Give me a bit of time and I will do a coil chassis mock-up with a excel sheet for you to play with. That will give you a starting point to play with values. But really Ben its really what fits then...

The STD Nissan separation is 230mm, I used that dimension for my system because it is a good compromise for 33 or 35 tyres and allows the links to be set within the chassis for the ride height that...

All good Ben happy to help.
Its about balance Ben a car has to be predictable when you drive it, a good car does every thing slowly or progressively but still maintaining response and feel. I did mention the off side before...
first coil overs are very nice because you can dial in height with a certain amount of progressive rated loads, But to get the most out of them they really do need to be at the axle end or close to...
Yes the Panhard bar controls RC but because it moves in a odd arc on cycle and articulation at speed if travel is great it causes odd handling characteristics especially on the off side. This is...
Ben you have the right idea, But experience tells me from the F100 experiment that you get to much torque jacking loads when you have the suspension at full droop one side with the top arms at that...

First I have designed the system. But this suspension game is all about huge compromises. The Nissan system even though it does quite well, considering it was never designed for the massive...
Paul I brought a Nissan patrol coil cab/chassis March 1990 I had ordered it 3 months earlier, back then it was impossible to buy one off the floor But when I was picking it up a youngish pretty...
