A second beam is coupled with the first beam and extends rearward in a second longitudinal direction angled upward relative to the first beam member. A second hinge member coupled with the second beam. A bracket is positioned upward of the second hinge member and is coupled with a third hinge member. A fourth hinge member is coupled with the first beam or the second beam.
