Toe In Measurement of the front vs rear of the tires when looking over the top. Measurement of the front vs rear of the tires when looking over the top.

Camber Measured at the top of the tire, inward leaning = negative camber--outward leaning = positive camber Measured at the top of the tire, inward leaning = negative camber--outward leaning = positive camber

Caster Angle that the steering support makes is the caster measurement. The example below is positive caster mainly used with power steering. Angle that the steering support makes is the caster measurement. The example below is positive caster mainly used with power steering.
