Pickup Truck to Work Truck and Back in Minutes
The Durashell Slip-on Truck Body Makes Debut
PHOENIX, Ariz. (December 14, 2009) — Fleetwest Transferable Truck Bodies has released Durashell, a new line of fiberglass composite utility bodies to accompany the Load’N’Go steel body line.
The Durashell truck bodies are lightweight yet durable service bodies that come in 6 models: Durashell 140/170 (short bed/long bed), Durashell 165, Durashell 230, and Durashell 325/365 (short bed/long bed). The features include easy four point clamping system (no holes drilled installation), brake light, interior lighting, jack receptacles, double rear doors, optional slide out parts drawer, side doors and compartments, front and rear windows, and ladder racks.
According to Richard Johnson, manager of Fleetwest Transferable Truck Bodies, “This is a great choice for companies looking to become more ‘green’. The transferability of the Durashell bodies allows someone to maximize the use of their existing trucks without increasing their fleet.”
The Durashell slip-on truck bodies include the following innovative features:
- Cost-saving benefits because of universal fit for all major brand, standard pickup trucks
- Perfect fit for both new or existing used fleet vehicles
- Extra security – standard key locks plus pad-lockable security
- Lifting jack receptacles for easy installation and removal or optional built-in forklift tunnels
- Models available for both long bed and short bed pickup trucks
Transferable truck bodies have other significant benefits. Productivity and technician efficiency are greatly improved as a result of lowered downtime. The slip-on truck body can be transferred to a leased vehicle in an emergency without completely unloading/reloading, in a matter of minutes. The Durashell line is a great alternative to the panel van, especially if four wheel drive is a necessity. Once the Durashell is up fitted for your technicians needs, it will not need to be repurchased when the pickup is replaced. Signage is also only purchased once resulting in more time and cost savings.
The Durashell product line increases productivity, reduces cost, and improves efficiency. From pickup truck to work truck and back in a matter of minutes, the Durashell is the latest in work truck technology.

More Than 13,500 Sprinter Vans Recalled - News - Automotive Fleet
More Than 13,500 Sprinter Vans Recalled - News - Automotive Fleet
So what are you going to do if your Dodge Sprinter Van is in the shop? How much time is it going to take you to unload your tools and supplies... then to load them into a replacement vehicle... then to unload them... then to reload them back into your Van? Sounds like a LOT of work to me! Guess what... it is WORK you WON'T get paid to do.
If you have a Dodge Sprinter Van -- unload it a final time and load it into a new DURASHELL 370 pictured here! Yeah... I know the picture is of a GMC... but guess what you can put it on a GMC, Dodge, Ford, or even Toyota Tundra without further modification. Go to www.fleetwest.net for more info.

New Powerbody work truck utility bed
This fully removable tool box has everything... a generator, compressor, and welder... all in one. The controls are all behind the driver side front cabinet secure and out of the weather. Also, you don't have to climb up into the bed to connect hoses, power, or built in jumper cables. This unit is made for work anywhere. If you're a framer, you can leave this unit on site by off loading via the built in jack recepticles, with all your tools, nailers, and supplies securely in the 1000 pound capacity drawer. Everything you need on site, then you can take the truck to the lake do some fishing... without carrying all your tools with you everywhere you go. Just one of the many jobs this tool box was made to handle.

NEW REMOVABLE UTILITY BODY FOR ½ TON PICKUP TRUCKS
The Load'N'Go Lowboy makes Debut
PHOENIX, Ariz. (May 15, 2009) — Fleetwest Transferable Truck Bodies has started delivering a new product for its Load'N'Go line, the Lowboy. Load’N’Go is the industry’s first fully removable and transferable full size steel utility body. The Lowboy incorporates Load’N’Go’s ease of transferability while being light enough to be utilized in the ½ ton pick-up truck market. Enormous storage and the security of steel combined with light aluminum diamond plate are the foundation of this utility bed.
“This is the last tool box you will ever have to buy, as it will outlast many trucks” according to Richard Johnson, Manager of Fleetwest Transferable Truck Bodies. “Technician downtime is also minimized. When the truck is in the shop for service, your technician can still be working with all his tools in a rental truck, by transferring the Lowboy in a matter of minutes.”
The Load’N’Go Lowboy includes the following innovative features:
- Cost-saving benefits because of universal fit for all major brand, standard pickup trucks
- Perfect fit for both new or existing used fleet vehicles
- Extra security – standard key locks plus pad-lockable security
- Built-in forklift tunnels and lifting jack receptacles for easy installation and removal
- Models available for both long bed and short bed pickups
The Load'N'Go is a steel transferable service body with aluminum diamond plate, full length side boxes, and a 1000 pound capacity slide out drawer that universally fits Ford, Dodge, and GM pickup trucks. Load’N’Go has a “no holes drilled installation” and built in forklift tunnels for easy transfer from one pick-up to another.
A slip-on truck body from Fleetwest is a service technician’s smart choice for low cost, maximum flexibility, and minimum downtime. “Given the depressed economic conditions, price quote requests on our web page (www.Fleetwest.net) have skyrocketed lately,” Johnson states. “Technicians are looking for the best price for a replacement work truck, when they come across a transferable truck body.” “They realize they can ELIMINATE the cost of a new service truck, because they can use an existing pickup truck as a work truck.”
