What is Anti-Squat?
Anti-Squat describes the angle of the rear inner hinge pin. If the pin is angled back (front mount higher than the rear), the result is Anti-Squat. The more anti-squat the vehicle has, the less the suspension will squat during acceleration. Anti-Squat is most effective from a stand-still.
You can adjust this setting by either raising the rear mount or lowering the front one.
