Power steering fluid cooler
Power steering gear
Inner tie rod
The power steering system uses a vane-type pump to move the fluid from the reservoir to the steering gear and
through the rest of the steering hydraulic system. The power steering pump is mounted to the engine and driven
by the engine accessory drive belt. Power steering fluid flows into the pump from the reservoir. The power
steering fluid is then trapped between the pump vanes and moved to the high-pressure side of the pump creating
a flow of fluid. The restriction of this flow by the steering gear creates the pressure that provides the steering
assist. A combined pressure relief/flow valve is built into the pump to control the maximum pressure and flow
provided to the steering system. This action prevents damage to the system and provides the correct level of
assist during all engine speeds. While under pressure, the power steering fluid flows through the high-pressure
power steering line to the steering gear. The fluid exits the gear and flows through the return line, cooler and
finally to the reservoir. The reservoir slows the fluid, allows air to escape and filters the fluid before returning it
to the pump.

CAUTION: The boots and clamps are designed to provide an airtight seal and protect
the internal components of the steering gear. If the seal is not airtight, the
vacuum generated during turning may draw water and foreign material
into the gear and damage internal components. Zip ties do not produce an
airtight seal and must not be used.
CAUTION: The inner ball joint grease is not compatible with water. Water and foreign
material trapped in the grease may damage the joint.
CAUTION: If present, the orientation of the vent tubes must be noted so the boots
