Abstract
An outrigger for stabilizing a vehicle, including telescopic members and a power actuator to extend and retract the outrigger. The outer telescopic member is pivoted adjacent one side of the vehicle and extends beneath it. A combined guide and support member causes initial outward extension of the outrigger to be horizontal but toward the end of the horizontal travel the guide and support member causes outer end of the outrigger to move downwardly.
