Caster
A wheel alignment adjustment that positions the wheels like the casters on a chair or shopping cart, so the tires follow naturally in a forward straight line. The top of the kingpin is either forward or toward the rear of the vehicle. When tipped forward it is termed negative caster. When tipped toward the rear it is termed positive caster. On a turn, the wheels will tend to straighten out when the steering wheel is released.
