A positive locking thread device, the SideWinder is very effective and can be used in conjunction with the JYD Rescue Struts for optimal lifts. Weighing just 19 pounds, each SideWinder provides eight inches (22 cm) of lift, enough space for safe and affective patient removal.

Why bring us your vehicle for service & maintenance?
Why let us service & maintain your vehicle?
- *Licensed Mechanic & Certified Mobility Equipment Technicians to take care of all your service needs. Regular automotive service/repair facilities likely don’t have the knowledge and expertise to work on accessible vehicles, which can lead to misdiagnosis, longer than necessary repair($$$) or cause more problems than exist.
- *Maintain Warranty: If factory maintenance schedules are not adhered to causing system failure(s), the warranty is nullified & void. All Issues pertaining to neglect are not covered.
- *Proactive vs. Reactive Maintenance: Many people only have their equipment serviced when something fails. Some feel “if nothing is wrong, it doesn’t need service”. The reason for preventative maintenance is to avoid costly breakdowns. You don’t want to wait until something breaks.
- “If you see us more for small things, you won’t have to see us much for big things”
Dear Sidewinder:
I want to thank Sidewinder for their amazing service. Everything was so well organized and smooth it made the transaction completely enjoyable. The people were great, they went over the top for us and the van was exactly what we had hoped it to be according to the pictures. I would recommend anyone to Sidewinder Conversions. They really look after you.
– Harold Goodwin
Thank you so much for all your support in finding a van for Jennah. She has had so much fun this summer going swimming, shopping and just cruising around with her friends, family and caregivers in her new wheels! It’s running great and we have to hide the keys from her step sisters! Hope all is well with you and your dog Tank.

Dear Sidewinder staff:
We have had Sidewinder do all the conversion work on Nicole’s vans. Nicole had two vans in very serious accidents that were replaced by family, insurance and help from MFCD. Sidewinder went well beyond the service delivery that would be expected. Graham, John, David and the other staff were more then helpful and courteous. They were always available and prompt whenever we emailed or called. I would recommend them highly to any one in need of a conversion for their vans.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank Graham and the staff for all that they have done for us. This includes the emotional support in knowing that they were there for us in our time of need. Thank you to all of you.
