Technically, the DeDion isn't independent. Both ends are tied together by a common member. As far as camber control is concerned, it's exactly like the standard live axle.

It's biggest advantage is that you're reducing unsprung weight by suspending the differential from the chassis.

Not sure I understand on that one... Chevrolet had a V8 in 1917 and Cadillac produced 5,000 V8 powered cars in 1914.

Amazing car though! Thanks for the pics! :thumbsup:

Maybe that was a "limited" production vs. the DeDion "full production".....

Interesting stuff either way.
