Dan Woods front end drawings?

[Arrowsmith]

Wondering if anyone has a set of dimensional drawings for the Woods three-link front end (with the horizontal springs and friction shocks) I can possibly access or purchase?

Thank you.

Thats a big ask. Think most of it was done by engineering 'feeling' and sketches on a cig packet.

Theres a lot of wrong in Dans front ends (and a lot of rights with competent engineering) if you don't understand the basic principles.

Maybe you can give us a clue to what you want to achieve.

Hi Gerry. L-O-L on the cig pack drawings...I'm thinking (thinking is the operative word...<g>) of building a car using small opposed coil over shocks on the front. It's an extremely clean setup and I realize your basic chassis came from Ed setup with coil springs and separate friction shocks. I'm not so sure about the 3-link, but what's it like in practice (driving the car)?

Following up. I appreciate the surprise gift consisting of the complete engineering drawings of the front end (for my own use only). Thank you.
