Default 3D Design/CAD Suspension Files

I'm just curious where some of you get you 3d files. I've been tinkering with Solidworks, Blender, and stuff of that sort lately trying to learn it for ***** and giggles. I'd like to find .stl or .obj files for various suspension parts so I could 3d print them to scale for various projects or just to have around to build realistic models.I don't imagine most companies 3d scanning or using photogrammetry to reverse engineer parts. I imagine the SEMA Tech Transfer probably has majority of what I need, but before I go throw $360/yr at SEMA I figured i'd stop and ask here to see if any of you guys have some suggestions.

https://www.thingiverse.com/ - I don't think you'll find much in the way of actual production parts there, though. But it's the biggest site I know of for sharing 3D models.

Yeah I've used Thingiverse to get basic models and stuff like that, but I was hoping for something with specifics and details.
