I agree with Jack - how many times do you hear that skid marks indicate the driver stopped as quickly as he could, when not locking the wheel is the idea? Modifying the IRS Ford/Jaguar platform to a live axle for one generation of the Mustang. One brief experiemnt on Corvette with OHC then back to OHV.

I must disagree on a minor point - the rear steering (in-phase at high speed, out of phase at low speed!) was put on the Mitsubishi sports GT (3000 VR?)years before the trucks. The conclusion was the same - performance/cost/complexity not warranted/appreciated
