A steering assembly for steering a vehicle in response to a steering input, the steering assembly includes an axle extending between a pair of wheels, a plurality of linkages, a primary electric drive source, and a secondary electric drive source. The plurality of linkages includes a pair of knuckles operatively coupled to the wheels, a tie rod extending between and coupled to the pair of knuckles, and a drag link attached to one of the knuckles. The primary electric drive source is operatively attached to the drag link, and moves the drag link in response to the steering input to transfer movement through the plurality of linkages to turn the wheels. The secondary electric drive source is operatively attached to one of the plurality of linkages to move the one of the plurality of linkages in response to the steering input and independently from the primary electric drive source.
