Interesting idea. Won't the rack have to be quite far forward, in which case its position & also the angle / length of the steering arms (custom ones will probably be required) will be critical for it to be a worthwhile conversion. If Amazon's have Ackermann steering geometry, then the postion of the rack etc can be calculated rather than being a case of trial & error.
