ABSTRACT:
A construction vehicle has pairs of tandem roadwheels on each side thereof. Each of the roadwheels is mounted to the vehicle via a parallelogram linkage. The roadwheels are each driven by drives universally mounted to transmit power from differentials thereto. Interconnected hydraulic cylinders act between the frame and each wheel to adjust the relative vertical positioning therebetween and provide equal tire loading on the tires on each side.
