No this is not another Corvette argument thread rehash (tho funny pics with leafsprings are appreciated!)
O.K my, Uh project

Having a little trouble with the rear suspension design, mostly due to the fact the ideas I had weigh too much. The rear suspension consists of a pair of Subaru WRX rear lower paralell links and a pair of trailing arms (or links) to control the toe.....oh and I'm using a Subaru Forrester GT rear upright/caliper
I was thinking (and have been thinking) why not use a transverse leaf spring (only 1!!!!) like a corvette....its light and simple, and I don't need a upper control arm to keep the rear wheels camber in check....
Talk me out of it guys....what have missed?
edit:
Ooops wrong section....uh mods can we move this into general automotive?
