About Steering Rack Manuals

The Volvomanual steering rack and pinion system consists of two main parts. The first of these is the pinion. This is a toothed, circular “gear” that connects to the steering column of the vehicle. The pinion rests on a linear “gear” known as the rack. When the steering wheel turns it causes the pinion to rotate. This rotation translates to linear movement of the rack.

The ends of the Volvomanual steering rack connect to rods, which are known as tie rods. These, in turn, are connected to spindles located on the vehicle’s wheels. When the rack moves from side to side, when prompted by the rotation of the pinion, the wheels are caused to move, thus translating the driver’s operation of the steering wheel to the directional movement of the vehicle.

To keep the mechanism of the Volvomanual steering rack in good working order it is essential to keep the ends clean and dry and also to ensure that they are adequately lubricated. This is achieved by encasing the steering rack within a set of rubber boots or gaiters.

If there are any problems with the Volvomanual steering rack as a result of wear and tear caused by water or dirt or lack of effective lubrication it is likely to require replacement if the steering system of the vehicle is to be restored.

Volvo trivia

• Volvo is Swedish and was founded in 1924 by two brothers who designed and built the ÖV 4 because they realised that other cars couldn't cope with Sweden's harsh weather. The car was given the name 'Jakob' and had both a 1.9-litre four-cylinder engine and a three-speed manual gearbox.
• The Volvo XC90 has won an incredible 70 awards, ranging from the Auto Express Car of the Year 2015, the Business Insider 2015 Car of the Year, the Sunday Times Top 100 Cars 2016, and the Motor Trend SUV of the Year 2016, to name just a few.
• There's a theatre in Ireland where the patrons all sit in seats from the Volvo S80 luxury saloon. A local Volvo dealer saw the seats being used at the launch of the S80 and asked Volvo if he could have some for his local theatre.
• Volvo is a Latin word that means 'I spin,' although some later translations change the meaning slightly to 'I roll.'
• During the 1950s, Volvo was doing so well that they started offering five-years worth of insurance with every car sale. It wasn't a long-lived campaign.
