Abstract

A cross-country vehicle includes a mobile chassis and a superstructure carrying a driver's cab wherein the superstructure is mounted on the chassis for tilting movement about a horizontal axis and a transverse axis and wherein a hydraulic cylinder on each side of the longitudinal axis acts between the chassis and the superstructure to tilt the superstructure about either or both axes in order to position the superstructure horizontally as the vehicle moves over rough ground.
