Nohachi's suspension ramblings thread

Hi all,

I'm working on a simple suspension dynamics model that will allow a very rough comparison between theoretical damping curve for various 86 setups and some of the damping curves that people here have posted.
The theoretical model isn't perfect by a long shot..but its the basic stuff that engineers go through to get an idea of where they should start looking.

Here's my problem. I have some rough suspension measurements from a stock AE86 chassis (thanks raceminded!). Because the car still has most of its components on, its impossible to measure every little bit perfectly. So I had to settle for a subset of easily measureable things. In theory they are enough to calculate a rough approximation of the stock hachi roll centre height.

My question to the forums:
Is there anyone here who is handy with autocad and who is willing to transfer these measurements to a coherent technical drawing. You'll probably have to use a cosine or two to calculate some of the measurements from the bunch that I made. Shouldn't be to much work though.

Anyone who can/want's to help? I'd do it myself. But I haven't touched autocad in 5 years and also don't have a version at the moment.
