America's leading manufacturer of crane and mechanics truck bodies. IMT crane bodies are known for their Dominator series — robust steel construction, reliable hydraulic systems, and excellent parts availability nationwide. The most specified crane body on Ford F-550 platforms.
Stellar mechanics truck bodies and cranes are widely used in construction, agricultural, and heavy equipment service operations. Known for the Tmax and TC Series cranes — competitive pricing and strong dealer support across the US.
Elliott, Maintainer, and Reading also produce crane and service body combinations for specific applications. Peoria Ford works with multiple upfitter partners to source the right body for your operation and budget.
Cat, John Deere, Komatsu, and independent equipment dealers run mechanics trucks to perform field service and warranty repairs on equipment at job sites — eliminating costly shop haul-ins.
Mining companies service haul trucks, drilling equipment, and processing machinery in the field. Large crane capacity (12,000–20,000 lb-ft) on F-650 or F-750 platforms handles the demands of mining maintenance.
Large construction companies run one mechanics truck per fleet to handle breakdowns in the field. An F-550 with 9,000 lb-ft crane services excavators, dozers, and compactors without a shop visit.
Large farming operations use crane trucks to service combines, tractors, and irrigation equipment in the field during harvest. Downtime costs more than the truck — field service capability pays for itself rapidly.
Electric, gas, and water utilities use mechanics trucks to service their own vehicle fleets and infrastructure equipment. The crane lifts transformers, pumps, and heavy components that can't be moved by hand.
Oilfield service companies run crane trucks on F-550 and F-650 for pump jack service, wellhead maintenance, and pipeline equipment repair across remote locations.
