The basic aim of our steering System is to ensure that the wheels are pointing in the desired directions. This is typically achieved by a series of linkages, rods, pivots, and gears. One of the fundamental concepts is that of caster angle each wheel is steered with a pivot point ahead of the wheel; this makes the steering tend to be self-centering towards the direction of travel. The steering system must provide control over the direction of travel of the vehicle; good maneuverability for parking the vehicle; smooth recovery from turns, as the driver releases the steering wheel; and minimum transmission of road shocks from the road surface. The steering system provides control over the direction of travel, good maneuverability, smooth recovery from turns, and minimum transmission of road shocks.
