BTW--I intend to re-visit this once the car is up and running. There is no doubt this will work to hold it togethe and I can always rebuild the center bracket later and swap different tie rods. Without having the engine in I have been having to disconnect the front spring to get the A arms to swing into the natural drive position. I am ready to move onto the hydraboost now and hope to drop the engine back in there very soon. No more time budgeted to this right now.
I only have one dial indicator and setting up on one side of the rotor (with the spring and sway bar undone) moving the spindle up and down, so far it looks good. With the engine back in I can support on the control arm and bounce the car and check for bumpsteer movement.

No, looking at it from the front like the other 2 pics you took, but then hold the camera at ground level or so and aim it up so you can capture the rack, the lower control arm cross shaft and the upper 1 in the same shot. It should be possible. Doesn't matter if there's a bunch of stuff in the way, jsut so that these points can be seen and an evaluation of the geometry can be made (although crude)
It will work to hold it together but you will hate to drive the car with a lot of bumpsteer especially on rough roads.
