Some of you were interested in the rear active toe thing I mentioned last night, so here's a link with some information on it:

Yes, that is an issue. If you elect to leave the rubber bushing in, and the welds fail, it just reverts to stock. The problem is that to properly weld to the cast piece, you have to ditch the rubber bushing. Then, if there's a problem with the weld, the rear wheels would be able to steer several degrees in either direction on their own.
