Abstract
A steering control apparatus for a vehicle includes a rockable auxiliary link for connecting an knuckle arm of a knuckle and the outer end of a tie rod of a steering unit to each other so that the relative position therebetween is variable. A rotor is rotatably mounted on the knuckle. A vehicle height detection link is connected between the rotor and a lower arm of a suspension of the vehicle so as to rotate the rotor in accordance with changes in the vertical stroke of the suspension. A control link is connected between the rotor and the auxiliary link so as to rock the auxiliary link in response to the rotation of the rotor, thereby changing the distance between the outer end of the tie rod and the steering axis of the knuckle.
