A simple steering control system using a forced differential system for crawler vehicles when abnormal steering operations occur is described turning radii differ when the moving speed changes, and the turning direction differs from moving forward to backward. To produce steering feeling, it is necessary to build computing functions into the steering control system. This paper reports on a steering control system that generates steering feeling by using a conical linkage system, which connects the slope of the conical bottom surface to the movement of the lever, and changes the steering wheel stroke to the revolution of the conical bottom circumference. This system is based on the rule that the distance from the top point of a cone to any point on the conical bottom circumference is equal.
