Suspension Tuning: Roll Centers and Dynamics

In this video we look at the effect of moving suspension link locations on roll centers. Roll centers are important for tuning as they define the summation of the various links and their geometric relationships.

    This was great. Thank you for going into the weeds a bit for us. I'm following the graphs well enough. The one thing I'm missing is what you've been changing to get those new curves. Adjusting position of control arms? Angle? It would be interesting to know/see in the next suspension video. Or in a comment, whatever works. Otherwise, hey, anyone who's done enough work has run into "ope" moments like this. C'est la vie. We're here to see the process, and no one ever learned by doing something perfectly the first time.

    Was looking forward to this. Didn’t disappoint. Always nice to learn something new!

    just remember this task is usually done by a person that has at least 8 years of schooling and then years and years of hands on experience and they STILL get it wrong... keep on it, it will eventually all fall into place, or apart... either way it makes good content!

    Long time fan of your content. I've used your videos to help me tune my own skills over the years. You sure do make it look a lot easier then it really is! Thanks for the great work.

    Good on you for taking this on and inspiring me to dream about spending months in the garage working through the madness also.

    incredible work. Thanks for sharing your struggle with the world, its gonna make things way easier for the people who follow. No one talks about suspension in such detail. Never change TSG.

    Wow. Thank you for describing a real world way of measuring suspension geometry. My daily is 122s (Amazon) and I am planning upgrades. I have watched many suspension videos and no one has really explained how to actually measure these values. It is really hard when the irrational bits of the grey matter work against to crush motivation. All the best and thanks for sharing your build, struggles and achievements. -Todd

    Good video, when I did mine, I built the controls arms out of PCV plumbing pipes in the mock up stage and tried out dozens pick-up points and control arm lengths. Made the virtual FVSA (Front View Swing Arm) with string to capture the roll center. Was manual and took awhile but had everything worked out before cutting and welding. Keep up the good work.

    I've run into the same frustration with 2D theory vs 3D reality. I'm glad you found a solution and shared your path. I'm still searching for mine.

    Very interesting video. I learned a lot and am doing a similar build with the C4 components I’m hoping to narrow into a Triumph GT6. Keep up the great videos.
