Hmmm...I thought anti-dive geometry would transfer the weight to the front faster (think of how a sway bar works). I though it was still desirable because there is less suspension deflection under braking and thus less camber change (which is highly undesirable when braking in a straight line!). I suppose I'll have to go look it up now...mumble, mumble. JRE David Hillman wrote: > I haven't located a shop manual which covers the new Legacies yet, > but I'm fairly sure the bias is constant.
