Abstract
The main aim of this research paper is to increase the turning angle of a tractor assembly. The methodology is based on the analytical formula developed for the four bar linkage mechanism of steering. The present design that is used is restricted with the steering angle of around 35 degree. With the improved design we are trying to achieve the steering angle of nearly 55 degree. This research aim to design, develop and analyze the new mechanism for improving the steering angle. Primary function of steering system is to achieve angular motion of front wheels to negotiate a turn. This is done through linkage and steering gear which converts the rotary motion of steering wheel into angular motion of front rotary wheels.
