Dodge A 100 thread
I believe they used the same platform that the sweptline trucks used from '61-'71. Solid front axle, drum brakes, etc.
I think they run drag link steering, just the same. There may have been power steering drag link boxes. The ones that I've seen are manual.
The wheel is big. It would be best with a suicide knob/ spinner, but there is certainly enough leverage to get it around.
It's definitely not a cornering vehicle.
