Talk:Twist-beam rear suspension

Advantages & disadvantages sections[edit]

I added the dispute tags, because I personally think most of those points are either completely unquantifiable, or are merely opinions with very little relevence or importance. 78.32.143.113 (talk) 09:57, 20 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Can you propose an alternative set of pros and cons? I think you may be right. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 129.59.94.218 (talk) 15:34, 25 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Yes please do. We are all ears. Let's say 2 weeks? Then I'll remove the funny tags Greglocock (talk) 10:34, 27 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

"Basic toe vs lateral force characteristic is oversteer" wouldnt that depend where the suspension is (front or rear)? i guess its never used in the front so theres no mention? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.15.165.150 (talk) 03:14, 21 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

yes, that assumes the bush is in front of the tire and it is a rear suspension. That applies to 100 % of the twist beams that I have seen... but if you ever come across any others we'll modify the statement. Greglocock (talk) 05:32, 21 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I propose that Torsion beam suspension be merged into Twist-beam rear suspension. I think that the content in the article can easily be explained in the context of Twist-beam suspension, and the Former article is of a reasonable size that the merging with the later will not cause any problems as far as article size or undue weight is concerned.

REDACTED:Oppose. The two suspension types are different. One uses the torsion element as a stabiliser bar and suspension arms, the other as a road spring in any suspension type. Greglocock (talk) 20:31, 29 January 2014 (UTC)/REDACTED[reply]

Sir, maybe the "road spring" you were referring is the Torsion bar suspension. Both of the said articles stated the use of coil springs for load bearing. That said, I really think both articles are generally the same thing. The former even stated that it is also called as a the later.Jpogi 74.130.190.121 (talk) 22:42, 30 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Support Sorry, you are absolutely right. merge them please. I believe twist beam is the most common name for them Greglocock (talk) 00:37, 31 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
