Ford Transit power steering pump - hydraulic power steering

The power steering pump for the Ford Transit is the most important hydraulic power steering component in the Ford Transit. The power steering system makes it easier for the driver to turn the wheel and perform all road manoeuvres. The power steering pump in the Ford Transit operates at all times, even when the steering wheel is not about to turn. A pressure valve allows the pressure to remain high regardless of engine speed. Both the 2014 Ford Transit and older Ford vans have power steering pumps. Since 2000, power steering has become standard on vans and passenger vehicles. The power steering pump in the Ford Transit allows the driver to use less force to turn the steering wheel. This significantly improves driving comfort, reduces the fatigue associated with driving a van and makes manoeuvres such as parking much easier.
