Re: Can you use a GM10 bolt front axle in the rear for rear steering??

You don't flip anything, it just goes in like it was a rear axle.

Torque steer is no more likely than any rear axle. The housing is "solid", so the length of the axles themselves really don't matter.
It happens in front wheel drive applications because the steering wheel is connected to the drive wheels, any traction (or loss of traction) goes directly to the steering wheel.

The great thing about being a pessimist is that you are either pleasantly surprised or right.
