F1 RESULT(1) Not Used Not Used Not Used
F2 RESULT(2) Left Scrub Radius mm The magnitude is the global lateral distance between the left tire patch point and the left kingpin ground intersection point. The sign is positive when the kingpin intersection point is inboard of the tire patch point. See Figure 2.
F3 RESULT(3) Right Scrub Radius mm The magnitude is the global lateral distance between the right tire patch point and the right kingpin ground intersection point. The sign is positive when the kingpin intersection point is inboard of the tire patch point. See Figure 2.
F4 RESULT(4) Average Scrub Radius mm The mean of the left and right scrub radius.
F5 RESULT(5) Not Used Not Used Not Used
F6 RESULT(6) Left Caster Trail mm The magnitude is the global longitudinal (X) distance between the left tire patch point and the left kingpin ground intersection point. The sign is positive when the kingpin intersection point is forward of the tire patch point. See Figure 1.
F7 RESULT(7) Right Caster Trail mm The magnitude is the global longitudinal (X) distance between the right tire patch point and the right kingpin ground intersection point. The sign is positive when the kingpin intersection point is forward of the tire patch point. See Figure 1.
F8 RESULT(8) Average Caster Trail mm The mean of the left and right caster trail.
