All Terrain Warriors - Specialised 4x4 Mining Vehicles

All Terrain Warriors is a manufacturer of 4x4 buses and other specialised 4x4 vehicles for companies within the commercial drilling, mining and mineral exploration industries.

Our 4x4 buses are renowned worldwide for their safe operation, sturdy and long-lasting construction, operating in extreme terrains and highly corrosive environments. All vehicles are based on Japanese or European 4x4 truck chassis that are commonly available through existing dealer networks, and incorporate specially developed passenger modules by All Terrain Warriors.

Passenger modules for 4x4 buses

All Terrain Warriors' specially developed passenger modules can be easily replaced once the service life of the truck has been reached and then transferred onto a new replacement chassis. As the passenger modules are built from the most durable materials available, they remain an asset for years to come.

Some buses are now fitted to their 4th chassis after 12 years of extreme service. This works out to be extremely cost effective when compared to replacing entire vehicles. All internal and external panels are of composite construction and are extremely tough, easy to repair and even easier to maintain.  

Design and construction of specialised 4x4 vehicles

With over 20 years experience in building 4x4 special vehicles, All Terrain Warriors has a wealth of expertise in areas such as CAD design, custom engineering, composite body construction, electrical systems design, suspension upgrades, and specialised accessories.

Our manufacturing facility can meet even the toughest of safety requirements when fitting out new vehicles for specific mine site requirements. There are even several Warrior 4x4 buses now in service in underground hard-rock mines that meet stringent MDG15 U/G standards.

4x4 vehicles for mining environments

Warrior now builds three different types of 4x4 to suit specific personnel transportation needs.

The Multicab truck series features 10 to 14 seats with an interchangeable, large, all-steel, dropside work tray or service body fitted to the rear. Based on MWB Fuso FG84 (or alternatively Isuzu NPS 300) cab / chassis with 6,000kg GVM and 9,200kg GCM.

Our 4x4 bus series features up to 21 seats and is based on MWB Fuso FG84 (or alternatively Isuzu NPS 300) cab / chassis with 6,000kg GVM and 9,200kg GCM.

The large 4x4 bus series includes up to 37 seats and is based on LWB Hino GT 1322 (or alternatively Isuzu FTS 800) cab / chassis with 13,000kg GVM and 21,000kg GCM. Custom orders for 4x4 vehicles with higher seating capacity are available on request.

Road eligible 4x4 vehicles

All vehicles are built in accordance with the ADR 59 rollover standard, eliminating the need for a secondary ROPS frame, and are eligible for road registration in any state in Australia. Front cabins have dual air bags and all bus seating complies with ADR 68.

Our vehicles provide greater levels of operational safety, and are the preferred type of 4x4 vehicle used by Federal Transport for general domestic transportation in both on and off-road conditions. Seating is specially designed without armrests or any protrusions that may catch or hook up clothing or tool belts.

Vehicles offer large coach-size seats covered in heavy-duty canvas, with a wide aisle between them again for easy access and mobility within the module. There are three seats in the front cab (if needed), which offers plenty of space and should not be compared to smaller 4x4 or van type seating.

Heavy-duty suspension systems for off-road mining vehicles

A specially developed spring body mounting system eliminates the high stress placed on the chassis when travelling in rough conditions. Extra heavy-duty suspension systems combined with larger, off-road super single-wheel conversions improve cornering stability, comfort levels and reduce equipment failure.
