ABSTRACT:
A stabilizer system for a rear dumping vehicle, which system includes an independently operable stabilizing member mounted on each side of the vehicle chassis. Each stabilizing member is urged downward by the ram of a hydraulic cylinder against the tires of the dump body. Hydraulic control is applied to each hydraulic cylinder through a hydraulic conduit which interconnects the respective cylinders with a source of hydraulic pressure. The hydraulic pressure is applied by opening an electrically actuated valve in each conduit. The valves are preferably controlled by limit switches which are actuated by pendulum means oriented to swing transversely of the vehicle chassis. In one arrangement, a manually operated switch operates the hydraulic valves in the conduits to actuate the rams of both cylinders, thereby substantially fixing the position of the chassis with respect to the wheeled rear axle.
