GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The steering gear is of the recirculating ball type. This
gear provides for ease of handling by transmitting forces
from the wormshaft to the pitman shaft through the use
of ball bearings.
The steering column is connected to the steering gear by
a flexible coupling. This coupling incorporates a
capturing strap which is designed to prevent column-to-
coupling deflection from exceeding the length of the
coupling alignment pins.
The steering columns are new for C and K Series Trucks
but are basically the same as passenger vehicle columns.
The G and P Series trucks use the same type of columns
as in 1972. Optional tilt columns are available for all
Series trucks.
The trucks incorporate “Forward Steering” whereas the
steering linkage is located forward of the front
crossmember. Steering effort is transmitted to left and
right hand adjustable tie rod through a relay rod. The
relay rod is connected to an idler arm on the right and to
the pitman arm on the left.
THEORY OF
STEERING RATIO
The ratio of a steering system is the relationship of
steering wheel movement to that of the front wheels -
that is, the amount, in degrees, that the steering wheel
must be turned to turn the front wheels one degree.
For example, if a truck with power steering has a
steering ratio of 17.5:1, and that is a constant ratio gear,
it is necessary to turn the steering wheel approximately
17.5 degrees for each degree of turn desired.
Part of the ratio is developed in the linkage, but the
greatest part of the overall ratio is developed in the
steering gear itself.
Comparatively, vehicles with manual steering utilize
steering ratios of 24:1 to help minimize the steering
effort.
With variable ratio power steering the steering ratio
varies continuously from a moderate 16.0:1 or 15.0:1 for
straight-ahead driving to a low 13.1:1 in full turns.
From the straight-ahead position, the steering ratio stays
constant for the first 40 degrees of steering wheel
movement, then decreases very gradually at first. This
provides precise steering control for highway driving
with a ratio always higher than 15:1, as passing or even
OPERATION
steering through curves seldom requires more than a
quarter turn of the steering wheel.
When cornering, such as at an intersection, the ratio
spread will be somewhat broader - anywhere between
16:1 and 14.1:1 — as the steering necessary generally
ranges from a half to a full turn of the steering wheel.
While this provides an excellent average cornering ratio
of about 14:1, the most important factor is that the
response increases as the need increases.
The low end of the ratio spread is utilized only near the
extremes of the steering wheel travel-after approx
imately one full turn. Since the steering wheel is
generally turned to its limit only when parking or
backing up, the added maneuverability of these extreme
low ratios is purely a bonus, since directional stability is
not a factor at low speeds.
The design of the sector and rack are responsible for the
steering flexibility.
Notice that the center tooth of the variable ratio sector
(C & K) is longer than the teeth on either side, while all
teeth of the conventional sector (G & P) are of equal
length.
