As wear occurs in suspension components, it can lead to changes in wheel alignment. Technician A is correct because worn suspension parts can cause the wheel to tilt inward at the top, resulting in negative camber. Technician B is also correct because wear in the steering linkage can lead to a change in the toe setting, often resulting in toe-out from an original toe-in specification due to slack or play in the steering components.
