Thank you for telling us your way Craig.
I tryed to do some modifying and building my own suspension too. And the more i did learn, the more stupid I did feel.
In the past I did try and error, a lot of error.
Card and ribbon "design". Worked pretty well, in 2D![Wink ;-) ;-)](/img/smilies/icon_wink.gif)
I started to test suspesnion programms and wasn't happy. the ceap ones are not really better than the card and ribbon design, the expensive ones: expensive!
I didn't and won't have the cash to buy this programms.
Your build is way of what I will do. Too much at the same time. Next step would be to build your own body. And to build a body out of scratch is waaaaaaay more easy than building a suspension out of scratch.
I'm really impressed of your way and your motivation.
I don't have the time and the money to build something like this, for bad luck.
with the help of Ron it will be a success. Without it will be sucking, I'm shure.
My experience with shocks and springs was a hard way of learning. In the end we found a very good working suspension even with a living axle.
The "perefct" shocks we got wth the help of the bilstein guys, in half a day, instead of weeks and weeks.....try and error, error, error
good luck, the follow on youtube is more difficult to me, lame w-lan access and not my natural language.
(and your workshop remembers me all time at the waste and chaos in mine, I would like to find a few weeks to build storage components and clear the s h i t)
regards, Kay
