An input shaft is rotationally supported by the housing portion and extends into the cavity at its one end and is operatively connectable to a drive axle of the vehicle at its other end. An output shaft is rotationally supported by the housing portion and extends into the cavity at its one end and is operatively connected to the input shaft at its other end. The output shaft is offset in height from the input shaft. A steerable track system for a vehicle is also described.
A steering assembly for a vehicle, the steering comprising a body having a housing portion, the housing portion defining a cavity in a bottom side of the housing portion, and a plurality of apertures defined in the bottom side of the housing portion, the apertures defining different positions on the bottom side of the housing portion to any one of which a pivot axle is removably connected, wherein the different positions are laterally offset from each other.
