Abstract

A vehicle system includes a controller. The controller is configured to be communicably coupled to a plurality of actuators of a vehicle that facilitate repositioning a plurality of tractive elements coupled to a chassis of the vehicle. The controller is configured to (i) control the plurality of actuators to selectively reposition each of the plurality of tractive elements through a range of motion to attempt to maintain the chassis level and (ii) drive each of the plurality of actuators toward a mid-stroke position while continuing to attempt to maintain the chassis level and while the vehicle is moving.
