Thank you Goran

Ouch... I did, I was trying to verify that I did it correctly. I'll take it elsewhere. "On a paper model it looks like a horizontal (with respect to the ground) control arm is one that will gain and lose camber at the fastest rate. Am I correct?"

"The A-arm to leg angle both set the rate and the + or - camber effect." Relative to each other? At some point as stated above they change signs, if you're at dead center of the sign change, is that the point in the A-arm swing radius that for a given leg/arm length ratio and angle that the...

Was I correct on the parallel to ground A arm having the greatest camber gain/loss of the radius?

Or maybe better said, how do you raise the roll center on mcpherson if trying to maintain a horizontal control arm?

Thanks for the information guys. This has got me thinking. Again for a mcpherson stetup: On a paper model it looks like a horizontal (with respect to the ground) control arm is one that will gain and lose camber at the fastest rate. Am I correct? How then on a Mcpherson setup do you...

Excellent point on the KPI/Scrub, I shouldn't have missed that.

Other than camber curve, antidive, antisquat, and roll centers, what are some other maybe lesser known performance benifits of double wish? From what I've gathered they are ignored by manufactures for cost, and packaging reasons. I find it interesting what vehicles you end up finding with...

I will take some measurements and draw out the car of interest. One thing I'm seeing is that the camber gain isn't linear since it's following the radius path of the control arm. Is that correct? With respect to camber curves then, how limited is McPherson compared to Double wish? I...

I don't have any modeling software, so my next question is would the changes be too extreme to effectivly package a change in control arm length or strut mounting location to be a viable option to gain or lose bump camber?

What geometries effect the bump camber curve of mcpherson struts? It looks like control arm length (the radius it travels) in relationship to the top strut mount?
