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:

So, in essence Forcus, you are suggesting that you weld a piece of square cast iron and weld it to the cast iron control arms to keep them from moving backward or forward because the arms are moving at a diagonal direction. Now, if you were to weld in a horizontal piece of square cast iron, the arms wouldn't be allowed to move at the point of weld any more or less than the length of that bar? Seems logical to me but, I would probably still want to weld the arms to the linkage too for extra measure.
