ABSTRACT:
A chassis frame particularly suitable for fire service vehicles comprises a pair of main bearers extending longitudinally and spaced transversely of the vehicles, each including at least one angled portion suitably disposed between the front and rear axles and enclosing an obtuse angle of less than 180.degree. towards the wheels. Engine mounting means are situated rearwardly of the front axle and an engine output shaft is positioned above the axle and between the axles and upper portions of the wheels. This facilitates adaptation to different service vehicle requirements, the installation of drive transmissions and service equipment such as fire fighting equipment whilst allowing for ease of access and flexibility in use.
