Fontaine Modification has expanded its steering conversion offerings for Freightliner trucks with a new standard sit-down dual drive modification for Freightliner M2 106 Plus medium-duty conventional trucks.
“Our new standard sit-down dual drive conversion for Freightliner’s M2 106 Plus offers a more streamlined, cost-effective solution,” said Jamil Young, president, Fontaine Modification. “With a simplified design, improved cab space, and faster production, customers can count on reliable performance without sacrificing core functionality.”
The standard modification adds a right-hand driving position to enable the driver to operate vocational vehicles from either the right or left side in applications like refuse collection, street sweeping, paint striping and pavement maintenance. The standard model also offers additional flexibility for in-cab equipment controls, as well as improved ergonomics over the Legacy M2 standard sit-down dual drive.
Additionally, Fontaine engineered a simpler, more efficient modification process for the newest sit-down dual drive. Customization options include the choice between a T-shift or push-button gear selector.
Freightliner M2 steering conversions are performed at Fontaine’s flagship modification center in Charlotte, North Carolina.
