King Pin Inclination






King pin inclination

A.Vertical line D.King pin inclination




Originally king pin inclination (D) referred to king pin lean. Because the car does not have a king pin the inclination corresponds to the angle between the vertical line (A) and a line through the spring strut.

A real king pin inclination ensures that the wheel turns easily and retains a self centering effect.

King pin inclination cannot be adjusted.
