Separating ride from roll...?

[Jaybob]

Jay,
Thanks for the interest. This project is stalled for a couple of reasons...

Hi Ray,
Thanks for the reply... I tend to agree with your comments regarding my current project... However, now I'm already thinking forward to my next project which is planned as a pro-touring car. I'm thinking a 1967/68 Ford Falcon slung low with a coyote small block maybe... Anyway, I digress...



Here's my thoughts... As I model these various live axle rear suspension centering devices, (watts, mumford, satchell), in 3D and apply side loads, (as in cornering loads), I find that all three of these have a similar problem with respect to "jacking", (maybe not the correct term). What I see when I allow the 3D models to articulate is that it wants to "push" the body/chassis to roll to the outside, (in a counter productive direction). So then I add in some loading to represent "anti-roll" and I see that the side, (cornering), loading is, (in effect), trying to "lift" the outside tire from the ground. Am I missing something here?
Thanks! -Jay
