A complete and in-depth guide to automotive steering components, this program takes viewers through system basics, including the control arm, suspension system strut, and steering knuckle, while differentiating between linkage and rack-and-pinion systems. Illustrating how the steering shaft mounts inside the column assembly, the video explains how power is transferred into the steering gearbox. The linkage system section covers details on worm gears and the pitman arm, while the rack-and-pinion section shows how pinion gear rotation works and explains tie rod assemblies. Another section is devoted to power steering, including external piston, integral linkage, and power rack-and-pinion types. Animation and live-action shots work together to build thorough steering system know-how. Correlates to all National CTE Organizational Standards (including the provisions of the Perkins Act). A viewable/printable instructor’s guide is included. A Shopware Production. (19 minutes)
