A steering system for an agricultural vehicle with a hydraulic steering motor incorporates an internal pump, a distribution valve, an input shaft which in use is coupled for rotation by the steering shaft of a vehicle steering wheel, and connectors for hydraulic lines leading to a high pressure source of oil, to an oil reservoir and to hydraulic actuators connected to the steerable wheels of the vehicle. The steering motor is located remotely from the steering shaft and is coupled for rotation with shaft by hydraulic rotary actuators mounted on the steering shaft and the input shaft of the steering motor and arranged in a closed circuit with one another.

Having thus described the invention, what is claimed is: 1. A steering system for a vehicle comprising: a hydraulic steering motor, wherein the steering motor is located remotely from a steering shaft and is coupled for rotation therewith by a first gerotor operatively coupled to the steering shaft and a second gerotor mounted remotely on an input shaft of the steering pump and arranged in a closed circuit with one another. 2. A steering system as claimed in claim 1, wherein the hydraulic steering motor has an internal pump, a distribution valve, an input shaft which in use is coupled for rotation by the steering shaft of a vehicle steering wheel, and connectors for hydraulic lines leading to a high pressure source of oil, to an oil reservoir and to the gerotors. 3. A steering system as claimed in claim 1, in which the gerotor mounted on the steering shaft and the steering motor, respectively, have a different displacement from one another. 4. A steering system as claimed in claim 1, wherein at least one of the gerotors and the hydraulic lines connecting the gerotors in a closed circuit with one another is formed of a synthetic or plastic material. 5. A steering system as claimed in claim 1, wherein the gerotor mounted on the steering shaft is rigidly mounted in the cab of the vehicle.
