DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
POWER STEERING SYSTEM DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
The hydraulic power steering pump is a constant displacement vane-type pump that provides hydraulic pressure
and flow for the power steering gear. The hydraulic power steering pump is belt-driven.
The power steering fluid reservoir holds the power steering fluid.
In the recirculating ball system, a worm gear converts steering wheel movement to movement of a sector shaft.
A pitman arm attached to the bottom of the sector shaft moves an intermediate rod assembly. This assembly
consists of inner and outer tie rod ends that are replaceable independent of each other.
The power steering pressure hose connects the power steering pump union fitting to the power steering gear and
allows pressurized power steering fluid to flow from the pump to the gear.
The power steering return hose returns fluid from the power steering gear back to the power steering fluid
reservoir. The power steering return line contains an integral fin-type power steering fluid cooler.
In a typical power steering system, a pump generates hydraulic pressure, causing fluid to flow, via the pressure
hose, to the steering gear valve assembly. The steering gear valve assembly regulates the incoming fluid to the
right and left chambers in order to assist in right and left turns.
Turning the steering wheel activates the valve assembly, which applies greater fluid pressure and flow to one
side of the steering gear piston, and lower pressure and flow to the other side of the piston. The pressure assists
the movement of the gear piston. Tie rods transfer this force to the front wheels, which turn the vehicle right or
left.
