ABSTRACT:
A pivotal support for a fluid ram extending a stabilizer arm from a vehicle frame. The pivotal support has a pivot axis which is offset from the longitudinal axis of the fluid ram. The position of the pivot axis of the fluid ram relative to the vehicle frame is shifted from a position inboard of the pivot axis of the stabilizer arm to a position outboard of the pivot axis of the stabilizer arm when the stabilizer arm is moved from the transport position to the ground engaging position. An integral U-shaped casting at one end of the fluid ram is joined to the journal portion of a journal bearing. The rotational axis of the journal bearing is offset from the longitudinal axis of the fluid ram so as to eccentricly and pivotally join the fluid ram to the vehicle frame. This mounting arrangement increases the moment arm of the stabilizer arm when rotated to a ground engaging position and brings the stabilizer arm closer to the vehicle frame when rotated to the transport position.
