i saw that you called it "mama's" buggy, so i figured you were building for a little less severe use. with a limited travel range and stiff shocks you shouldn't have too much of an issue with the toe changes if you set the rack height to the "center" of the travel range, it shouldn't be anything to worry about. once i started getting a lot of travel out of my front end, it got to be hairy handling-wise-- i never knew which direction it was going to dart off when it rebounded. Just make sure the steering has as little slop in it as possible. my homemade U-joints wore out quickly and once that happened i had to start over with a new design.
