Steering Gears & Linkage: Description
Steering gear is a recirculating ball type with a ratio of 17:1-19:1, depending on turning angle of sector shaft. The pinion worm gear and steering shaft on some models may be an integral assembly, while the shaft is separable from the pinion on other models. Steering linkage on all these models is basically the same and consists of pitman arm, center link (or cross shaft), adjustable tie rods, and idler arm.
