Why do the front tires of Road graders tilt sideways? My guess is that 1)it

they tilt more than 45 degrees. If the second is true, then do the 4 rear
wheels have a way to tilt sideways, or does the whole frame glide forward at a
twisted angle?? I should post some new pics in the next few days of what I have
built so far along with some updated pics of my new crane design.
