Answer

Brief Explanations:

  1. (D): Steering axis inclination is not an adjustable rear - wheel alignment setting. Toe is measured in inches or millimeters, not degrees for most non - toe alignment values, accurate alignment helps performance, and two or four - wheel alignments are common.
  2. (C): Steering pull occurs when there is a difference in caster angles between the front wheels, not when they are the same. Positive caster aids wheel return, the steering axis is formed as described, and negative caster has the top of the steering knuckle forward.
  3. (A): Excessive negative camber on the driver's side front wheel can cause the vehicle to pull to the driver's side.
  4. (D): Suspension springs help return the front wheels to the straight - ahead position after cornering due to proper steering axis inclination.
  5. False: The included angle is the sum of the steering axis inclination and camber angle on a single front wheel, not including caster.
  6. (D): Collision damage is the most typical cause of excessive setback. Aggressive cornering, incorrect tire size, and hard braking are less likely to cause it.
  7. (D): Toe has a significant effect on tire tread wear. Toe is labeled as toe - in or toe - out, can be set on rear wheels in many late - model vehicles, and a proper toe setting reduces scraping.
