1. A vehicle corner system for a dual-axle wheels assembly, the vehicle corner system comprising:
a sub-frame;
a first wheel interface having a first spinning axis about which a first wheel spins when connected to the first wheel interface;
a first suspension linkage comprising a first arm connected to the sub-frame and to the first wheel interface, the first arm is rotatable with respect to the sub-frame about a first axis that is substantially perpendicular to the first spinning axis;
a second wheel interface having a second spinning axis about which a second wheel spins when connected to the second wheel interface;
a second suspension linkage comprising a second arm connected to the sub-frame and to the second wheel interface, the second arm is rotatable with respect to the sub-frame about a second axis that is substantially perpendicular to the second spinning axis; and
a motion restrainer comprising a piston assembly interconnecting the first suspension linkage and the second suspension linkage, the motion restrainer is to controllably increase and decrease a length of the piston assembly;
wherein the piston assembly is disposed between the first spinning axis and the second spinning axis.
