Super Beetle single A arm front suspension.

[The Pirate]

What do you mean by "roll centers"? I will be able to better explain my idea and design when I get a chance to draw up a diagram and post it. Plus If the I shaped control arm was such a good design why didnt VW use it on the early rabbits? My main concern is that the A arms are shorter and have to be mounted farther from the center of the car. Yet once this is done they will have the same amount up and down travel as the original I arm and the same arc of travel as well. I guess the question I currently have now is.

Again what do you mean "roll centers"?

Will the same springs work on the struts or will I need some softer or harder springs?

Will having the pivot points farther from center cause the way the car rides or sits on the suspesion to affected in a negative way?

Thanks for any help .
