A basic wishbone type automobile suspension



This is a Pro-E model of the Wishbone suspension system of an automobile. Things are not up to scale. My apologies for that. Notice the action of the upper and the lower wishbone rods as the wheel rolls on a bumpy surface. Notice that the wheel also executes random turns of varying magnitudes. The corresponding changes in the Wishbone assembly can be noted.

    I just designed one for our BAJA buggy- But screwed up the front lower wishbones. I forgot to take in the ball joint’s maximum turning capacity while designing and now it’s too short! X(
