Here is a part we have been working on for a while. After many iterations in Circle Track Analyzer I noticed shortening the UCA limited roll center migration to .100 vertical and 0 horizontally at 2 degrees of roll. As it sits now the front roll center moves 13 inches laterally at 2 degrees of roll. I took some sanity checks on the rear and the rear did not appear to move at all. This part was modeled to push the upper pivot outboard 4".

We have not put it on the car yet and we will have to hack up the inner panel as it intersects that plane. We plotted camber curves for front and rear so next we will install and plot camber curve with this. If that looks good I will have FEA run on it.

I upgraded to Suspension Analyzer some time ago which is a 3 space modeler set up for IRS. It requires a lot of input data which is why we laid the suspension out on plywood.
