ABSTRACT:
The invention provides a steering assembly comprising a gear rack actuated by a pinion shaft rotated by a steering spindle wherein misalignment of the teeth of the gear rack and of the teeth of the pinion shaft can be readily adjusted for the entire flanks of both sides of the teeth so as to eliminate play and maintain constant engagement. A two part housing having relative pivotal motion on a spherical juncture is utilized as a bearing means between the housing members.
