On each side of the front and the rear of the crane has an outrigger.
Explanation:
车头 = front

车尾 = 车身后半部 rear (as in rear doors of a car) e.g. 車尾 箱 = boot

两侧 = on each side

You could express it this way:

On each side of the front and the rear of the crane has an (extendable) outrigger.

Hope you find it helpful.
