Work Truck Wednesday: Service Body With Roll-Top and Master Locking System





Keeping those tools and equipment out of sight and out of mind can be a real benefit. This great rig is a Harbor 8' Service Body with a 3-piece Cargo Bed Enclosure (sometimes called a roll-top) that slides back to get to the cargo inside and opens about two-thirds of the bed area. Then close it, lock it and it is secured. This unit also has the Master Lock System which has an internal bar to double lock all the compartments, or what is even more useful is to be able to leave all the doors unlocked and just lock the Master Lock to lock it up and go back to your work and when back, just unlock the Master Lock and you have access to all the compartments on that side. Such convenience! Included also is Harbor's famous Stainless Steel lids which are lighter and yet so much stronger.

This great body is mounted on the Chevrolet 2500HD Double Cab with the efficient gas V8, automatic, AC, and much more. Total comfort from one job to the other and as familiar as your pickup truck.
