CM builds a clean, well-finished crane-ready service body that works well for utility, pipeline, and general construction fleets that need to add a truck-mounted crane. If you’re looking for a crane body with a reinforced subframe and full-height storage, CM is one of the brands we build most often out of Wharton, TX.
Why Fleets Choose CM Crane Bodies
A crane body has to do two jobs at once — carry tools and materials like a standard service body, and support the mounting loads and vibration of a working crane. CM’s crane body construction includes a reinforced subframe designed to spread those loads evenly across the chassis rails rather than concentrating stress at one mounting point, which extends the life of both the body and the truck’s frame.
CM 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
CM crane bodies can be built on Ford, Ram, or Chevy chassis cabs — see our CM crane bodies for Ram 5500 and CM crane bodies for Ford F-550 pages for chassis-specific fitment and pricing. Pricing on the body itself is separate from the crane — we spec the crane’s lift capacity based on your typical loads once the body and chassis are confirmed.

We also carry RKI crane bodies and STI crane bodies. See our full crane bodies for sale lineup to compare brands, chassis options, and pricing.
