The stability system includes a pair of front downriggers coupled to the front end of the chassis, a pair of rear downriggers coupled to the rear end of the chassis rearward of the at least one rear axle, and an outrigger assembly coupled to the chassis between the front axle and the at least one rear axle. The outrigger assembly includes a pair of outriggers that are selectively extendable laterally from the body assembly at an angle.
