So i have started to play around in fusion 360(its free) to try different chassi designs. So far i have only drawn a front end. Taking values found in books and in various threads i have applied some loads but the deflection i get seems excesive so does the loads and stiffness found. So im asking what loads should i apply and where should i apply them? Im building a three wheeler but lets pretend its a standard locost when talking loads.
This is my test front end its made of 25*25*2mm square tube, loads applied are 6800N and the back is constrained since that is where the rest of the frame will attach, i have drawn in the wishbones i guess the shock will mount inbetween the top wishbone mounts.
