DAF FAS – chassis with a liftable trailing axle: from the classic 2000 and 3300-series types to CF and XF105, six-cylinders, 268 to 355 kW, up to 28,000 kg gross weight
In DAF's chassis logic, the S marks a liftable trailing axle that, together with the basic 4x2 FA chassis, makes a 6x2 three-axle truck: unlike the fixed axle of the FAN chassis, it can be raised when empty or partly loaded to save tyres and tolls. The collective page spans the classic DAF 2000 and 2800-series types of the 1980s, the 3300 and 3600 series and the current CF75, CF85 and XF105 chassis.

The register lists here 44 versions with 268 to 355 kW from six-cylinders throughout of 9,186 to 12,902 cm³ displacement, unladen weights from 8,690 to 18,000 kg, gross weights from 20,000 to 28,000 kg, lengths from 6,600 to 11,650 mm and widths from 2,460 to 2,600 mm.
The liftable trailing axle suits duties with changing loads, such as groupage haulage, tankers or concrete mixers, where vehicles often return partly loaded or empty; on DAF 6x2 chassis it is the more common variant compared with the rigid FAN axle. Raising the third axle also cuts tyre wear and the road tolls charged according to the number of axles bearing on the road.
On a used example, the hydraulics or pneumatics of the axle-lift mechanism, corrosion on the frame and axle guides, the condition of the engine and turbocharger and the gearbox and clutch count; on the older 2000 and 3000-series types, parts availability through specialist dealers, on CF and XF the regular DAF network.

What to check before buying
- Check the hour meter against the service records — a replaced instrument is the most common gap.
- Compare the data plate and chassis number with the papers.
- Check the weights in the papers against the figures here — attachments change them.
- Ask about parts availability for this build year — the running costs hang on it.
