Corner weights and unsprung weights.

[Davi]

Anyone here have the figures for their Ulimta for sprung and unsprung weights at each corner, or just axle v's unsprung would do. Just trying to check the wheel frequency on my design and want to check my ball park figures aren't a million miles out.

Cheers.

I have corner weights for my Ultima and have rough weights of the unspung.... also have weights of the unsprung on the GTT but not yet got full corner weights although I do have estimate as I have corner weighted it as a rolling chasis with the engine and box in.

Be interested to know how you have calculated these for your car.

The software lets you choose the material, mass etc of every component, so that's taken a large chunk of the guesswork out (although it is still obviously estimates) and as and where I've been able to find the correct info, I've specified it to give the correct mass by fiddling the materials if they don't match up.

It's come in with a total weight so far of 850kg, 43/57 split but there are a few reasonably weighty bits still missing info, mostly ones that'll effect unsprung weight, but I'm allowing another 150kg total, keeping the same split. Basically want to compare with a known vehicle of similar spec really as I don't have total confidence in my abilities with the computer
