    @BigCat Ive actually been contemplating making a guide on suspensions, I think I am going to start work on it right now actually. Bc number of detachers, length of arms, how the arms are connected, and more all affect your suspension, and you generally want one lets the rear travel side to side, but a front suspension with no or very little side to side travel. (it can worsen handling and increases the chances of the wheels catching the body or chassis

    Hmm. So you want the suspension firm, but not too firm @Puredeath maybe I'll try a car someday

    @BigCat more detachers = softer suspension witch can be bad if you have a whole bunch of them

    From what I've seen, use detachers and a long structural wing connected to a floppy rotator. Also be sure it's balanced and yes different front and back suspension works look at @SkipperBing 's cars hope this helps :)
