Still quite common on Dafs I think. Our entire fleet had them until we changed to MAN in 2015 (also changed to a different “logistics provider” who may well have spec’d them differently. I notice that the couple of 2015 plate CFs that we’ve temporarily hired in are also fitted with steering mid-lifts. I’d always assumed (probably incorrectly!) that it was the Daf way of doing things.

Its a good way of doing things in my humble, though there’s probably a weight penalty of some sort as well as even more moving parts to take into account if you have hydraulics/blowers and associated extra tanks etc to fit along the chassis.
