ABSTRACT A compensator is disclosed for centering a frame supported steerable member comprising part of the steer- ing means for a vehicle. The compensator is connected between the frame and the steering means and comprises a cylinder containing a pair of pistons and an actuator for engaging the pistons in response to movement of the steerable member. A fluid system provides fluid resis- tance to off-center piston movement and fluid force for return piston movement and includes means for indepen- dently varying both the resistance and the return force. The compensator may include trimming means for remotely varying the center position of the steerable member and means for controlling the rate of both turning and return movements. Optional valve means provide for deactivating the compensator manually or in response to power steering system failure, overpressurization, or vehicle speed.
