Front Suspension Geometry. Double Wishbone Suspension Explained

The display is all set up to discuss Double Wishbone Suspension. This was a very requested series talking about all the details about this setup. We will be diving in to camber, caster and a bunch more. Make sure to stay tuned to learn a little bit about it!

Best suspension geometry video I've found on RUclips. Thank you!

[@dalesaward1227]

Really hoping you guys continue this series it’s so helpful.

[@paikia84]

This video helps me understand double wishbone geometry better. Looking forward to subsequent videos in this series!👍

[@ChuckThree]

Love this series. So much has been learned.

[@kieranshelley8495]

thanks, heaps for these video lessons, they are by far the most in depth explanations I've ever come across. helped me fix the over centering issues with my rc car

[@johnrowell942]

Awesome love learning how this all works on motorsport vehicles. Look forward to the next videos

[@FDFraceshop]

Thanks 👍

[@joelitupua]

Greetings from Fiji 🇫🇯... love the details 👊

[@bobbyhartanto3196]

Thanks a lot, i learn to setup my RWD Rc drift Chassis from here❤

[@jamaisvu2664]

When is the double wishbone series continuing?? We need this haha

[@johntetreault2915]

Stoked this is next

[@zakwig]

Is there more videos coming in this series! Keen to get more in depth

[@tripleeathletics]

I didn’t hear you mention, that whatever angle the upper a-frame starts at (static.) DRASTICALLY affects camber gain, roll center Etc. Which is a very important element to the type of racing I’ve always done. But, has a major effect on suspensions and racing of all kinds! Otherwise, I’m glad I ran across the channel guys. You have some great, very informative stuff, Thanks!
**EDIT**
Whoops! Should’ve watched for longer than 2 minutes or so, before commenting… My Apology!!! 🤦‍♂️

[@Phil60084]

Nice one! Been waiting for this. Do rear suspension next!!

[@connorswanson6725]

+1 for rear suspension (anti-squat?)

[@mahmoodalattar2975]

Yes please

[@zacharyohare2118]

I need to build this setup modeled for Toyota truck IFS. I suspect there's some problems with MOST of the aftermarket stuff people install, I won't even get into the 4 link issues out back

[@bobqzzi]

That is a very cool jig

[@bwh32]

So my takeaway from this is … changing my static camber and track settings in my V35 (length of LCA and UCA is probably introducing several different effects on dynamic camber, Ackerman and caster as the suspension is moving and steering angle changes. my stock knuckles with bolt on steering mods have no compensation for roll centre changes when changing ride height either 🤯

[@robertmccully2792]

It is cool that you built those jigs. But that leads to you need a car hooked to it to show and explain the whys and why nots of all those adjustments

[@dan1906]

How about some baseline settings for common chassis? Some sort of starting point. Maybe even recommended ranges for such settings including ride height (drift specific)...please.
Thanks. Love the videos.

[@protator]

The baseline is obviously the stock geometry of your car. There are no universal magical numbers. You should spend some time on researching the basics of suspension geometry.
The rambling in this video is not gonna help you with that. For example, just changing the width of the rear tyres effectively changes the cars trackwidth, which changes jacking forces and roll angles ... and all of sudden the car behaves totally different and you have to tweak springrates/arb settings, caster and static camber in the front even though you merely changed a small parameter in the rear.
So I hope you can see that, unless someone with the same driving style owns the exact same car with identical aftermarket kit, asking for settings is pointless.

[@rossfricke2010]

Very cool thanks

[@sachingautam8024]

Can make video on semi trailing arm rear suspension

[@ivegonemad]

Im trying to convert to double wishbone using s2000 uprights, would you say it’s easier to incorporate the s2000 suspension geometry or use the geometry from the original suspension?

[@dustinkinard4032]

You should take that jig and make a full adjustable suspension set up so it’s a full bolt up Adjustable set up

[@joshtoth-thomas5847]

where can I get one of these jigs?

[@bvspeed]

Yesssss

[@ozelot250]

Can you explain how camber wear specifically negative camber affects tire wear and tire to pavement contact and how to mitigate tire wear on a stock car?

[@ThePudgyPlatypi]

Why is there only one video in this playlist?? :(

[@brianreed3668]

does anyone know what those telescoping heim joints are called?

[@JaredMillerDrums]

I want to know this too

[@ngew2114]

Chamber🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@Palestinian987]

How much is this setup? I need something that I can adjust

[@mchristr]

Drifting? I thought this was going to be about setting up a car to go quickly around a track. Sorry for taking up your time.

[@D.Ambrose]

There’s a huge amount of crossover between front suspension set up in drifting and grip driving.
Basically don’t need as much toe or camber as they run, but the same concepts apply.

[@isaacgraham6506]

It's okay to smile...

[@Naferner_Said]

rack limiter, why even?

[@eriklarson9137]

This would have been amazing if you spent a little time on editing/being professional. Probably the difference between 12k views and 120k views.

[@madinaelectronics1832]

Worst

[@fredrickbadass5260]

how much they last
