| ykcor...what you are desrcribing IS squat...Think of sitting down to poop  ANTI-squat is PREVENTING that from happpening, therefore putting that 'lost' power into more FORWARDS power...Differenet angles of different components determine how much squat you have...Pro-squat is not an expression i am expert on but i can imagine it might be crawler-specific, (again maybe not) meaning that you WANT the truck to squat, (ie, load up its rear) in a certain situation, maybe to get a start on a climb or whatever...hope this helps... |

| Sounds like what he is talking about is when he gives the truck gas the pinion is lifting up on the rear dif. Almost like the rod ends for the links are worn out. |

| Could just be fawked-up link geometry, too. If the upper links are too long, you'll have pinion-angle changes like that. Does the pinion angle change as you cycle the suspension up and down? |

The way I'm reading your posts,your describing axle wrap. There should be ZERO axle wrap with any link suspension. Leafs,yes,you'll have axle wrap....no way around it. Quote:
The rear pinion angle of my super,it's pointed UP at about 45 degrees and the shaft itself is level with the ground while sitting at rest. Does it change under acceleration? | ||
