Anyone played with this site?:

Its an on-line front end suspension simulator. Punch in the various parameters and watch what happens.

Bruce,

That's quite a web site. Has anyone yet entered the OEM GMC & 1-Ton
parameters? One that I didn't find in my brief review is the knuckle
distance between ball joints.

Ken,
Look under the steering knuckle tab. You need to enter the horizontal and vertical distances from the center of the hub to both the upper and lower ball joints. It then calculates the spacing between the upper and lower ball joints on the calculated column.

Seems like its fairly sophisticated.
