| F1 | RESULT(1) | Not Used | Not Used | Not Used |
| F2 | RESULT(2) | Left Caster Angle | deg | The magnitude is the global side view angle between the left wheel kingpin axis and global vertical. The sign is positive when the kingpin axis goes towards the front of the vehicle at the bottom and towards the rear of the vehicle at the top. See Figure 1 |
| F3 | RESULT(3) | Right Caster Angle | deg | The magnitude is the global side view angle between the right wheel kingpin axis and global vertical. The sign is positive when the kingpin axis goes towards the front of the vehicle at the bottom and towards the rear of the vehicle at the top. See Figure 1 |
| F4 | RESULT(4) | Average Caster Angle | deg | The mean of the left and right caster angle. |
| F5 | RESULT(5) | Not Used | Not Used | Not Used |
| F6 | RESULT(6) | Left Kingpin Inclination Angle | deg | The magnitude is the global front view angle between the left wheel kingpin axis and global vertical. The sign is positive when the kingpin axis goes outboard at the bottom and inboard at the top. See Figure 2. |
| F7 | RESULT(7) | Right Kingpin Inclination Angle | deg | The magnitude is the global front view angle between the right wheel kingpin axis and global vertical. The sign is positive when the kingpin axis goes outboard at the bottom and inboard at the top. See Figure 2. |
| F8 | RESULT(8) | Average Kingpin Inclination Angle | deg | The mean of the left and right kingpin inclination angle. |
