    Solving mysteries is always fun, well except when you find just more mysteries when you solve them, but it is interesting still and I hope that we could get some sort of manual about these things so it would not be so much guessing in the dark, but of course there are always limitation in resources and such so don't know if such will happen, but hopefully some day.

    I know this is an old thread but it has been interesting to me. Are all these inertia's in the pm rotational? where would we put vertical inertia of the suspension parts which will change the way the dampers slow down the movement of the wheel?

    Yes rotational, well at least for the wheels for certain. It has been a bit and my brain is not in inertia thinking mode.

    My gut feeling is to link inertia with their masses. Generally things that don't spin and are unsprung masses, I've collected in the "Spindle" entries in the PM. IIRC
