Is there a market for a lightweight, strong front suspension made for lightweight cars, RT's, ect? I've been thinking about it a lot as I'm doing one for my EV RT. I also have a friend who does great metal work to do them. It would be basically a long double A arm racing style done in steel and alum spindle/knuckle. After testing I'll have a rear single arm belt drive suspension for sale too in alum. Basic spindle, long a arms, crossbeam structure ready for Escort rack, Saturn/GM hubs, rotor and Wilwood calipers cost about $400. If 2 are interested enough for $100
deposits, I'd start doing them. Width is adjustable on order and 4 or 5 bolt tire pattern, 13-17" rims fit. I'm using the rack, upper A arm with a composite transverse leaf spring/lower suspension in my EV with the double A arm ready if the transverse spring doesn't work as well as I think. I might try a double transverse leaf spring suspension to really simplify it later. I bolt them to my structural composite chassis so don't need the center member. The chassis is stronger, stiffer than steel by a lot.
