SWITCHBACK

The chassis · the foundation

One tough foundation for every mission.

Underneath every Switchback is a single hot-dip galvanised chassis, engineered to be overloaded and built to outlast the truck towing it. Get the foundation right and the rest is just choosing your back.

01 How the swap works

One chassis. Switch the back.

You buy one rugged galvanised chassis, then choose the canopy that matches the job. Run the worksite all week, swap to base camp for the weekend and back again. The hard part stays the same; only the back changes.
