Steering Gears
XXX is able to meet each customer’s unique requirements, providing any vehicle — from small passenger cars to light-duty trucks — with a desired steering “feel” that helps develop and preserve the vehicle’s character.

Rack and pinion gears — XXX manufactures both *end take-off (ETO) and center take-off (CTO) rack and pinion gears* with straight ratio or variable ratio characteristics. We have high- or low-mount designs that mount in front of or behind the front axle centerline for packaging flexibility.

Depending on vehicle specifications, steering effort can be tailored by specifying the torsion bar size (spring rate) and valve hydraulic performance characteristics. Typical overall steering ratios are 14:1 and 22:1 (very quick to slow), with variable ratio as an optional feature. A centering preload valve is also available to help enhance on-center feel without compromising parking efforts.

N.B. rack and pinion gear = engrenage à crémaillère...
