Flaming River also makes a Cobra Rack as per the originals. That is what I have in my Cobra and it is identical (as far as I can tell) to the originals.
Depending on what you use for front uprights, you may need to use different tie rod ends. I am using Mustang II front spindles and the Mustang Tie rod ends I had weren't the right length to work. After some research, I found that Flaming river makes 3 different lengths of tie rod ends for their rack. I'm sure I don't have the optimal front geometry with this set up, but I'll run it for awhile to see how it works out.
Of course, next year when I install the original style suspension front and back, I'll need to go through this again with the tie rod ends but that is just part of the fun of this hobby.
