CASTER 

Caster is the forward or rearward tilt of the steering knuckle in reference to the position of the upper and lower ball joints. Caster is measured in
degrees of angle relative to a true vertical center line. This line is viewed from the side of the tire and wheel assembly.
^

Forward tilt (upper ball joint ahead of lower) results in a negative caster angle.

^

Rearward tilt (upper ball joint trailing lower) results in a positive caster angle.

Although caster does not affect tire wear, a caster imbalance between the two front wheels may cause the vehicle to lead to the side with the least
positive caster.

CROSS CASTER 

Cross caster is the difference between left and right caster.
