In a parallelogram steering linkage, which component does the Pitman arm support?
Correct Answer:
Center link
Explanation:
In a parallelogram steering linkage, the Pitman arm connects to the steering box and pushes or pulls the center link as the steering wheel turns. The center link is the part that receives that motion and then transfers it to the tie rods and steering arms to move the wheels. The Pitman arm doesn’t directly support the tie rod ends, the steering knuckles, or a rack-and-pinion assembly (that would be a different steering setup). So the Pitman arm supports the center link.
