Default Anti-Squat and Suspension Geometry

Glad to be back and talking to everyone again.

I am currently taking a vehicle dynamics class with emphasis on suspension design and anti-features. Since the percentage of 'lift' a rear tire center will experience on longitudinal acceleration is dependent on the suspension geometry, I need some good pictures of the rear control arms with pivot points low to the ground. This geometry lifts the rear of the chassis and plants more weight on the ground.

Does anyone have any good pictures of this setup? It used to be quite common on old drag cars but haven't seen any good pictures recently.

Thanks for your help!

**Sorry, my error. When I wrote 'tire center' I meant rear chassis.
