THE STEP frame conversion on the Boalloy-bodied, 16-ton gvw Bedford TL at the IRTE exhibition was carried out by Chassis Developments of Leighton Buzzard to a Bass specification, under the notifiable alteration scheme.
Bedford engineers provided the weight distribution calculations.
The Boalloy Localiner body has an overall height of 2.9m (9ft Gin). It is 6.7m (22ft) long and provides an internal width of 2.44m (8ft).
The alloy-framed grp roof panel is supported by two pillars and the floor is of 18mm-thick Wisamant plywood. Rear closure is by a wide lath alloy roller shutter.
