Steering Gears

Steering gear is of worm and roller type. Gear housing contains shaft to which roller is mounted. Roller is held in bronze bushing. Spindle is adjusted with screw on housing cover. Due to design feature, roller steering is only play-free in certain central range. When vehicle is in motion, play between roller and spindle increases, however play is not noticed because of self-centering action of the front wheels. Steering column is connected to gear through coupling disc.
