setup so i cant tell you how will it be but judging from the distance between the ball joints it will be nearly the same even a little bit lighter since the distance is bigger.

scientific equation moment = force * distance

keeping the same moment / longer distance = smaller force

so a quick lesson about caster and camber.

u already know what is the camber. caster is nearly the same thing at 90 degree. the lower pivot will be in front of the upper pivot this will help for more stress on the front wheels while turning.

mostly recomended to keep this between 5 to 7 degrees.

hey buddy why don't you modify the tention rods so that u get the 5 degree caster that will help more than camber into turns.

u only need to increase the treaded part by 2 inches.
