One of Donna's favorite pics is of her lifting a rear wheel in her (now my) '96 LX V6 ATX. Quite an accomplishment for such an understeering pig. The reason they lift the rear wheel is because the rear end is already at full extension but the outside front corner is in full compression. Full compression on the front is more than full extension on the rear so it picks up the corner with the least loading on it.
