Subaru Steering Parts

Your original Subaru steering system works with your suspension and steering wheel to keep your wheels stable while allowing them to move independently. How factory steering systems work is they convert steering wheel movement into rotary motion. That movement traverses a steering shaft that moves your wheels left to right and vice versa. Steering system parts include a gear box, center link, Pitman arm, an idler arm, and tie rods. The most common type of steering system is rack-and-pinion; many Subaru cars and SUVs have one. Its rack and pinion assembly, bellows boots, and tie rods work together to transform steering-wheel movement into linear motion. Rack-and-pinion steering is better and more accurate at turning your wheels. Most Subaru models also have power steering, better known as power-assisted steering. It makes turning even better and easier. Some can even have four-wheel steering. This system turns all wheels at higher speeds, adding stability while reducing fishtailing. Over time, a steering system can develop "play" or uncontrolled motion, indicating misalignment and resulting in unreliable handling and faster tire wear. Aside from abnormal sideways pulling, symptoms of bad steering can also include foamy or dirty power steering fluid and weird grinding or squealing noises. It can get tougher to turn your steering wheel and the wheel can start to vibrate, slip, or feel loose.
