Abstract:
A vehicle includes a chassis and a lift assembly. The chassis includes a frame defining a pair of tow points. The lift assembly includes an adapter assembly and a lift device. The adapter assembly includes a first adapter and a second adapter, each adapter configured to be coupled to one of the pair of tow points, and each adapter defining an adapter aperture, and a cross member extending laterally across the vehicle and received by each adapter aperture. The lift device includes a lift base and a pair of receivers coupled to the lift base and configured to engage with the cross member of the adapter assembly. The pair of receivers support the cross member in a vertical direction. The adapter assembly is configured to receive and redirect a lifting force of the lift device to selectively reconfigure the vehicle between a lowered position and an elevated position.
