Many OEM’s now recommend replacing frames on many new full-frame vehicles, and Chief’s Frame-Swapper™ is the only system specifically designed to replace frames quickly, safely and profitably.

Approved by all U.S OEM’s, Frame-Swapper consists of a Shop-Hopper and, if needed, a 2-Post Lift. With just these two components, technicians can now swap-out a frame in hours rather than days, and your entire investment can be recouped after only a few replacement jobs.

Imagine replacing a frame in a fraction of the time allowed for this procedure. You can…with a Frame Swapper

We Didn’t Invent The Wheel. We Just Put It To Good Use!

When not used replacing frames, the versatile Shop-Hopper functions as a highly effective and ergonomic holding and transporting fixture that will quickly become the most valuable tool in your shop!
