Default Mk2 Fiesta... Alternative Rear suspension

I've been doing a bit of thinking about changing the rear setup on my XR2. Primarily as I want to extend the rear track.

My Idea is to weld a lenth of 3 inch box Section (lenth to be defined) directly above where the original axle would be. From there my idea is to take 4 rose jointed bars from the box section to the hubs, this i'm thinking will allow adjustment of the caster? then from the hubs a similar arrangement with rose jointed bars runnig to the chassis and to anchor points at the rear... this I think would able me to adjust the camber?

Or am I just being a plank?
