So, I'm in the process of aquiring a 914 project and am trying to plan as far forward as possible, In particular the suspension.
Plan is to modify the trailing arms and turn them into either a 5-Link suspension or uneven length A-Arms. I'm looking for any pics or details on those who have gone this route. In particular, with an dual A-Arm setup in the rear, what lengths/angles should I use for the A-Arms? What about 5-link? I know the question is a bit vague and I don't have many details at the moment but I'll be working towards finalizing something soon. Appreciate any feedback and PICS. |

Where are those photos from? Think I got them from this site some time ago? I'm trying to look at other cars to figure out how to design it...trying to find software online that is cheap and free with no/minimal luck. Theres Wingeo3 but susprog3 but they are not free/cheap. Basically plan so far is to modify the trailing arm as in the pics and figure out suspension geometry from there...legth/angle of upper and lower control arms in order to get good handling. Was hoping someone may have gone this route and have some data. |
