Alignment: Description and Operation

Fig. 1 Measuring Camber

Fig. 2 Measuring Toe-in

Front wheel alignment is the angular relationship between the front wheels, front suspension attaching parts and the ground. The adjustments required for
Rocky models are toe setting, camber and caster. The adjustment required for Charade models is toe setting only.

Camber is the tilting of front wheels from the vertical, when viewed from front of vehicle, Fig. 1. When the wheels tilt outward at the top, camber is
positive. When wheels tilt inward at the top, camber is negative. Amount of tilt is measured in degrees.

Toe is the turning in or out of the front wheels, Fig. 2. The purpose of toe is to ensure parallel rolling of the front wheels. Excessive toe-in or toe-out may
increase tire wear. Amount of toe can be obtained by subtracting ``A'' from ``B'' as shown in Fig. 2, and is given in inches or millimeters.
