ABSTRACT:
A pivotable wheel mounting system can pivot wheel mounting devices of a vehicle in a retracted position so that the vehicle conforms to a vehicle carrier volume that is in accordance with local transport laws and regulations. The pivotable wheel mounting system extends the wheels of a vehicle to positions for substantially stable support in a driving (non-transport) mode. The pivotable wheel mounting system reduces the vehicle frame volume when the vehicle is in a transport mode. The pivotable wheel system is preferably for compost treating vehicles with endless track units.
