A lift truck (50) including a rotatable drive unit (60) having a steerable drive tire (66) also includes systems and methods for improved stability control while turning, . A first slide mechanism is coupled via the element (112) to the rotatable drive unit (60) , and a second slide mechanism (100) is mounted to a caster plate (86) . A steering mechanism coupled to the rotatable drive unit is moved to steer the steerable drive tire, causing the first slide mechanism (112) to interact with the second slide mechanism (86) and to produce a downward pressure (88) and/or reduce the downward pressure on a caster (70) with its wheel (74) mounted to the caster plate (86) .
