the drawback of reversing spindles and swapping side-to-side is the fact you lose your "ackerman principal" on the suspension geometry. in other words, the wheels should turn in different arcs when gong around corners with the inside wheel turning in a sharper arc. if this does not happen, sometimes severe scrubbing occurs. the tie rod ends should be in line with the lower balljoints so that if lines were to be drawn thru the centers, they would intersect in the exact center of the rear axle. just so you know.
excuse me for asking,,,explain the tie rod in line with the lower ball joint if you can please,,thanks in advance
Do a google on Ackerman angle and that will help you. Here's a link that will explain it better than I can on the board. This particular link is for remote control cars. But, this holds true regardless of the scale - from remote control cars to gigantic dump trucks used in mining.
