How are they used on the backhoe?

My 'technical' english is quite bad, but...

They use it for steering. On of those is on the axle, driven by the
'siren' on the roof, it turns two other which are on 90-degree angle,
each one connected to short arm with towball axle which is connected to
steering link which is connected to another towball which turns the
wheel.

So, they're used as 4 teeth bevel gears. I just wondered why, I'd use
normal bevel/crown gear. (I'm rather inexperienced technic builder who
just woke from his dark age).
