 so, you wanna build a suspension, 2007-12-10
This book is a great early step in understanding suspensions. No one book can tell you how to build a sports car suspension, but this one is easy to read, and left me in a place where I was beginning to be able to ask intelligent questions, and also assuaged a signifigant amount of my fear. Ackerman effect, castor, camber, toe-in, anti-dive, anti-squat, and much more will be demystified in this fine book.

good addition, 2007-09-27
book starts with basics of suspension. if your planning modifying or completely design a suspension this is a nice book to add to the library.

 Not what you would expect, 2007-07-08
I recently purchased this book and have read it twice from front to back. It had a lot of good solid information, however the title is decieving in the fact that it has the word "engineering" in it. This book touches lightly on the subject of engineering, however it stops there. This book is mainly designed for those with Camaros or Corvettes and doesnt really give much information regarding independent suspensions or anything else besides what may be found on those two vehicles. I am by no means an engineer but I do know a thing or two about mechanics and this book does not help me to understand the complete dynamics involved in a vehicle chassis. It barely goes into detail about shocks or springs and the only information that seems relevant to that is "How to cut your springs". This book is written more for the back-yard mechanic than for the aspiring automotive engineer.

 Save your money, 2006-12-13
Book goes over a lot of information in a very short time, but not much of that information is worth anything unless you're building a circle-track or drag car. Took the hit and ordered Stanforth's Competition Car Suspension.
