The Datsun 1200 uses a tradition recirculating-ball Steering Gearbox with behind-the axle linkage.
Terminology
- 1. Idler Arm. This bolts to the subframe rail on opposite side from the steering gearbox
- 9. Steering Gear Arm, a.k.a. "Pitman arm"
- 19,20. Side Rod, a.k.a. "tie rod". Left and right hand differ
- 12. Cross Rod, a.k.a. "drag link"
- 21, 22, 23, 24. Side Rod Socket Ass'y a.k.a. "tie rod ends". There are four separate parts with left and right-hand threads. Each "socket" has a "ball stud", which is similar to a Ball Joint.
The six ball studs have a Filler Plug on the bottom of each. Replace it with a grease fitting and fill it during each periodic "lube, oil and filter".
Power Steering
Sunny Trucks had optional power steering:
