WHEEL ALIGNMENT
The camber and toe-in have been set to the optimum value, in
the same way as for front-wheel alignment. in particular, the
camber is negative camber, thus improving straight-ahead
driving at high speed.
ANTI-LIFT GEOMETRY
Ordinarily, when the brakes are applied, the load is mc
toward the front of the vehicle as the result of inertial force, c .J
this causes the rear end of the vehicle to try to rise upward, but
this is counteracted by the use 'of the trailing-arm type of
suspension which forms a suspension link design with a high
"anti-lift" effect.
In other words, braking force F is divided into force compo-
nents F, and F,; F, acts in the direction that contracts the rear
spring, so that the "lift" can be suppressed.
