  Cab Chassis
A chassis (plural: "chassis") consists of a framework which supports an inanimate object, analogous to an animal's skeleton; for example in the construction of an automobile or of a firearm.
Type Four chassis is a common chassis used for Saab 9000, Fiat Croma, Lancia Thema and Alfa Romeo 164.
The Cadillac Commercial Chassis was basically a strengthened version of the long-wheelbase Cadillac Fleetwood limousine frame intended to carry the extra weight of the bodywork, rear deck and cargo area of funeral coaches and ambulances.

Type 'A' motorhomes vary in length from approximately 25 feet to 45 feet, and can be powered by a gas or diesel engine.
Smaller than the type 'A', the type 'C' motorhome is built on a specially manufactured van chassis.
The type 'C' is easily recognized by the forward cab where the driver sits.

 Type 90-II / MBT2000 Main Battle Tank | Ground Forces | SinoDefence.com
The layout of the Type 90-II is conventional, driver's compartment at the front, fighting compartment/turret in the centre, and power pack in the rear.
The Type 90-II was the first Chinese tank developed from the start with a 'systems approach', that is, it was intended to have components replaced and upgraded.
At least four diesel powerpack options have been tested on the Type 90-II/Al Khalid MBT, including two supplied by the Perkins Engine Company and each comprising of a CV-12 Condor diesel of 1,200hp (as fitted in the Challenger 1 and 2), coupled to a French SESM ESM 500 automatic transmission (as installed in the Leclerc).

 Type 80
The Type 80's all-welded hull is divided into three main compartments with the driver at the front, fighting compartment in the center, and the engine and transmission at the rear.
The Type 80s secondary armament consists of a 12.7-mm anti-aircraft machine gun mounted on the loader's hatch and a 7.62-mm machine gun mounted coaxially to the main armament.
The Type 80-II is virtually identical to the basic Type 80 except that it has a slightly greater combat weight and a greater overall length.

 1997-2001 Acura Integra Type-R Review - Modern Racer - Auto Archive
Based on the Integra coupe chassis and body style that lasted for the better part of eight years, the Type-R was first released for the 1997 model year in America and available every year till 2001, except for the 1999 model year.
During the early stages of testing the Type R, we discovered just how impervious the car is to the rigors of some of California's toughest racetracks.
Although the Type R is track-bred, the car is perfectly livable and exhibits the expected Acura level of refinement.

 VehicleVoice News: Latest Honda Civic Type R Introduced in Geneva
Civic Type R models have traditionally offered about 200HP, but with the improvements to the suspension and chassis that the 2006MY change brought being further enhanced by the Type R treatment, the driving experience should be more involving and entertaining.
Before their departure, the Type R models did much for improving Honda's image with the tuner set, Acura badge or not, and owners still talk amongst themselves on forums like Honda-Acura.net.
Honda's Type R cars look to simple engineering solutions rather than electronic driving aids like all-wheel drive, stability control, or traction control, and these cars are developed with their own engineering approach for a unique personality.

 2002-2004 Honda Civic Type-R Review - Modern Racer - Auto Archive
Driving at speed in the Type R does highlight a level of wind and tyre noise which is surprisingly intrusive for a modern car.
The R's i-VTEC four seems initially unremarkable--just another refined Japanese lump with feeble low-end torque (145 Ib-ft at a high 5900 rpm).
Power begins to pick up at 5500 rpm, and from 6000 to the eight-grand redline, you're flying, reeling in the horizon at a rate that would've embarrassed most multicylindered exotica not many years ago--delivered with a raw, visceral yowl.

 DON'T GET TYPECAST
A Type II ambulance is built into a light-duty commercial chassis van with a raised roof for additional headroom.
A Type II is the least expensive ambulance to meet the GSA standard and generally is used by fire departments and private companies where funding is restricted, usage is low or there's no requirement to carry extra equipment.
The Type III has a large patient compartment, room for equipment, a low floor height and a short wheelbase, but the engine access is more difficult than in a Type I. It is often favored by fire departments that want the additional space and lower floor height.

 Test Ride: 2004 Honda CRF250R
Whereas the other four-strokes in the class--old and new designs--appear as if the chassis is shrink-wrapped around the motor, this Honda looks like you could slip it into place with your eyes closed--there is plenty of light between this motor and the chassis.
What Honda calls the "type four" (or fourth-generation) aluminum frame utilizes a mixture of castings and extruded tubes as with all previous aluminum models, but this frame uses tubes with a smaller cross-section than any Honda has used before, as well as slimmer and lighter castings.
It chose to debut its type four chassis with the CRF250R, and it is as strong a performer as the engine mated to it.

