Yet Another Weird Suspension Setup

195 JukeyMN  4.3 years ago

My attempt at a MacPherson Strut suspension, it works pretty well but I know it isn’t very accurate to the real suspension mechanism. Figured I’d share it anyways, so enjoy! Feel free to use this frame on anything you’d like, because I’d love to see someone who actually knows how to build cool things take advantage of this suspension.

    Note: for all those interested in this setup, I created a much improved version, which is up on my profile with the name “Race Spec Suspension”. It is truly my favorite and most complex suspension setup I’ve built, so please check it out :)

    @zzoop thank you! It was a very frustrating thing to make but it turned out to work pretty well.
