The power steering system consists of a hydraulic pump, a power steering gear, low and high pressure lines and a power steering pump reservoir. The power steering pump is mounted on the accessory mounting bracket and is driven by the accessory drive belt.

The steering gear is mounted on the front suspension subframe at the lower rear of the engine compartment.

The steering gear consists of two horizontal steering rods and levers on the steering knuckles. The length of each steering linkage rod is adjusted by rotating the rod in the outer end and is fixed with a lock nut.

Steering gear: 1 - steering gear shaft; 2 - valve distribution mechanism; 3 - pipelines for supplying working fluid; 4.11 - steering rods; 5.13 - ball joints of outer steering rod ends; 6, 12 - outer tie rod ends; 7.10 - protective covers for rods; 8 - steering gear housing, combined with hydraulic cylinder; 9 - threaded stop of the rack

Adjusting plug 2 is fixed to the steering gear housing 1 using a lock washer 3, which is riveted to the plug. The flange of the washer is pressed into the grooves of the crankcase in two places.
