Give us some context to work with.

The only actuator I can think of would be one in those silly side steps with the automatic drop down step.

Imagine a frame mounted slider that could actuate and raise the jeep up and over an obstacle? Like an amp power step that could support full weight of the jeep? Damn, now that would be cool
