A crane truck body transforms your cab & chassis into a mobile lifting platform — combining service body storage with crane mounting capability. If your work requires lifting heavy equipment, materials, or components in the field, a crane body eliminates the need for separate equipment trucks.
How Crane Bodies Work
A crane body consists of a heavy-duty service body platform with a reinforced crane mounting area behind the cab, integrated outrigger supports on both sides, and multiple lockable compartments for tools and rigging gear.

- Crane mounting area rated for popular crane brands
- Integrated flip-down outriggers for stability during lifts
- Heavy-duty subframe that distributes crane loads across the truck chassis
- Multiple lockable compartments for tools, chains, straps, and hardware

Installation Considerations
Crane body installation is more complex than a standard flatbed — it requires hydraulic line routing, outrigger calibration, and electrical integration. Our technicians handle the complete installation process.
