Why did you select Chevy and GMC trucks and SUVs for conversion?
They’re among the most popular trucks in the U.S. for a reason. The manner in which these vehicles are manufactured and the materials they use makes them the best and safest vehicles for conversion. For example, the strength of the vehicle floor to support the weight of the lift, wheelchair, and rider – up to 750lbs – is essential to maximize smooth ingress and egress, and also maintain the highest safety standards while on the road… or offroad… you choose!
How do I know my wheelchair will fit in the lift and in the truck?
Our comprehensive measuring guides for both Manual Wheelchairs and Power Wheelchairs help us confirm your measurements along with your chair, and determine which models can offer a precise fit.
Our video measurement tutorials will help ensure the correct measurements are taken. Nearly all wheelchairs will fit the 2WD models, and 4WD models may require some customization.
Does ATC Mobility offer driver side and passenger side wheelchair conversions?
Yes – we do wheelchair conversions for either the driver side or passenger side of the trucks and SUVs we convert.
What is the weight capacity of the lift in an ATC Mobility conversion?
The lift capacity in our truck and SUV conversions is 750 lbs. This means we can safely lift and secure our customers in manual chairs as well as heavy power wheelchairs with ease.
Does it matter if I'm in a manual or power wheelchair?
No – ATC trucks and SUVs can fit both power and manual wheelchairs. Our conversions also give you the option to ride in the original vehicle seat for certain rides, and in a matter of seconds, unlock it and remove it so you can ride in your wheelchair.
If you prefer to ride in your wheelchair, our comprehensive measuring guides for both Manual Wheelchairs and Power Wheelchairs help confirm your measurements, and offer a precise fit.
Is ATC Mobility affiliated with ATC Distributors in any way?
No – ATC Distributors is not affiliated with ATC Mobility in any way. ATC Mobility severed ties a few years ago to focus on our commitment to serving customers throughout every step of the wheelchair-accessible truck ownership journey. The chart below shows that ATC Distributors sells pre-owned converted trucks and SUVs directly to end consumers – that’s it.
ATC Mobility is the only manufacturer of ATC wheelchair accessible trucks and SUVs that offers this comprehensive suite of ongoing service and support to customers.
A side-by-side comparison of services we provide clearly speaks for itself:
How long is the load time for the ATC lift to transport me into the truck?
Our hydraulic lift takes approximately 15 seconds to lift the pan into the ATC truck or SUV.
Will I need a ramp to get into my ATC Mobility converted truck?
There is no need for a ramp – our innovative hydraulic system does all the heavy lifting for you. Simply back in and lock your chair to the tray, and in 15 seconds you’ll be ready to go!
Does converting a truck or SUV for a wheelchair mean less seating for my passengers?
No – the only seat impacted by the conversion is the one that holds the wheelchair user. In fact, the SUVs we convert maintain their three-row seating, and the trucks we convert retain their full back row seating. No other wheelchair-converted vehicles can match this level of seating capacity.
Does a converted truck or SUV cost significantly more than a converted minivan?
For some models, the cost can be comparable between a converted truck or minivan… and that doesn’t even factor in the sheer bad assery a truck possesses or the aftermarket potential it offers. That aside, in terms of trade-in value, Kelley Blue Book indicates trucks and SUVs dominate the top of the resale value charts, and for the first time, no cars or minivans are represented in the KBB Top 10 list.
How well does a converted ATC truck or SUV hold their value in relation to a minivan?
For wheelchair trade-in value of a minivan conversion, many dealers use a standard 10% depreciation per year. Trucks and SUV wheelchair conversions are engineered to run longer, and depreciate at an estimated 6.67% per year.
From the time I purchase my truck, how fast will I receive the new conversion?
From the time we receive the vehicle for conversion in our plant, your local mobility dealer should receive your fully converted truck or SUV in 4 to 6 weeks. From there, the final adaptations will be made based on your specific needs.
Can you help me sell my converted ATC in order to purchase a new one?
Yes – if your vehicle qualifies, we will connect you with one of our Platinum Mobility Dealer partners in your region. That dealer will manage the inspection, pricing, listing and final sale.
Are U.S. military veterans eligible for financial assistance for ATC wheelchair conversions?\
Probably – the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) offers several grants pertaining to mobility, such as the Automobile and Special Adaptive Equipment Grant (Form 21-4502) provides financial assistance for purchasing a new or used vehicle and the necessary adaptive equipment, and the Automobile Adaptive Equipment Grant (Form 10-1394) helps cover the cost of adaptive equipment like hand controls that make your vehicle easier to use.

What are my financing options for a wheelchair conversion with ATC Mobility?
Your local mobility dealer will help guide you through that process. But we’ve also gathered trusted resources to help you better understand your options and know the best places to start. Check out our Financing Resources page!
Can I get my existing truck converted for wheelchair accessibility?
Yes, as long as it is within the model years we convert. We currently convert Chevy Silverado and GMC Sierra 1500 pickups from 2019 to present, 2500 pickups from year 2020 to present and GM Suburbans or Yukon XL from year 2021 to present.
What is a recommended maintenance interval for an ATC conversion?
We recommend visual inspection of the system every 6 months.
Does ATC Mobility offer a warranty on its vehicle conversion?
Yes – ATC Mobility offers a 3-year/36,000 mile warranty on all of its converted trucks and SUVs
What are some of the advantages of a converted truck or SUV over a minivan?
