The MacQueen Remount Advantage

A MacQueen Remount provides distinct financial and performance advantages. Let us guide you through our process and demonstrate how we can save you money while extending the lifespan and value of your original purchase.

Cost Savings Customers typically experience savings of 30-50% on full-size ambulance remounts compared to purchasing a brand-new emergency vehicle.

Time Savings Lead times generally range from 90 to 120 days from when we receive either your ambulance to be remounted or the new chassis—whichever arrives later. We also maintain a stock of certain chassis models to potentially shorten your wait.

Custom Options We offer extensive customization capabilities, including converting ambulances from Type III to Type I and remounting onto any chassis brand. From aftermarket suspension systems tailored for specific chassis to comprehensive interior modifications or a complete module refurbishment, MacQueen has all your needs covered.

CAAS Certified Remount Guidelines

MacQueen adheres to all recommended guidelines and specifications related to the new chassis, as well as the installation of components and equipment in the remounted vehicle. This includes ensuring the compatibility of key components with the make and year model of the chassis being used.

Prior to production, MacQueen conducts a series of steps to assess the feasibility of the proposed remount vehicle. This process involves visually inspecting the ambulance body module to determine its condition and suitability for continued service life, including its compatibility with the new chassis.

Additionally, as part of the viability process, MacQueen will provide a Scope of Work document outlining a detailed proposal to the customer. This document will also confirm compliance with FMVSS requirements, weight balance, and payload analysis, with a minimum payload of 1,500 pounds required.

Furthermore, any additional deficiencies or defects discovered during the production process will be promptly communicated to the purchaser for mutually agreed-upon remediation. MacQueen will maintain written documentation of each step of the production process, including evaluation of the original vehicle, engineering analysis for major modifications, the production sequence, and quality control checks.
