Abstract: A load distributing and articulating system in an all terrain vehicle of a tractor and a trailer arranged along a longitudinal axis. The trailer has a trailer body with a load section thereon. The system comprises a first pivot for articulating rotation between the tractor and the trailer in a vertical plane perpendicular to the longitudinal axis, about the longitudinal axis; a second pivot for articulating rotation between the trailer body and the load section, in a vertical plane along the longitudinal axis, about an axis perpendicular to the longitudinal axis; at least two variable length actuators disposed between the tractor and the load section for controlling rotation about said first and second pivots; an adjustable controller for varying the lengths of the variable length actuators independantly of each other; and a device for preventing the adjustable controller from varying the lengths of the variable length actuators, and for enabling variation of the lengths thereof.
