You should be able to limit the toe change during travel by measuring toe at different levels of travel and adjusting the length of the traction arm so that you can keep the change as small as possible. I don't think it's possible to eliminate toe change completely, but you could get it pretty close. Since your car is lower the stock length may or may not be ideal... this will give you the ability to fine tune it.

Since they have rod ends I'd also look at getting some good rod-end seals (not sure what they come with) or some rod-end boots to keep them greased nicely and as quiet as possible.
