THE BASIN UPFITTING 6X6
We built this MONSTER 6x6 with a super modified F-550 Chassis and expertly "butchered" Knapheide Mechanics body (KMT1) - strictly to show off our custom fabrication skills and draw attention to our extensive work-truck building capabilities. This truck will be making it's rounds across the U.S. after its debut at SEMA 2024.

SOME RECENT BUILDS
MERCH
Stackin' Bodies - Heavyweight Long Sleeve
Let the people know! We made this shirt in partnership with Knapheide featuring a massive back graphic of stacked service bodies from our lot. This material is always a fall/winter favorite in the shop as it's soft and durable. The heavyweight, ring spun, 100% cotton shirt is garment dyed for that lived-in feel with almost no shrinkage at home.
