ABSTRACT:
A steering compensator for providing resistance to movement of a steering system away from a preselected center position until a steering force exceeds a preselected value which may be varied remotely while the vehicle is in operation. The preselected center position may also be varied remotely while the vehicle is in operation by a trim mechanism. The compensator may be rotary or linear and the resistance force may be provided by a variable spring force and/or a variable magnetic force. Optional features include a liquid system for viscous dampening and an undercut seat and cam arrangement for centering without significant slack or overshoot.
