9' Harbor Utility Body On 3500HD Chevy Chassis Gets It Done
Greg Martin of Platinum Chevrolet Commercial Trucks in Santa Rosa CA talks about the 9' Harbor Service Body or Utility Body mounted on a 3500HD dual rear wheel chassis. This unit has 22" deep compartments to be able to carry larger tools and equipment along with greater weight because of the dual rear wheel setup. This body also has stainless steel open top lids, a heavy duty forklift loadable tapered leg rack with outside mount for maximum width, a class IV receiver hitch and more. This is a heavy duty work truck, but still has what in the past would have been called an uplevel interior, but now standard. It is a work truck you will love to drive and it has a similar turning radius and maneuverability of an 8' standard pickup truck. See more at http://PlatinumChevyTruck.net

Lockable Transverse Compartment
This Transverse Compartment is in the front compartment of an 11' Harbor Service Body. In this case the space is opened up to go across the bed are to the back of the opposite compartment on the other side of the service body. You could also go all the way through if that was needed. Notice how the shelf that lines up with the floor is a permanent steel shelf welded in place and the additional shelves are removable and movable.
This is an option, the value of the Transverse Compartment is to give more lockable space. You lose a bit of the front of the cargo area, but we think you'll agree that it is a very worthy trade-off. This is not an expensive option and Harbor does them all the time in various ways on a number of Harbor products. This is just one of the many modification we can make to our standard products to make them more useful for your business.
