Wheelbase Engineering
Wheelbase Engineering Ltd is a long established family company that in the early days did exactly that, modify or 're-engineer' the wheelbase's of truck chassis'. At that time, by today's standards chassis' were relatively crude in their construction with low level technology, however legislation is ever present and operators were forced to modify chassis' to comply with increasing demands.

Over the intervening years chassis' have developed at such a rate that they are scarcely comparable with those of just a few years ago let alone decades, now sporting high levels of sophistication in every aspect of their design, which has created need for the likes of Wheelbase Engineering Ltd whom have grown up in parallel with the truck manufacturers and are capable of offering the same service levels to ever more demanding customers purchasing chassis from a world market dominated by Europe and the Far East.

In Greek mythology Proteus is commonly referred to as 'The old man of the sea' but in this case the Proteus to which we refer is far from old as it encapsulates the most modern waterproofing systems available!
Proteus Waterproofing is a forward thinking example of a company who take customer service very seriously, therefore to enable them to take control of every aspect of their delivery requirements they're reducing their reliance on third party carriers in favour of their own 'in house' transport.
With their distinctive red and cream livery Palmer and Harvey vehicles of all size are a familiar sight to many of us, but they are rarely seen during the night unless you happen across them on the motorways between Bristol and Swansea trunking their demountable refrigerated bodies for onward delivery around Wales the following day.
Most companies would question the use of demountables when considering refrigerated bodies, sighting the loss of payload as a major stumbling block and for many that may be the case, but for those who distribute small and often loads to retail outlets weight is not necessarily the deciding factor.
Tesco drawbar combinations ideally suited to 'Metro' and 'Express' little and often store deliveries.
Tesco distribution has taken the initiative step of introducing Wheelbase Engineering Ltd designed refrigerated drawbar combinations for deliveries to their 'Metro' and 'Express' stores.
The combinations are based around a Mercedes Antos 2540L 6x2 prime mover fitted with a Solomon Commercials Ltd body and coupled to a Wheelbase Engineering Ltd drawbar trailer fitted with a second refrigerated body.
Wheelbase Engineering Ltd open 'Privately owned Test Facility' (POTF's) for third party IVA inspections by DVSA.
Having invested in DVSA standard test facilities for the inspection and certification of commercial vehicles and trailers which were originally intended for solely our own use, these test facilities have now been opened up for the use of third party clients.
The obvious benefit to our customers is that we are in a position to provide added value services, such as assistance navigating the complexities of the administrative requirements, workshop services to correct that small error in build specification and a flexible approach with timing issues.
Godfrey Syrett Ltd the Newcastle upon Tyne manufacturer of office furniture has chosen Fraikin Ltd and their preferred supplier Wheelbase Engineering Ltd to provide two alternative transport solutions for their business where the demands of their situation required radically different equipment specifications.
Product distribution to the trade is being carried out by a new fleet of DAF CF65 chassis' fitted with Wheelbase Engineering GRP box van bodies equipped with internal load restraint tie rails and removable second deck loading bars, plus 1500kg capacity cantilever tail lifts which act as the rear closure and work in conjunction with a top hinged flap.
