Description

DESCRIPTION - SPEED PROPORTIONAL STEERING GEAR
Available on certain models of this vehicle is an electronically controlled, speed-sensitive, variable-effort rack and pinion power steering system. This system is better known as speed-proportional power steering.





The speed proportional power steering gear mounts in the same location as the standard power steering gear. It is mounted on the crossmember behind the engine. Externally, the main difference between a speed proportional power steering gear and a standard power steering gear is the presence of a solenoid control valve on the gear housing.
