i doubt that there’s any place on the net where they explain things like suspension design or brake systems because car or part companies don’t design suspensions or parts without having a car to design it for. they might do research on new ways to design a suspension but it won’t be complete without a real car that will use it.
if you do the search you might also find some cad software.
