Have you seen the mars rover turn?
If you have the parts for it, you could add a steering mechanism in the front wheels and another for the wheels in the back.
Humm... that should make an interesting mechanical project :-)

The little lift truck in the 8062 Universal set has the same steering
mechanism. Just use a standard steeing rack with the steering knuckles on
opposite sides of the wheel. Sorry for the inept description, my
lids are calling for dinner time..

Fred Glockner, can you do a better job describing this?

Cheers,
