Silverback Ute Trays & Canopies

15/06/2026

The best weekends start where the bitumen ends.

Packed for a few days off-grid, with enough firewood to keep the campfire burning long after sunset, this Silverback tray and half canopy is loaded up and ready for adventure.

Built for the journey. Ready for the memories.

Versatility is the name of the game with this custom Landcruiser build. 🛠️
We’ve engineered a lift-off 3/4 4-door canopy that gives you the freedom to configure your rig exactly how you need it, whenever you need it.

This build is fully equipped for the job:
- Upright 130L Bushman’s fridge for those long days.
- Adjustable shelving and slide-out drawers for maximum organization.
- Half dog box and spare tyre mounting points.
- Under-tray toolboxes and dual 40L water tanks to keep you self-sufficient.

Whether you are swapping between different work requirements or prepping for a major trip, this setup makes the transition seamless.

We love hearing about our builds being put to the ultimate test! 🛠️
Murray Young has put his Silverback canopy through 40,000km of harsh gravel roads and multiple desert crossings, and he reports it’s been absolutely faultless—with zero dust ingress.
At Silverback Ute Trays & Canopies, we believe in building products that last a lifetime, which is why we proudly stand behind our work. Thank you, Murry, for the trust and the fantastic feedback!

We’re excited to announce that we are now official stockist in Cairns.

It was great to have David from MRT visit us last Thursday to have a chat.

While we stand proudly behind our Aussie-made Silverback Ute Trays & Canopies,
built from over 20 years of development and designed to stand the test of time.

We will be working closely together with the team at MRT Australia to give our customers even more options when it comes to quality imported tray and canopy setups, professionally constructed that won’t break the bank.

No matter what setup you’re after, the team at NQ Engineering & Fabrication has you covered with products we know are built to last.

Come down and see us at:

We look forward to helping you build the perfect setup.
