We have been doing chassis setup on our MK4 and with 1/2 tank of gas and my fat arse the car weighs 2650 with a 38-62 weight distribution. Center of gravity is right at the tip of the water pump, 14.8" off the groung with a 3" ride height.
I remember a discussion regarding a computer program that has the capability to enter a twin trailing arm suspension like ours. We have been fudging the figures for a double a-arm but that uses a single point for the upper and lower ball joint.Help?
