Section 1 Introduction This manual was created to provide body builders with appropriate information and guidelines useful in the body planning and installation process. This information will be helpful when installing bodies or other associated equipment. This manual contains appropriate dimensional information, guidelines for mounting bodies, guide- lines for modifying frames, electrical wiring information, and other information useful in the body installation process. This manual is specific to chassis with 2010 engines. The Body Builder Manual can be very useful when specifying a vehicle, particularly when the body builder is involved in the vehicle definition and ordering process.
Early in the process, professional body builders can often contribute valuable information that reduces the ultimate cost of the body installation. In the interest of continuing product development, Kenworth reserves the right to change speci- fications or products at any time without prior notice. It is the responsibility of the user to ensure that he is working with the latest released information. Check Kenworth.com for the latest released version. If you require additional information or reference materials, please contact your local Kenworth dealer. 1-1 08/12
