The new Heavy Duty Body Builder Manual offers guidelines for truck specification and design during body-planning and installation processes, Kenworth Truck Co. representatives note. Providing guidance specific to Kenworth chassis with 2010 engines, the 268-page manual targets T800, W900 and C500 models typically used by body builders.
The guide is useful when specifying a vehicle with components required for the 2010 EPA emissions solution, the company emphasizes. It contains detailed sections on cab and chassis dimensions, exhaust and aftertreatment designs and functionality, frame layouts, chassis and cab electrical systems, body mounting, frame modifications, and routing. Moreover, the manufacturer affirms, involving body builders early in the process of vehicle definition can help reduce body-installation and chassis-rework costs. More information on Kenworth’s 2010 emissions solution and/or a copy of the Kenworth 2010 Heavy Duty Body Builder Manual can be obtained from local Kenworth dealers.
