Get Carroll Smiths' book on chassis tuning and read the anti-dive, anti squat calculations for his race cars (1980 technology).
A chassis man once described to me that anti squat is basically similar to holding your arms (trailing links) out straight...holding a vertical bat (frame linkage).
The further apart your hands are (linkage distance attachments) the harder it is for the bat to move...of course, the same with your shoulder distance (other side of the linkage/rear end or irs).
But then you knew that.

Scratch,
I recommend that you read Carroll Smith's "Engineer to Win" page 219, "AntiSquat and AntiDive" section.
Please note the last paragraph and then you should understand that my position on anti-squat and anti-dive is no different than Mr. Smith's.
