It's a Timberland, I've only seen pics but thought the bodies looked a little chinsy. Hard to tell from pics though.

it all depends on what you want if your just hauling chips thier cheaper bodies he builds them in house. they where building one when i picked up my truck. it was built with the intent of logs banging around in it so thier is a higher gauge steel used on the sides ill have to take a picture but its way way thicker than my southco chip body we have dumped alot of logs out of it already and havent put a dent that i can see in it.

someone somewhere was saying he buys those bodies from somone else you can rest assure thier all hand welded and fabricated i have pictures of mine being welded at his shop.

that body was around 15g's i think a regular body like you guys are talking about sell for around 9-10k
