Nope. The idler and pitman move through an arc, so the centerlink moves fore and aft in relationship to the frame, not just side to side.[/b]
O.K. How about making the C-channel move back and forth also, maybe with some sort of set up like they do with roler coasters i.e. a wheel on bottom and wheel on top to keep it from falling off?

It might have a few moving parts but it would eliminate the friction.
