A glider kit is basically a new truck without an engine, transmission or rear axles. You do have the option of ordering a remanufactured engine in a Detroit, Caterpillar or Cummins configuration. A glider kit comes with a Title for the year of the glider kit your are purchasing even though you are using some of your old components. The Freightliner Glider Kit is the most complete kit on the market because it includes a spare parts box which includes all your plumbing, suspension, air intake, brakes valve assemblies and suspension parts if ordered that way.
We will assemble your unit for you or we can drop ship it to your location. Our glider kits come with a self help CD and instruction manual which will walk you through the process of assembling your glider kit if you choose to do it your self. Freightliner of Grand Rapids and Kalamazoo have been selling Freightliner Glider kits since 1985. We are the No.1 Glider kit sales out let in the United States. We have highly trained sales people to walk you through the process of building the correct kit for you. |
