From a quick Google I would say Alco Chassis is the type of jacking leveling system you have on you camper.

an alko chassis is a seperate chassis a camper has, same as a caravan

the twin headed transits push me pull me ones (someone post a pic please ) have alko chassis

[Luke]

Alco chassis are invariably galvanised too

They dont come on all motorhomes, usually they are an option for the first buyer direct from the coachbuilder, I went to look at hundreds (and I do mean hundreds) of motorhomes with some friends before they settled on a Bessacarr E739...the major swinging point? The one they bought had the Alco chassis

AL-KO chassis are made in Southam near banbury.AL-KO has approx 80% of the caravan market and a very large percentage of the motorhome market.
They get the vehicles in from the manufacture and literally cut everything off from behind the cab, chassis,wheels ,tyres the lot and bin it.They then make and fit there own chassis.
I am incidentaly an Al-KO approved service agent.

i have an old 1993 talbot and are thinking of taking the back off the cab to fit it to a fwd transit iwas thinking of choping the back off the transi and fabricating a fixing bracket off the back of the cab to attatch the alko chassis back to do you think this can be acheived thanks

Whilst Fiat/Peugeot /Citroen/Talbot based motor homes have commonly used the alko chassis, I'm not aware of any Transit based motorhomes with the Alko chassis
