Transporter Chassis and double cab

Transporter Dropside image The Transporter chassis and double cab are the ideal platform for a wide variety of specialist applications and conversions. From tippers to boxes, dropsides to refrigerated bodies, the Transporter forms the perfect foundation.

Both single and double cab versions are available as T30 models with a rugged long wheelbase ladder chassis and galvanised bodies. The single cab seats three, while the double cab can carry a crew of up to six. With four doors standard on the double cab (including childlocks on rear doors), it’s easy to get in and out of the vehicle, while inside there’s useful added storage space under the three-seat bench to store valuables or tools. The combination of front wheel drive (with the running gear situated at the front of the vehicle), ABS and perfectly balanced weight distribution, make the Transporter chassis and double cab a safe and secure base to build upon.

The Transporter chassis and double cab dropside is designed to take the effort out of loading and unloading. Supplied as a factory fitted option, the strong aluminium dropside body can be specified for either version. It’s the perfect choice for businesses that simply require a practical workhorse.

Gaining access for your load is made as simple as possible. The easy to operate fasteners release the lightweight aluminium dropsides and tailboard and give easy access to all three sides of the load platform area. Once your load is in place, a number of lashing rings can be utilised to firmly hold your cargo in position. These specially designed lashing rings, when not in use, fold down neatly and sit flush within the load platform surface. When it comes to loading or unloading your Transporter dropside, you’ll find it just couldn’t be simpler!
