A steering linkage for a short wheelbase vehicle such as a wheelchair is presented. The device is designed to steer all four wheels of a vehicle using a single actuator. Misalignment between the wheels is negligible over the entire 180 deg turning range of each wheel. The design, theoretical analysis and construction of a prototype are described.
