2D or 3D Sierra Front Upright

Hi,
I am designing the front suspension, based on the Book but the donor will be a Sierra.
Perhaps you can help me with the drawings of the upright in 2D AutoCAD or 3D [SolidWorks] or equivalent.

Regards,
Cobra289

I have this




I also have a very rough 3d model in sketchup, or save some time and buy my book - it's Sierra based.

cheers

Chris

Note to all: I really don't know when to leave well alone. I tried to get clever with the mods, then when they gave me a lifeline to see the error of my ways, I tried to incite more trouble via u2u. So now I'm banned, never to return again. They should have done it years ago!

Thanks Chris!
Is this picture part of your book?
I am waiting for 4 weeks for the new Ron Champion book.

Can I order from you and pay via PayPal??? that will speed-up the shipping to the Netherlands.

Time is not a problem, I enjoy doing this design in SolidWorks.

Just did put these dimensions in my simulation and found some interesting things. Perhaps you did it in different way.
Found:
Ron book has 185 mm distance between the top and bottom arms [front]
To get a reasonable RC I will be forced to change this height to 170 mm.
Bah! I am talking about my design that use probably different wheels ET and tires and a different track.

Here is a picture of my 3D model.
