That lower part of the suspension ''arm'' or what ever it is seems to be connected somewhere because it wont move.

Huh... A combination of a regular double wishbone with a pushrod. It's like a rally car loved an F1 car very much.
@MoterKade @ian8811946 and thanks
@ian8811946 @MoterKade oh yeah those small shocks are test wich i was suppose to remove
@ian8811946 I agree.
@MoterKade Yup, its kind of an odd setup. Perhaps to get some extra travel....I know I have tried some weird designs too in the past seeking more travel. Although I think with the current geometry if they were hard mounted it might cause some binding. Think the arms may need to be more parallel for a hard mount.
@ian8811946 ha! I didn't even notice that. That would make a difference. Still I would think that the upper control arms should still be connected in some fashion to the super structure otherwise it will have weird movement on heavy landings. Could be wrong though. They are basically free floating connected the way they are with a shock. The upper control arm will always push in in that configuration due to the geometry. Your right too. Limiting the hinge rotation will help but will still have issues.
@LatteCoffee55 Your main problem is that the lower side of the shocks have no way to move. Shocks lock position unless you add some sort of rotator or hinge. I added a very short rotator and scaled down the connector rod so it would still fit inside the arm and the suspension moved freely. A quick way to see this is to just move the shocks out of place. The suspension moves just fine. However there are some frozen hinges that wont connect too. Also there was some strangely high dampening even after lowering the values. And the movement parameters of the hinges need to be tuned a bit to stop excessive movement.
BTW, very nice chassis and motor work.
@LatteCoffee55 You may have to redesign your control arms and those lateral shocks you have put in kind of confuse me on what you were trying to do. Sorry I work on Vehicles all day long and have for 2 decades. I just never seen this type of highbred design before. It seems there are a couple of that should move dont and other the should not move do. this may take me some time to figure out.
@mustafanaveed every side
only on right side?
