A steering bracket for a construction machine includes a body having a first end, a second end opposite the first end, and a body length defined along a longitudinal axis of the body. The body includes an elongate member adapted to be coupled directly with a frame of the construction machine. The elongate member has a first length defined along the longitudinal axis and a first height defined perpendicular to the longitudinal axis. The body also includes a short member adapted to be coupled directly with the frame of the construction machine. The short member is spaced apart from the elongate member in a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal axis. The short member has a second length defined along the longitudinal axis. The second length is less than the first length. The body further includes a plate member coupled between the elongate member and the short member.

An axle oscillation stop for a construction machine includes a body portion defining a first aperture. The axle oscillation stop also includes a first plate that defines a first through-aperture. The axle oscillation stop further includes a second plate that defines a second through-aperture. The axle oscillation stop includes a dowel pin adapted to removably couple the body portion with a frame of the construction machine. The dowel pin is at least partially receivable within the first aperture. The axle oscillation stop also includes a first fastening device adapted to removably couple the first plate with the frame. The first fastening device is at least partially receivable within the first through-aperture. The axle oscillation stop further includes a second fastening device adapted to removably couple the second plate with the frame. The second fastening device is at least partially receivable within the second through-aperture.
