1) your 'spindle length' is not as critical as noted. This is much more than 20mm for most fwds. More significantly related to spindle torque is distance from tire contact center, to point where kingpin angle pierces ground.
2) half shaft angle is normally not different side to side, and not a significant torque steer variable for current fwd's on road.
3) Torsional stiffness difference of half shafts is usually not significant, esp with open differential.
4) bushing compliance, vs linkage geometry, is main issue for torque steer.
Rescue kit locates control arm fore aft, and locates the rack laterlly, so only driver can pivot the spindles.
