Not Ranked
Richard,
Well done! A concise method that could be followed on any reasonable piece of parking lot. I'll propagate it with credit if you don't mind.
Perhaps a caveat should be added for the live axle crowd. Because of the roll/bump rate split caused by the side and end view geometry differences, we are unlikely to be able to get a balance as per #5 on spring alone, without resorting to very high rear bump rates. For my initial setup I tried to calculate a bar contribution for the rear that would give initial balance with no front bar and then increased the bar contributions proportionately for subsequent bar-in balancing, once I was happy with the frequencies. Just another advantage for the IRS crowd.
Regards,
John
