6. Model 45D Truck Specifications
The most popular trucks for this application are the F-450 Ford 4x4 and the Chevy or GMC 3500HD 4x4.
Many of the trucks in the 1-ton classification necessitate the use of an under hood or other special application “Wet Kits”, be sure to discuss this with your sales representative when considering trucks.
84” Cab to Axle Minimum
Note: Be aware of the location of fuel cells. Some 1-Ton Chassis Trucks have a fuel cell aft of the rear axle. This cell interferes with the mounting of the tree spade and must be replaced. Contact BIG JOHN Mfg., Inc. or your sales representative for more details.
