Grapple Truck Body Build

T1 steel is 100ksi; typical mild steel, A36, is 36ksi, so just about 3 times stronger in tensile strength.... I think you'll be more than fine.


The disaster/hurricane trucks I've seen haven't been 1/4" even in the floor. Those are some of the lightest built trucks I've seen, built for yardage.

Coming right along, and I'd say you're fully utilizing your work space!


Are you going to have a "mother's attic" or just a cab protector?
 
I wanted something a little different with some angles to take some of the boxy look out of it but still have some places for clearance lights on the front. So I had some left over steel that was bent from the last box I built and this is what I came up with. I still have to cut the holes for the lights up front.
