Is this contest about the smallest fwd system with steering and • suspension???
Well, I have some crazy ideas.... but some of those crazy ideas will need
some speciaized or modified parts (in fact, one of these ideas is building • a
8466-like steering arm using modified axle pin, a steering arm small #6571
(yeah, the 8858 and 8465 one) and a modified Axle 2 notched or maybe 3...
but I don´t have the 8465 suspension system) and that would mean I • wouldn´t
make an LDraw file for it.

Well.... I want 2 similar contests: one is also about a front suspension
with steering but no drive and no specialized parts(I've got one design at
http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=26415 ,then click on
front_suspension.ldr)

And here is my contribution to the "smallest front wheel steering with
independent suspension but not with drive". I've probably cheated by using
only the springs from a small damper (part 731 & 732).   ;)
Here is the image; http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?i=256193

Look at the photos in the
http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=26085 folder and look for
Steering5_photo*.jpg files.

Ok. Now then? Can it be even smaller than this??

The other one is about a rear wheel drive system with independent
suspension... my design is based on 8437 suspension setup and it's at
http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=26415 ,then click on
rwd.ldr

As you can see in the photos I've also added a rear suspension system, but I
think that has been made before.... I'm not sure, but I think I've seen this
before.
Mail me if anybody want the Ldraw file for the rear suspension system too.

(...) Yeah, I also think you cheated..... but what's the problem????? It´s a very interesting suspension setup.... and very very very small. (...) That's a winning one..... I'll try to build one like that, but using this time full dampers or maybe (...) (22 years ago, 21-Oct-02, to lugnet.technic)
