  2. Wheel alignment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wheel_alignment

    These adjustments are the camber, caster and toe. [2] On some cars, not all of these can be adjusted on every wheel. These three parameters can be further categorized into front and rear (with no caster on the rear, typically not being steered wheels). In summary, the parameters are: Front: Caster (left & right) Front: Camber (left & right)

  3. Caster angle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caster_angle

    Front suspension of a race car ‍ — the caster angle is formed by the line between upper and lower ball joint An example of a chopper with a raked fork at an extreme caster angle The caster angle [ 1 ] or castor angle [ 2 ] is the angular displacement of the steering axis from the vertical axis of a steered wheel in a car , motorcycle ...

  4. Camber angle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Camber_angle

    The 1960 Milliken MX1 Camber Car has a large negative camber. Camber angle is one of the angles made by the wheels of a vehicle; specifically, it is the angle between the vertical axis of a wheel and the vertical axis of the vehicle when viewed from the front or rear.

  6. Car suspension - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Car_suspension

    Camber changes due to wheel travel, body roll and suspension system deflection or compliance. In general, a tire wears and brakes best at -1 to -2° of camber from vertical. Depending on the tire and the road surface, it may hold the road best at a slightly different angle. Small changes in camber, front and rear, can be used to tune handling.

  7. Multi-link suspension - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multi-link_suspension

    The arms have to control camber, particularly the way that the camber changes as the wheel moves up (into jounce, or bump) and down into rebound or droop. Side view: The arms have to transmit traction and braking loads, usually accomplished via a longitudinal link. They also have to control caster. Note that brake torques also have to be ...

  8. Automobile handling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automobile_handling

    Of course things should be the same, left and right, for road cars. Camber affects steering because a tire generates a force towards the side that the top is leaning towards. This is called camber thrust. Additional front negative camber is used to improve the cornering ability of cars with insufficient camber gain.

  9. Camber thrust - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Camber_thrust

    Camber stiffness is a parameter used to describe the camber thrust generated by a tire, and it is influenced by inflation pressure and normal load. [3] The net camber thrust is usually in front of the center of the wheel and so generates a camber torque , twisting torque , or twisting moment . [ 3 ]
