Abstract

A fork lift truck is provided having a vehicle frame (1) and a lifting mechanism (6). An axle body (3) of a front axle of the fork lift truck is fastened to the vehicle frame (1) by at least one elastic bearing. The lifting mechanism (6) is connected with the axle body (3) by a non-elastic bearing or by a rigid connecting element. The elastic bearing is configured such that a relative movement that takes place in the event of a tilting of the lifting mechanism (6) between the axle body (3) and the vehicle frame (1) can be equalized by the elastic bearing.
