Suspension Building Books?

I was wondering if anyone knows of a book on suspension design & building? I would like to back half my truck & build a custom suspension that incorporates coil overs all the way around. Ideally I would like my truck when finished to handle like a car (or as close to it as possible). If that's an impossible task let me know & I'll rethink my build.

Thanks

Re: Suspension Building Books?

im reading "door slammers" right now. its more of an understanding suspensions and chassis builds than it is a "how to" book. but its full of a lot of really good information.

Yeah, that's more of what I meant. I just want something that explains what everything does & gives you the math that helps to set up your suspension to do what you want it to do. I'll have to check it out. Thanks.
