Top of the spindle should lean back towards the firewall.

Hey Al,
 See if this helps you at all..........

 Positive Caster = Toward the rear of the car
 Negative Caster = Toward the front of the car.


Hope that helps.

Steve

Leaning back indicates positive caster which is what you want.  Leaning forward is negative caster and the most negative caster you would want is -.5 to -1 degree on the LF.
