STEERING PARTS IN DIESEL TRUCKS WE CAN REPAIR
A diesel truck that steers well helps keep you safe and in control on the road. Most likely, your diesel truck utilizes power steering, also referred to as power-assisted steering. With the help of electric or hydraulic energy, it allows you to easily maneuver your truck and turn the wheels.
Common parts found in trucks with power steering include:
- Power steering pump: Either the accessory drive belt or serpentine belt will turn the power steering pump.
- Rack and pinion: The rack and pinion is what translates your steering input so your front wheels can move and turn.
- Steering yoke: The steering yoke is made out of rubber so it can easily absorb road shocks.
- Steering coupler: The steering coupler, which is a joint, allows you to rotate your steering wheel.
- Tie rod ends: The rod ends are attached to the ends of the steering rack and steering knuckle. They transfer the rack’s motion to allow your front wheels to move.
- Power steering hoses: The high side and low side of the power steering hoses are attached to the rack and pinion. They are used to carry power steering fluid and low pressure fluid.
If you need replacement parts and fast, professional service for your truck’s steering, turn to NMC Truck Centers.
