An autonomous self-driving assembly that includes a shape-shifting tread unit. The tread unit is utilized the support the mobility of the assembly while also of a shape-shifting capacity to brace the assembly in a narrow space of a confined area. In this manner, a load-based application may be performed with the assembly in a stable and reliable manner. Once more, the shape-shifting tread unit includes jacking mechanisms to support the raising of the vertical profile of the unit to attain the bracing. At the same time, tensioners are used to cooperatively shorten the vertical profile so as to maintain a predetermined range of tension on the treads of the unit during the shape shifting.
