A milling machine is disclosed. The milling machine may have a frame, first and second tracks connected to a first end of the frame, a third track connected to a second end of the frame, and a milling drum attached to the frame. The milling machine may have first, second, and third actuators connecting the frame and the first, second, and third tracks, respectively. Each actuator may adjust a height of the frame relative to a respective one of the first, second, and third tracks. The milling machine may include a damper assembly attached to each of the first and second actuators. The damper assembly may have an accumulator connected to a respective one of the first and second actuators and a control valve for controlling a flow of fluid between the accumulator and the respective one of the first and second actuators.
