So, just curious here, about torque values experienced on the rag joint "fasteners" on the BMW e36, or any BMW at that. I have read a few blogs on the F1 racing cars, but nothing on street use cars. Obviously the value of force will vary depending on velocity, acceleration, and surface the tires are on, etc...I'm interested in knowing the "dead load", static non moving vehicle on pavement (assume concrete and asphalt are dry and the same coefficient of static energy) and the "live load" torque when the car is moving on a paved surface at a constant velocity of 60 mph (same parameters as static). I can't think the values exceed more than 50ft lbs of force at dead and more than 10 lbs at live (although with power steering..not sure this factors in)? Any physics/engineers out there care to make an equation?
idk, like 6 maybe
