Operation
Turning of the steering wheel is converted into linear travel through the meshing of the helical pinion teeth with the
rack teeth within the steering gear. The lateral travel pushes and pulls the tie rods to change the direction of the
vehicle's front wheels.
Power assist steering is provided by a belt driven rotary type pump. It directs fluid through power steering fluid hoses
to the power steering gear where it is used to assist the driver's turning effort.
