A complete VBG MFC system is always delivered factory-fitted with coupling and drawbeam, and comes with an installation kit and electric cabling.
Basic requirements for installing VBG MFC systems.
In order for VBG MFC to function in your vehicle, the coupling must obtain the truck’s wheel-based speed via CAN bus. This information is retrieved from the truck’s bodybuilder unit (often called FMS CAN or SAE J1939).

Then we need you to provide the following information about your vehicle.
- Vehicle brand
- Mounting height – will the coupling be mounted centrally, underslung, or low underslung?
- Will the vehicle be equipped with underrun protection?
- With or without hydraulics?
- Screw kit for mounting the drawbeam to truck frame?

MFC-compatible endplates for underrun protection
If you want to install underrun protection on your vehicle with the MFC system, the VBG MFC Endplate Underrun Protection EUP 180-MFC is compatible with your VBG MFC solution.
HOW DO I INSTALL MY MFC SYSTEM?
You can choose between underslung installation, for which you can choose from two different coupling mounting heights, or central frame installation.
Underslung installation is done with VBG Drawbeam CMS-MFC
Central installation is done with VBG Drawbeam AMS-MFC
Which drawbar system can I use for my MFC system?
For haulage vehicles and tankers, we recommend the VBG Multi XF drawbar system.
The VBG Optimal drawbar system is ideal for hook-lift trailers where it is necessary to reverse over the drawbar.
For dollies, there are two options for drawbar heads.
