Alright this should be fun. I had an idea for a custom suspension that used electromagnets. Basically it would operate like a coil system. The design of the control links would be similar exept there would be an electromagnet instead of coils. The magnets would be controled by a variable resistor that the driver controls. The electricity would flow down to the magnets throw wires that are wound multiple times around the magnets. The magnet on the axle would be a permenant magnet. The number of wind on the electromagnet would control the potential of the magnetic field. The volts could be increased and decreased threw the resistor. This would allow an adjustable height and load carrying capacity. The advantages would be that the height would be adjustable, that spring rate would be adjustable, and the only things limiting down travel would be shocks and brake lines and drive shafts. The down side would be the weight of the magnets.
What I would like to discuss is the pros and cons of this type of suspension. Also is there anything that I have over looked? Have fun!
