I do. But, I'm experienced with MIG. I spent a week trying to get the same quality with TIG that I get with MIG, failed, and decided I was wasting my time.
Thanks for the link.
As for making...
Speaking of threaded ends, I can only find 4130 threaded ends that fit 3/4" x 0.058" tubing. My supplier will have to order that size tubing in either seamless or welded, so I'm going to go with...
Thanks for the reply.
Based on FEA (assuming DOM tubing), it's safe to use the smallest thickness (5/8" x .049") that is offered by my supplier, Steel Supply, LP in Houston, TX. The next size up...
How bad of an idea is using ERW tube for pushrods and a-arms? The seam adds another path for failure, but assuming good quality tubes, are the stresses enough that we need to worry about failure in...
Not looking for anything in particular, except a good deal.
Show me what you've got.
Thanks.

I've sent you a private message.
I'm very interested in this set. However, I've never attempted to revalve dampers and am worried about whether I'll have the time to learn. Can you speak to how difficult the revalving process is?...
Just a heads up, the first link in the original post is active (the one crossed-out). It doesn't have everything the newer link has, but anything helps.

Anytime.
If you just need a place-holder, the dimensional drawings for the Dynapro single are at the link you posted. It wouldn't take more than a few minutes and a couple of extrudes to create a mock-up.
CAD library link from the first post is down for me. Anyone else?
Thought I'm not experienced, I think the solution is to put the tie-rod pickup points on the outboard side of the upright (towards the wheel).
Thanks for trying to help, but I have actually read these papers.
My issues come from inexperience. Using the scheme from the Cornell paper, I achieved a torsional stiffness around 8000...
I found the issue. I had set Young's modulus for AISI 1020 Steel to 29700 psi rather than ksi. Guess I was more tired than I thought, as I checked the material properties a couple of times last...
Hello,
I'm attempting to analyze the torsional rigidity of my frame in Creo; however, despite my analyses converging, I'm getting obviously incorrect displacements.

While I must say that this program is incredibly powerful for frame design, it's crippled by the fact that there is no means of adding custom tubes sizes from within the GUI. Making the issue even...
