Bradford Built builds a solid, reinforced crane-ready service body for fleets that need to mount a truck-mounted crane for utility, pipeline, or general construction work. If you’re specing a crane truck and want a body known for straightforward, no-nonsense construction, Bradford Built is a brand worth considering.
Why Fleets Choose Bradford Built for Crane Work
A crane body has to carry both routine job site tools and the mounting loads of a working crane. Bradford Built’s crane-ready construction includes a reinforced subframe designed to spread those mounting loads evenly across the chassis rails, which helps protect both the body and the truck’s frame over years of daily lifting work.
Bradford Built Crane Body Features
- Reinforced steel subframe engineered to accept a truck-mounted crane like a Tiger Crane
- Full-height storage compartments for rigging, chains, slings, and tools
- Durable powder-coat finish for long-term corrosion resistance
- Multiple chassis fitments across Ford, Ram, and Chevy chassis cabs
Chassis Options and Pricing
Bradford Built crane bodies can be built on most one-ton and chassis cab platforms. Pricing on the body is separate from the crane itself — once we confirm your chassis and body configuration, we spec the crane’s lift capacity based on your typical loads. See our Bradford Built flatbed bodies page for a look at Bradford Built’s broader lineup and construction quality.
