Research paper help needed! materials in suspension components?

[MillaTyme]

So I have a paper for my tech class and I got to choose the topic, so it obviously had to relate to cars haha. Being a materials and processing class thats what I based this off of.

my topic: the materials and manufacturing process of suspension components in cars.

Any articles out there that would help with this?
Personal knowledge?

I'm looking for info along the lines of "The casing in a damper is made out of such and such steel" or "The spring in a coil over system is made out of blah blah blah" any info like this would be a huge help to me. Thanks!
