Why Buy Freightliner

Freightliner Custom Chassis Corporation combines advanced technology and engineering with premium components and exceptional workmanship to deliver the best motorhome chassis on the road today. These are just a few of the outstanding features of the motorhome chassis models manufactured in our plant.

Allison® Transmissions
Allison's 3000MH six-speed and 2500MH six-speed transmissions are state-of-the-art. Electronic controls provide smooth shifting for exceptional performance and fuel economy. Automatic shifting is self-adjustable for smooth shifts during climbs, descents and virtually any road condition.

Exhaust Brakes
Exhaust brakes offer increased brake and tire life as well as greater vehicle control by slowing the vehicle under stress conditions quickly and safely.

Neway® Air and ZF™ IFS Suspension/Sachs® Shock Absorbers
Our larger, premium-line chassis feature Neway air suspension, ZF IFS suspension and Sachs shocks for improved stability, superior handling and increased driver comfort. Air springs absorb energy for a softer ride. Equalizer beams and rigid trailing arms control axle location, drive and brake reaction, and vertical load. Stabilizer bars and beams widen effective load centers on axle and maintain a high resistance to vehicle roll.

60-Degree Wheel Cut (with optional ZF IFS)
FCCC chassis offer the tightest turning radius of any motorhome chassis on the market. Enhanced maneuverability means you’ll be able to better negotiate your way through the toughest back roads, RV parks and campgrounds.

Cummins® Engines
FCCC offers a variety of choices from the top name in diesel-engine design. With horsepower ratings from 300 to 500 hp, these engines will deliver the performance you expect when you need it most and provide a lifetime of no-hassle maintenance. And all of the latest engines utilize , proven to meet emissions standards required for the 2010 legislation.

Nine-Inch Frame Construction

Our sturdy, nine-inch-frame construction creates a solid foundation for your motorhome that minimizes stress on the coach, so windows and doors perform properly for the life of the vehicle.

Higher Resale Values
FCCC's diesel chassis, with its longer-life engine and premium components, commands a higher resale value than a gasoline-powered chassis.

Rear-Engine Diesel Design
Rear-engine diesels provide a host of benefits, including more floor plan options, quieter interior environments, more comfortable rides, lower fuel costs and effortless hill climbing. You'll also appreciate the enhanced reliability of a diesel engine and the fewer maintenance stops.

Optional Raised-Rail Designs
Our optional raised-rail designs allow for more pass-through storage under the coach.

Side-Mounted Radiators
Side-mounted radiators are available on our raised-rail designs with Cummins ISL engines. This unique design features a variable-speed fan that automatically increases and decreases fan speed as needed to reduce noise and decrease power loss.
