Position of parts in assembly

Hi


I would like to build a vehicle suspension assembly and I willneed to move the wheels to different positions. How can I build an assembly where I can reposition a part and the rest of the parts would move according to the constrains I set?


I am sure this is a very basic question but I am new...


Thanks for pointing me to the right direction.

You must make a datum plane( throught axis and angle a plane) and then align your part to this plane.When you change angle - your part change position.
 
I will suggest use connections instead of constraints but you need MDX or MDO license for that.


I have modeled successfully vehicle suspension assembly using connections and MDO.
