    Yes, long stalk out from front wheel post.. activated by 3 or 4" diameter, 6' long shaft back to the buried sector.Hit the field end fence and try to turn right, Have to stop 6' back to make it, or hook and drag a mile of fence. Left turn, smooth. But turning plows ask to go right then return to other end.

    Yes that was the DC3 & SC3 in the 30 hp range. The VC was smaller but also had the chicken roost steering as did the early VAC which came after the VC. I sold my DC4 with hand clutch.

    This is a VC which used the 4 cylinder flathead continental engine, Clark built the gears and Case built the castings.

    The SC3 which is narrow front.

    Then the DC models. Mine was a DC4 wide front where the axle was back under the radiator.

    IMG_8604.jpeg
    DC4 I sold. Front wheels are solid cast with only 3 bolts holding them on… just imagine “hub pilot” front wheels, it’s nothing new lol.

    The DC has a cast iron grill with the battery behind and above the dash, and the SC has a sheet metal grill with battery under the dash….

    You both need to learn about ZipLoc bags. It is indeed, effective, but yeah, the caps tend to be a bit flimsy, which is why (after I had my first experience) I started putting the bottle in a ziploc bag to keep it contained, and sitting upright is the preferred storage method. If it's just for the binder, a little goes a long way, so a small bottle will do, or just pitch the rest if you don't use it for 5th wheel lube as well. For about 9.99, it was worth just using it for trouble-free binders so not needing the rest of the bottle I would have pitched it, but I never did, since I let other drivers use it when I was out when they had trouble with theirs. I never had to re-lube the binders after one treatment, so there is that. :)

    Sorry. Had to stop watching when I realized the narrator was a climate idiot in the opening statement he made. :biggrin_25512::biggrin_25513:
