History and Detail on Solid-Axle Front Suspension
Here we see four different examples of how steering could be set up on a dropped-axle frontend. Number one is stock, while number two is an early hot rod design utilizing a split-wishbone. Notice the strange geometry of the drag link. Number three is an example of a split-wishbone with a Mustang steering box, which is an improvement over the previous two but suffers from short drag link that can cause bumpsteer. The final illustration is of a Mustang box and a four-link, which extends the drag link and eliminates bumpsteer entirely.
