distance between point at which an imaginary line
extending from the axis of the king pin intersects with the
ground and the point at which an imaginary line extending
perpendicularly from the axis of the wheel intersects with
the ground.
Toe-in: The difference between
A
and B. Serves to improve
directional stability.
Because of the camber angle, the
left and right front tires each try to roll forward out-
wardly. This
is
prevented by the tie-rods, and so a certain
amount of slippage
is
created on the ground surface, and
directional stability tends to be impaired.
To remedy
this, the toe-in should be adjusted.
