What could I do?
Will it make my car uncontrollable if I put the c hubs on the back of the rear hub? I did that and it doesn't hit, could I do that?
There is technically nothing wrong with running the C hub towers on the back of the hubs. The angle of the link is not an issue since it will still be in the same plane, however the issue that could arise is if some how you exceed the range of motion of the ball cups which could then cause them to bind or pop off more easily.
One thing I have thought of doing but haven't tried was just swapping my left and right hubs (W/ C towers). Since the hubs are 0 degree, then there should be no issue with this and it creates a LOT of clearance for the spring but I have not actually run this yet. A note though is that this would only work on 0 degree hubs (otherwise when you flip other hubs you will have toe out.)
