So the coil sprung LR3's have air springs as well? That's what I was trying to find out, but I haven't been able to find any info on the coil sprung versions.The LR3 uses what they call "Cross Link" to prevent what you are illustrating. Basically a valve connects the two air springs on each axle and makes them behave as a solid axle. ie, one side compresses and the air flows to the other airshock and it extends.
In any case, that was what my original post about IFS/IRS and electronics was addressing. That sort of suspension is fine on things like the LR3, RR and whatnot, but I don't think relying on something like that in a Defender replacement is a wise move.
LOL not really, but then again, I've done worse on a napkin discussing things during a meal.That's too funny! You must be proud of those, although I think some CAD experts might not think they are perfect... Firstly, it look like a uncomfortable ride, with the elliptical wheels.
You mean you can't tell you're looking at it from the rear and that's the diff? lolAnd why's the transfer box on the ground when you bump off the ledge?
In any case, I only posted that one as a joke. That's why I said the one from the shop manual was a bit better.
