Chassis Design

We are having problems designing a stable chassis for this year. We have already decided to go with a 4WD Mecanum drive train and we have also already designed our arm. The arm will have 2 pivot points and a pneumatic grabber that can extended to the highest scoring peg. Our only problem is designing the chassis that is stable, has most the weight towards the bottom, and can still support an arm that can reach 10 feet. Any ideas or comments would be of great help. Thanks
