Currently i'm reading a couple of books on chassis and suspension design. However these books were written for road cars and I
was wondering how applicable some of the information is to offroad suspension. I basically a few specific questions.
1. How much camber change is reccomended per degree off bump travel, or is the amount of camber change needed calculated
another way?
2. How much anti-dive do most off road trucks have built into the suspension?
3. It seems most race trucks have a huge amount of squat under acceleration. Does anybody try to incorporate any anti-squat
into the trucks rear suspension to try to prevent this and get more traction?
4. How do people control body roll on long travel front suspensions without using a stabalizer bar?
