The first axle beam is rotatable independently of the platform. The second axle beam is rotatable independently of the platform. The vehicle includes a plurality of first wheels fixed to the first axle beam and configured to move the platform. The vehicle includes a plurality of second wheels fixed to the second axle beam and configured to move the platform. The vehicle includes a link attached to one side of the platform at a third pivot. The link is movable about the third pivot independently of the beams to constrain movement of the platform in response to articulation of the first axle beam and/or the second axle beam.
