Does anybody know if the Cat's have the F-N-R Switch like the Volvo's? The Volvo's switch is to the right of the bucket controls.
Thanks!

Are you talking about an alternate direction changer? Meaning you dont have to use the one mounted on the steering wheel. If so, yes, I was in a 938 a few months ago that had a F N R switch on the bucket joystick. I liked the feature, a lot of the other guys hated it, or didnt even realize it was there. We didnt have the machine very long. It was a rental, and about the time we returned it, it was burning 3-4 gallons of oil a day.

Thanks for the answer. I like the one in the Volvo's and just wanted to see if the cats have it.
