WHY CHOOSE
AN ADAPTIVE MANUFACTURING WHEELBASE EXTENSION?
“The Amarok has done a great job carrying our new camper. It is incredibly stable, shows no sign of any porpoising and has plenty of power to carry the load even at 110Km/h. It’s also comfortable and quiet.
Thank you to you both and the rest of the AM team for helping us achieve a great new rig.”
David & Leanne, SA
A Big thanks to Hayley and all the team at Adaptive Manufacturing.
You were always responsive and reassuring as we went through a process that we were doing remotely and were very unfamiliar. Keep up the good work. Twelve out of ten!

All did a fantastic Job and very professional and friendly. I am looking forward to now finishing off the Canopy and will hit the road in May, would love to stop by to say hello to the team.
Peter C, VIC
Our experience with Adaptive Manufacturing for our Isuzu extension was very satisfying, all our questions and concerns were answered and attended to promptly without any fuss.
After explaining the required outcome for the vehicle (Carry a slide on camper) Hayley and Peter consulted with us to achieve the required result, our Intrepid Camper is not ready as yet, but we have had a sample on the Ute for a try out and i looks like the combination will be perfect.
Martin F, VIC
We had a great experience with Adaptive. Total transparency and continued communication throughout the process. The after sales support is fantastic also.
Would definitely purchase my next ute through Peter, Hayley and the team.

I can still carry what I need for work and don’t have to worry about where to park the trailer.
Tim G, Electrician, QLD
At last I can put some weight in front and on top of the rear axle, not entirely behind it. This is where the weight should be.

Having a decent tray large enough for a pallet of Gyproc and can still access my tow bar as before.
