The Rack And Pinion of Ford F-150 are part of the steering system; convert the circular motion of the steering wheel into the sideways movement of the wheels. Commonly, this mechanism uses a typical rack and pinion system whereby a pinion gear will fit into a linear rack gear lodged in a metal pipe. The rack is mounted by tie-rods which in turn link to the steering knuckles to enable smooth operation of the wheels. Most of the contemporary F-150 vehicles employ power-steering, more so, with the rack and pinion type of steering since it reduces the force required to turn the steering wheel by use of hydraulic or electrical power. Hydraulic systems have a cylinder which contains a fluid and a piston that assists depending on the position of the steering wheel. For the past years there have been development new designs these includes the straight gears they are usually considered more efficient in operation and less heat developing than the helical gears which may cause more wear.
