suspension is a fickle thing to play with.

you could introduce some crazey bump steer by changing the steering rack.

maybe not hard to fit, but bloody hard to get right, and by my mesurements on a E series rack, it will bumps steer like a *****. the pivot points of the rack have to be in a position that allow the steering arms to follow the exact same arc as the control arms. mounting would also need lots of research, as the xmember on falcons is a shit tiny thing, probably half the reason RRS choose to mount in the factory idler and steering box locations. the steering colmun would also need a lower bearing and bearing cap fitted to support the steering column shaft, with uni joints adapted to the spline, paying carefull attention to the angle of the rods, keeping them at a nice angle to prevent binding
