Work Truck Wednesday Is A Chipper Day!

 





Yes, it's a chipper day. Branches, tree limbs, brush, let run it through the chipper and into the Forestry Chipper Body from Knapheide. This unit is a 14' long model and is heavy-duty as all Knapheide products are. To carry that load, this body is mounted on the Chevrolet Silverado Medium-Duty 6500 with 23,500 lbs. GVWR. It is equipped with the infamous Duramax Diesel and matched with the Allison Automatic. Plenty of creature comforts going from job to job and DOES NOT require a Commercial Drivers License! The list of options includes aluminum wheels!

This unit won't last!

Work Truck Wednesday Celebrates The Contractor Body!

 





Today is Work Truck Wednesday and we're showing off a versatile work truck that is commonly called the Contractor Body. Why? Because so many contractors love this truck. It begins its life as a flatbed. In this case, a 12' flatbed. To that, we add two 8' long toolboxes mounted on top of the bed with fold-down doors and open-top lids like service bodies have. Then, there's the tapered headboard giving the truck body a smooth look as if it were made for this chassis. Next, we add a heavy-duty forklift loadable material rack, fold-down short gates around the back, a load divider inside the bed at the back of the toolboxes to be able to separate some loads. To top it all off, we add a great rear heavy-duty bumper with a full-width step plate and last is the trailer receiver and wiring plug. Sorry, one more thing: Look at those 60" long underbed toolboxes!

Oh, one more thing of importance. This great Scelzi body is mounted on the Chevrolet Silverado Medium-Duty 4500 with 16,500 lbs. GVWR, plenty of bells and whistles, and designed to carry the load for a long, long time especially since it is matched with a famous Duramax diesel and Allison HD automatic!
