1 (X): Left Front Anti-Lift or Left Rear Anti-Squat |
% |
The resistance to lifting in a front suspension or resistance to squatting in
a rear suspension due to suspension geometry during acceleration. In a suspension
with 100% anti-lift/squat the moment about the side view instant center due to
weight transfer is exactly offset by the moment about the side view instant center
due to the acceleration force. See the following equations:
