-Bolt on sealed bearing hub from a late model Durango

How durable is the Durango hub? Has it been used in actual high load/stress apps (racing)? There's a reason the Vette hubs are commonly used.

-Bolt on steering arm to allow for tuning Ackerman and bumpsteer

This is a good idea. Bolt-on steering arms allow for tuning but will be harder for initial market introduction. Might have to start w/one & then other options w/increased adjustability @ a later date (unless several options can be built/tested prior to public release).

-Taller for better camber gain
|
C10 spindles are one of the tallest GM iron spindles for their time. How do they compare to modern spindles? With a taller spindle, would real estate become a limiting factor? Would a more current spindle/joint arrangement work better (BJ attached under the upper pad vs on top; basically similar impact of the Gulstrand mod)?

-2.5" or 3" built in drop

The more spindle drop, the greater the interference issues. Built in drop needs to be balanced w/possible issues.

Would there be any foreseen issues with billet aluminum instead of a forging?

Isn't forging done for increasing strength from an aluminum material life-span aspect (aluminum has a reduced lifespan vs steel)?
Just initial thoughts. I'm sure there's more....
