Chassis Extension Ford Transit FT150 Long Wheelbase (1986–2000) – Load-Bearing Basis for Tow Bar and Rear Bike Rack

The chassis extension for the Ford Transit FT150 with long wheelbase provides the load-bearing foundation for rear-mounted fittings on your motorhome. This SMV chassis extension is compatible with the Ford Transit of the years of construction 1986 to 2000 with a wheelbase of 3570 mm and serves as the basis for a tow bar or a rear bike rack. The maximum length of 1500 mm is supplied, which you cut to the required length to suit the body of your motorhome.

Technical Features

• Delivery length: 1500 mm, individually reducible to the required length depending on the motorhome type.
• Material: Steel, permanently hot-dip galvanised for protection against corrosion.
• D-value: 14.5 kN – suitable as a basis for mounting a variable tow bar.
• Max. nose weight: 150 kg as a foundation for rear bike racks and further attachments.
• Approval: with EC type approval.
• Vehicle reference: designed specifically for the Ford Transit FT150 long wheelbase.

Your Advantages

• Flexible length: As you cut the 1500 mm to size yourself, the extension fits precisely to the overhang and rear garage of your motorhome.
• Versatile basis: A tow bar and rear bike rack can be mounted on the extension.
• Long-lasting corrosion protection: The hot-dip galvanising protects the steel construction even under permanent outdoor use.

What Is a Chassis Extension Used For?

What does a chassis extension do? It extends the load-bearing vehicle chassis rearwards so that attachments such as a tow bar or a rear bike rack can be securely fitted to the overhang of the motorhome. Vehicles without a chassis extension, or with one that is not load-bearing, are thereby provided with the necessary base structure.
