Not enough to matter, really. They're on an angle on the inside, so that helps. When I first got the truck I made the mistake of actually tucking the logs in from the side with the tractor a little bit, then you have a potential issue. Generally they slide out in a pretty tight pile.

I don't think I got it,, at least not yet. I drove by yesterday and it was still there. It's kind of in an economically depressed area, so somebody will probably do it cheeper. So it goes.

Yeah I suppose cleaning chips out of them is better than welding cracks. Nice truck though
Pretty much. Southco is doing something different with the newer ones (like the one on my ram), it's seems to help less with strength and catch more chips. Way to go, guys!! Now that's the kind of forward thinking we're all used to today!! Lol

Yeah; I got that way in winter and remained slow heading into spring so I got a job consulting! Now Im booked out a month of weekend warrior work lol. I think I may like it better that way because when they squalk that's high I can just say, oh my mistake, I thought you could afford the best
Time will tell if I made right decision but then it was a fairly easy one to make!
I've never taken either one off. You would need something to assist. I was thinking that if I ever actually wanted to take them off, that I could weld up some kind of slip on forks attachment for the tractor. They just stay on really. I like the looks of these bodies better than the smooth sided ones. Personal preference , I guess. That and you can screw plywood from the inside to protect the sides if you wanna use it for wood.

Looks well built. I can't see anyone not using a dump for wood lol. Does the end tool box go through body i mean is it roomy can it take all gear needed like the man cabs in the big o trucks ? Essentially a truck like that and full climb gear arsenal and saws is all that really is needed everything else is optional or rent-able crane bucket etc.
Yeah, "though boxes" is what they call them (I think). And yes, they do fit everything needed, small to big saws, all the climb gear+ropes rigging gear, grcs, wraptor... poles. A little tight, but it all fits. There's a little less room in the ram tool boxes, but they fit everything too.

Lol. Yep, sounds way over this simple country boy's head!! Haha.
All of us need to retire eventually one way or another. Rope deserves it. He's one of the bad asses on this site.
