Conversions

Need something specific to your business needs?


Perhaps you need the sheer size of a box/Luton van or maybe the flexibility of a curtainsider. You may need the open space provided by a drop-side or the added bonus of a tipping facility. Whatever you need read on to discover just some of the conversions we supply.

 

 

BOX VANS or LUTON VANS

The box van is a quite simply a chassis cab with a Lightweight GRP or aluminium box on the back. The addition of a shaped 'head' above the cab creates extra space and is known as a Luton head or Luton van.

Box vans are available in lengths from 10'6" to over 18'. What you must remember is that the bigger the box the heavier the van, and so the lower the payload it can carry on a 3.5 tonne chassis cab.
You may need a low loading height on your box van which can be achieved by using a front wheel drive chassis cab, or a step in floor in the back.
You may need extra loading height (box vans are generally built with a 7ft internal height).
The addition of a lightweight tail lift can be invaluable in some business applications.

Whatever you need we can usually supply it. If you know what you need to carry but don't know what in, contact us. You have the choice of all the available chassis cabs in the marketplace and together we can find the most suitable one for you.

We also have a wide variety of quality pre owned box and Luton vans. Please ask for details.

CURTAINSIDERS

Curtainsiders are based on a 3.5 tonne chassis cab platform. They have the internal load area of a box van but because the sides can be drawn back it can be loaded using a fork lift truck. They can be produced lighter than a box van, hence, they have a higher payload. Load lengths start at 10'6" and go up to 16'. Please contact us with your specific requirements.

DROPSIDES

Drop-sides are based on chassis cabs and have a flat bed area with sides and tailgate that drop down, hence the name. They can be used with the sides on or off depending on the job required.
Drop-sides are generally made from a steel frame with aluminium sides, this helps keep the weight of the body down and so increases available payload. The body lengths start at 9' and go all the way up to 16'.The width of a drop-side is generally 6'8" to 7'. Drop-sides can be made to your exact requirements so contact us with your exact requirements.

TIPPERS

A versatile drop-side based on a single or double chassis cab. Tippers are normally made of steel for strength and can tip back (known as one way) or tip back and to each side (known as 3 way). Recent developments have resulted in a steel framed tipper with high strength aluminium sides, the benefit being an increase in payload without a loss in strength.
Most manufacturers now produce an in house tipper which means you can now get a discounted tipper off the shelf.
Tipper load lengths are generally from 9'(double cab) to 10'6"(single cab)
We can also supply a wide variety of low mileage, excellent condition, pre owned tipper trucks. Please contact us for details.
