A(n) ______________________________ is used with the turning radius gauge to measure caster and camber in degrees.

Negative camber means the top of the wheel is tilted out when viewed from the front.

____ is the angle of the steering axis of a wheel from true vertical, as viewed from the side of the vehicle.
