I have a CA wide front, not that hard to steer unless you spread it out for two row plowing.

My narrow front is slightly hard to steer with the front wheel weights on. Don't really need them for the 3pt mower I think (580lbs).

A good quality ball bearing spinner on the steering wheel would be a good start. Grease the spindles with the front end jacked up. 30 lbs of air in the front tires would also be beneficial. Turn the front tires around narrow and it will steer easier. OOOpps I guess you can't with the new fangled steering arm welded to the left spindle arm !!! seesh......

Even though that is not needed by me on my CA's, I do admire inventors and others that think outside the box, whether it is a great success or not. Their ability to see a problem and come up with a solution is admirable. Thank you for posting the video.
