Ok so I've spent a heck of a long time on this, making the chassis as accurately as possible and trying to make the suspension work. The front is ok, but the back just sucks. I'd love if someone could help me out.... :/

The Ariel Nomad is super rad tho...

    No sorry. :( But you could make the suspension out of 1piece... that’ll make it stronger. @Dynimerous

    @jamesPLANESii Thanks! that worked better than expected. I'll still have to do some editing, but it's much better now :)
    Also, do you know if it's possible to make the connection between two parts invincible? I'd like to strengthen the connection between each shock on the front, the connection between the big one and the little one.

    @Dynimerous i just posted an edited version if you don't like it let me know and I'll take it down if you want me to. Basically keep your springs soft and your damper and suspension travel high for offroad and for on road springs need to be stiff and responsive and you damper must be high to compensate for little suspension travel.

    Yeah. I think the damper and spring strength need by be higher. Try 1000% strength and 500% damper. @Dynimerous

    @jamesPLANESii still, the way the rear collapses or just bounced weirdly.

    @jamesPLANESii thanks. I know my proportions are a bit off, but what I really need help with is making the rear suspension work well.

    BTW I think the issue is that it isn’t quite wide enough.

    It’s a bit pixelated, but this might help you.
    Put it over the SP blueprint and test out the accuracy.
