How And Why to Stretch or Shorten Your Truck Frame
Commercial trucks are strong and versatile tools. However, one truck cannot always do it all. Sometimes it becomes necessary to make modifications to get your truck to do exactly what you need it to. Lengthening and shortening the frame of the truck to increase or reduce the wheelbase is one of the common methods to achieve these needs. Many trucks, such as short hauling, farm use or contracting, have had their frames modified. But it takes the right expertise to do the job right. Here at CarCo we match the needs to the job. We specialize in customization and fabrication and can do the job for you. Have specific ideas or other needs?
