Upfit Upgrades and Modifications for Your Truck or Van

Your vehicle works. It could work harder. Royal Truck & Utility Trailer adds, modifies, and upgrades equipment on working trucks and vans at six locations across Michigan, so your fleet keeps up with the job without starting over.

Custom Upfitting Services at Royal Truck & Utility Trailer

Add, Modify, or Upgrade: Upfitting Vehicles Already on the Road

Not every upfit starts with a new vehicle. Maybe the van that made sense three years ago no longer fits the work. Maybe your crew changed trades, your routes changed, or you picked up used vehicles that need to match the rest of the fleet. Royal’s upfitting team upgrades the trucks and vans Michigan businesses already run, from a single liftgate to a full interior reconfiguration.

Buying new equipment instead? See our custom upfitting for new vehicles and spec it right from day one.

What Royal Can Add to Your Existing Truck or Van

Depending on the vehicle and application, Royal can add or upgrade: 

  • Holman (formerly Kargo Master) van shelving and storage. Shelving, drawer systems, and van packages retrofitted into working vans, turning wasted cargo space into an organized workspace 
  • Ladder racks and cargo racks from Prime Design and Holman (formerly Kargo Master), added to the van or truck you already run 
  • Weather Guard truck boxes and tool storage that keep expensive tools secure overnight 
  • Poly composite partitions to protect the cab and quiet the ride 
  • Reefervan insulation kits that convert a cargo van you already own into a temperature controlled hauler 
  • Liftgates matched to your cargo and your dock situation 
  • LED light packages for crews that start before sunrise 
  • Cargo security systems that protect the tools your business runs on 
  • Aluminum fold out ramps for loading equipment 
  • Wet kits for hydraulic equipment 
  • Snow and ice products installed before Michigan winter arrives, not after 

Upgrade or Replace:
When Upfitting Your Current Vehicle Makes Sense

Upgrading is usually the smart money when: 

  • The vehicle has plenty of life left, but the interior no longer fits the work 
  • Your crew changed trades and needs different storage, racks, or equipment 
  • You acquired used vehicles and want them standardized with the rest of your fleet 
  • One addition, like a liftgate or wet kit, would change what the vehicle can do 

Replacing makes more sense when the vehicle itself is the limitation. If you are weighing that call, talk to a Royal rep. We handle new vehicle upfitting too, and we will give you a straight answer on which path fits.

Upfit Upgrade Questions

Can you add shelving to a van I already use every day?

Yes. Royal retrofits Holman (formerly Kargo Master) shelving, racks, and storage packages into vans already in service. Ask your Royal representative about pickup and delivery options for your project, so the upgrade doesn’t pull your crew off the job.

Yes. Royal installs liftgates on trucks already in service, matched to your cargo, your dock situation, and your vehicle. Request a quote and a rep will confirm the right fit for your truck.

Timelines vary based on the type of upfit, product availability, and the scope of work, so your Royal representative will confirm the timeline with your quote. You can also ask about pickup and delivery options to keep downtime from falling on your crew.

Yes. Royal’s in house graphics department handles new lettering and fleet branding on vehicles already in service, so your whole fleet carries the new look.

It depends on the vehicle and the work. If the vehicle has life left and the problem is storage, equipment, or appearance, an upgrade is usually the better value. If the vehicle itself is the limit, Royal also handles custom upfitting on new vehicles. Either way, a Royal rep will walk through both options with you.
