Sports Car Dynamic Rear Differential

This was the update to the rear suspension of the Sports Car. I felt I could make the car with something better than a Live Axle set up. Because space was an issue, this was the solution I developed. The each wheel has an independent axle with a differential place between the two. The differential is "floating" between the two wheels, so both wheels can move independently and together. Both wheels are supported by upper and lower A arms, with a trailing arm to stabilize the movement. Works better than the live axle, and is a little more stable with side to side and fore and aft movements.
