A steering system for a vehicle wheel 12 has a wheel carrier 16 for mounting wheel 12 and is rotatably mounted with respect to the vehicle about a steering axis to allow wheel 12 to be steered. A hydraulic cylinder 20 has a piston and a rigid connecting rod assembly 24, 26 extending from the piston out of cylinder 20. Rod 20 comprises a first section reciprocating into and out of cylinder 20 and a second section 26 rigidly extending from the first section to a pivot point for connecting to wheel carrier 16 offset from the steering axis. Second section 26 may be arcuate and may be integral with the first section or may be an extension member. Cylinder 20 is pivotally mounted on the vehicle and is prevented from translational movement relative to the vehicle. The arrangement may avoid lateral strains on the seals of the hydraulic cylinder.
