Peterbilt recently announced the availability of new front frame equipment mounting provisions for the set-forward axle on its Model 567. The new option will be available on orders beginning this month and provides a robust framework for accessories such as snowplows, outriggers, hose reels and more.
Engineered for ease of configuration in a variety of applications, the new mounting package offers body builders increased flexibility for more efficient upfitting, according to a statement from the company.
“The front frame structure of a vehicle plays a vital role for various body builder componentry that can transform the vehicle into a customized vocational workhorse,” said Erik Johnson, assistant general manager, Sales and Marketing for Peterbilt. “This latest offering illustrates Peterbilt’s commitment to tailoring solutions that align with the unique demands of our customers’ operations.”
The Model 567 is built for vocational versatility. Complementing the new front frame structure is its standard 2.1-meter cab, a broad selection of engines, including the reliable and lightweight PACCAR MX engines and near-zero-emission Cummins natural gas option, multiple transmission configurations to suit a range of applications and an optimized driver environment for comfort and productivity. The Model 567 also features a sloped hood design that provides enhanced visibility and a more aerodynamic profile for improved fuel efficiency.
