An aircraft landing gear includes a shock strut with a rod slidably received within a cylinder. A beam is rotatably mounted to the rod, and wheels are mounted to the beam. The landing gear further includes a link assembly with an upper link and a lower link. The upper link has a first end rotatably connected to the cylinder, and the lower link has a first end rotatably connected to the beam. The second ends of the upper and lower links are rotatably coupled to each other by a limiter joint. The limiter joint includes a first stop associated the upper link and a second stop associated with the lower link. The stops are configured such that the first stop engages the second stop to limit rotation of the upper link relative to the lower link.