 Tuning Linx - Honda Civic Type R Concept
All Type R engines are normally-aspirated, which deliver smoother power delivery throughout the rev range, allowing power to be transferred through the chassis more easily, improving traction and acceleration.
Instead, a Type R is based on clever, but simple engineering solutions rather than electronic gadgetry.

 Q&A MH Chassis
The Ford chassis is commonly used in coaches up to 37 feet but is extremely underpowered and overloaded when used for these larger motorhome designs, causing the end user to complain about low power and handling problems.
The Class C motorhome chassis is fairly simple since the choices are not near as broad as the Class A chassis market.
Class C chassis are heavy-duty van chassis and when the coach manufacturer constructs an excessively long body, it results in a long overhang behind the rear axle causing the handling to suffer.

It's somewhat reminiscent of the Type II panel van, with sheetmetal where the rear side windows would normally be.
They were built to be practical, with lots of the bells and whistles left off: less chrome, no clock, one sun visor, etc. They have their own body serial numbers welded just behind the spare tire; the one pictured here is number 33.
The main difference between the Variant II and the Brasilia was in the engine's position, since Brasilia's was placed as in the Beetle and Karmann-Ghia (Type 1, I think), and Variant II remained with the pancake one.

 Triumph Speed Four 600 - Road Test & Review - Motorcyclist Online
The engine is fairly smooth at lower and higher revs—though it buzzes irritatingly between 5500 and about 8000, right where you ride most of the time—and feels plenty potent in the company of the low-buck bikes, with a pleasing willingness to rev and a hot soundtrack to boot.
Triumph wisely left the TT's chassis unaltered in the translation to the Speed Four, so it has by far the best—and most adjustable—suspension, an aluminum-cartridge KYB fork up front and a fully adjustable shock mated to the powdercoated alloy swingarm out back.
As a result, the Four takes a bit of aggression to make the chassis work best; it's not as happy pottering around at a five-tenths pace as, say, the Honda 599.

 Type Four chassis - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Type Four chassis was a common front wheel drive platform used in the 1980s for the Saab 9000, Fiat Croma, Lancia Thema and Alfa Romeo 164.
It emerged as an agreement between the four carmakers to reduce development costs.
For example, the doors from the Fiat Croma fit directly on the 9000, but are lighter, due to less side impact protection.

The same chassis and engine design that took the Wehrmacht from France to Libya to Stalingrad and back again is the same design that I've seen personally propel a Volkswagen to a quarter mile run in ten and change.
We are concerned with the four common types of Karmann Ghias.
I have seen these model types reported incorrectly in reputable publications by respected authors, so don't believe everything you read or hear unless it comes from a Volkswagen source.

 WebCars! Guide to the Jaguar E-Type
The D-Type chassis consisted of a stressed monocoque behind the engine with a space frame in the engine area; the E-Type would feature the same configuration.
Another big improvement was in the brakes, with drums being replaced by discs at all four corners, another feature that the E-Type would benefit from.
The list of mechanical features was, for 1961, stunning: a double overhead cam engine, fully independent rear suspension and four wheel disc brakes (inboard at the rear no less, an exotic touch usually found only on race cars) proved the E-Type to be an advanced automobile.

 Beetle Year Identification and Chassis Number Table
Volkswagen began a chassis numbering sequence that ran consecutively from the 1940's through 1964.
The third digit is the last digit of the year, for example 5 would indicate 1965 and 2 would indicate 1972.
So, if the first three digits of your chassis number is 118, then it would mean that it's a 1968 Beetle.

 Type 2 Trans Installation
Installation of the tranny, which was assembled with the Berg intermediate housing, allowing the use of a type 1 shift housing, began with a trial fit into the chassis with the Berg rear mount installed to check for clearance at the frame horns as well as the package tray floor.
One note here is that we were using the TG Fab Chassis Brace, which has brackets that normally sandwich between the trans mount and the end of the frame horns.
Since the axle centerline was higher in the type 2 trans this meant we had to lower the car to give the back wheels the proper camber.

 2002 Jaguar X-Type - Four Seasons Test - Automobile Magazine
It's probably fair to say that the Jaguar X-type has not lived up to expectations, neither for its manufacturer nor for those of us here who have been living with it for the past year.
And when it came to discussions of the car's four-wheel-drive system-a planetary center-differential arrangement with a 40/60 front/rear default split-drivers were unanimous.
While all agreed that a power-oversteering, rear-wheel-drive car would be more fun at the track, the all-weather upshot of the car's four driven wheels more than made up for its in extremis limitations.
