Trucksmith KneeHi: a class N1 low-floor van conversion with a 2,299 cm³ diesel, a 4,330 mm wheelbase and a 3,500 kg gross weight
Trucksmith Limited is an Irish commercial vehicle fit-out company that builds the KneeHi conversion range: panel vans with a lowered load-floor for more standing height inside, built onto the chassis of another maker's base vehicle. Such conversions are aimed at businesses whose staff need to stand upright in the load area without switching to a tall-roof body.

The four-cylinder diesel engine displaces 2,299 cm³, with a 4,330 mm wheelbase and a 2,090 mm width - the dimensions of a mid-size van. Kerb weight of 2,250 kg leaves about 1,250 kg of payload against the 3,500 kg gross weight, a solid figure for a low-floor conversion, since lowering the floor itself adds little extra weight.
As a class N1 panel van, the KneeHi can be driven on a category B licence as long as the gross weight stays under 3.5 t. The lowered load floor gives extra standing height without increasing the vehicle's overall height, which benefits service vehicles and shelved fit-outs where staff enter the load area often.
When buying a used low-floor conversion, checking the lowered floor structure for through-rust and for properly executed welds at the join with the original underbody matters most. Ground clearance in the lowered section is less than on the standard vehicle, so the underbody should also be checked for damage from scraping the ground.
