ABSTRACT:
An apparatus having a vehicle frame with an end, a pivot arm pivotally connected to the vehicle frame and having a tire-receiving surface thereon, and a motor connected to the pivot arm. The pivot arm is movable between a first position aligned with the vehicle frame and a second position generally transverse to the vehicle frame such that the tire-receiving surface is below and adjacent the end of the vehicle frame. The motor serves to move the pivot arm between the first and second positions. The pivot arm includes a first arm pivotally connected at one end to one side of the frame, and a second arm pivotally connected at one end to an opposite side of the frame. The tire-receiving surface is a cross-member extending between the first and second arms. An actuator is connected to the motor so as to actuate the motor so as to move the pivot arm between the first and second positions.
