Our Body Cart PLUS is our first fully adjustable, universal heavy duty body cart.
It has (6) 5” phenolic casters are rated for 500 lbs each, rating the cart at 3,000 lbs.
It will adjust anywhere from 1” to 50” wide and from 14" to 132" long.
This cart is adjustable in height from 27“ to 41” high. Each of the post have independent height adjustment. The center post also has either 3“ or 6” of adjustment.
The mounting posts have an angle bracket on top with 2 slots on the top and 2 slots on the side so you can bolt your car body down securely and roll it anywhere you want. Optional straddle pad posts and or leaf spring posts are available at additional costs.
Elite Body Cart
Our Body Cart Elite is the newest, fully adjustable, universal heavy duty body cart.
It has 8”x2” polyurethane over cast iron wheels, rated for 1,250 lbs each. The cart is rated at 3,000 lbs capacity and will extend out to 12 feet long. The cross member on each end is 5 feet wide, the posts will adjust out 4 feet wide.
Imagine, a 12 foot long cart with a wide stable base and large wheels that roll over cracks and up onto the trailer with ease. This is the ideal cart to transport bodies to the blaster or painter.
We use the same clamps we used on our AutoTwirler PRO so there is absolutely zero wobble on the posts. Each post has about 10“ of height adjustment, for an overall cart height of 28” to 38“ high. The top posts are held in place with two 3/4” structural bolts.
The Elite cart comes standard with 4 straddle pad mounts. Optional Bolt Down posts (like on the Body Cart Plus) or Leaf Spring posts are available, as additional accessories.
Classic Body Cart
Our Body Cart CLASSIC is your ticket for a low cost, universal heavy duty body cart.
It has 8”x2” polyurethane over cast iron wheels, rated for 1,250 lbs each. We rate the cart at 3,000 lbs because (1) most bodies don’t exceed that weight, and (2) once you exceed 3,000 lbs, the casters get more difficult to swivel in the travel direction.
We have optional 10” solid rubber casters, 2 swivels and 2 rigids, that can be substituted for the 8” casters. No brakes on the rubber wheels. The weight capacity of rubber casters are 500 lbs each, which de-rates the cart capacity to 2,000 lbs max, assuming even weight distribution.
This cart is fixed height at 22“ high. The mounting pads are designed to hold a frame or frame rails on your body.
