Where can I find information on how to fabricate an aftermarket front suspension on my stock car?
I own a street stock/sportsman race car and I am going from stock front suspension to an aftermarket front suspension. (tubular upper a arms, front spring adjusters, adjustable balljoints, etc) I have a general idea of how to do it, I just want know what upper a arm angles i need and stuff like that.
You’re really much, much better off buying the arms and such, instead of trying to make them. That way, you can be sure that they are “square” and will allow the car to handle in a consistant manner.
The only suspension pieces I make are braces for my rear trailing arms. I use the stock trailing arms, and brace them to keep them from folding up on jumps and when I get sideways.
Edit – I have been racking my brains trying to remember who it was that had the suspension geometry book I saw a long, long time ago. Jay is right. Steve Smith also has several books on suspension set-ups, chassis design and fabrication, and of course, suspension geometry. Steve Smith is a God when it comes to suspension geometry!!!

Herbie – Fully Loaded [UMD for PSP] $14.99 The simple pleasure of watching a living car squirt oil in a villain’s face just never goes away. Disney, in their effort to revitalize the Herbie franchise, has made the wise choice of not trying too hard–aside from a small bit of skateboarding action, just about every element of Herbie: Fully Loaded would fit right into the 1963 original (groovily titled The Love Bug) or its various sequels.
