Ranger 2WD V6-4.0L (2010)
Alignment: Description and Operation
Wheel Alignment Angles
Front caster and camber are adjusted by replacing the upper arm alignment set shims with washers. This allows for adjustment of the arm in the frame
slot.
Front toe is adjusted by the use of the inner tie rods.
Camber
Negative and Positive Camber
Camber is the vertical tilt of the wheel when viewed from the front. Camber can be positive or negative and has a direct effect on tire wear.
Caster
Caster is the deviation from vertical of an imaginary line drawn through the ball joints when viewed from the side. The caster specifications will give the
vehicle the best directional stability characteristics when loaded and driven. The caster setting is not related to tire wear.
Toe
Positive Toe (Toe In)
Negative Toe (Toe Out)
