47X Chassis

ENGINEERED FOR LONG LIFE AND QUICK UPFIT

PRESENTING THE TOUGH, LIGHTWEIGHT VOCATIONAL TRUCK CHASSIS

The heavy-duty vocational frame underneath the 47X is engineered to stand up to the demands dump trucks, concrete mixers and crane trucks experience on infrastructure and construction projects, while being lighter weight, more durable, easier to service and extremely Truck Equipment Manufacturer (TEM) friendly.

PURPOSE BUILT


SINGLE-CHANNEL RAILS

Not only does the 47X offer the industry’s first high-strength single-channel rail rated 3.8 million RBM without an insert, there’s also a new, stronger 9.5mm rail that delivers the same RBM rating as an 11mm while saving nearly 100 pounds.

47X Single-Channel Rails

SPLAYED FRAME RAILS

Splayed frame shape at the front of the chassis allows for lower engine and radiator packaging that optimizes hood slope for increased visibility and safety, as well as improved engine serviceability.

FULL PARENT FRONT FRAME RAIL EXTENSION OPTIONS

Multiple parent rail front frame extension options are available, eliminating the need for bolt-on extensions or reinforcements.

EASIER UPFIT

With our proprietary digital frame layout tool, dealers can make sure your truck is spec’d to give truck equipment manufacturers the space they need to help make upfit easier direct from the factory.

STANDARD ALUMINUM CROSSMEMBERS

Cast aluminum forward, rear suspension and end-of-frame crossmembers are standard across the X-Series vocational lineup to provide greater weight savings.

HEAVY-DUTY FASTENERS

Phosphate-coated Class 10.9 fine-thread fasteners offer a high clamp load and don’t require maintenance.

FRONT TOW ASSEMBLY OPTIONS

A number of towing device options mounted directly to the front frame head for incredible strength, allowing you to pull your truck free without damage.

ROBUST ROUTING AND CLIPPING

Frame rail stand-offs keep wiring and air lines separated and away from the chassis, decreasing chafing and debris build-up for reduced corrosion. Heavy Duty and TEM-dedicated routing and clipping options are available for more complex upfits.

POWER TAKE OFFS

From snow plows and concrete mixers to bulk haul tractors and everything in between, the wide selection of options on the 47X lets you choose the right combination of PTOs – FEPTO, REPTO and transmission-mounted PTOs – so you can install the equipment you need for your application.
