on a macpherson front end shouldn't the motion ratio be measured to the center of the tire? So the lever arm would now be something like 1:1.1 or so?

Also, using a lever arm of 1:1.277 in the back is giving me goofy numbers. I can't seem to replicate the ones you produced in the other thread. I'm getting CPM values that are huge (150+). This is using the spring rate values you gave for the stock and 944 TB at the shock position (186 and 216, respectively).

This is fun


Good info here at this link also
