What are the types of power steering systems?

There are two basic types of power steering systems used on vehicles. The rack and pinion steering system and the conventional/integral steering gear system, which is also known as a recirculating ball steering system. Any power steering system in general contains various components between the steering wheel and steering gear including the steering wheel itself, an O-ring, the steering column, the steering coupler, the steering gear, power steering hoses, and a power steering pump.

An integral component of a vehicle's rack-and-pinion steering mechanism is the steering rack. It is a metal bar that sits parallel to the front axle that moves left and right as the steering wheel is turned. Another important component is the O-ring, which is found on the top of the power steering pump. It's the suction hose that brings the fluid from the reservoir into the pump. The hose connects to a metal/plastic inlet/elbow that is bolted onto the pump.

Hydraulic fuel called power steering fluid, helps lubricate the steering system, the steering system pulley, and various other moving parts to help your vehicle's power steering system run smoothly. Power steering fluid creates a hydraulic link between the steering wheel and the front wheels. This decreases the amount of effort required to turn the wheels with the help of a power steering hose, which is used to connect the power steering pump of the vehicle to the power steering cylinder. There is a power steering fluid reservoir that holds the power steering fluid.
