What to Look for When Buying a Cab & Chassis in Texas
- GVWR and payload rating — determines what body weight and cargo the truck can legally carry
- Cab-to-axle (CA) measurement — distance from back of cab to center of rear axle; must match body length spec
- Frame rail dimensions — inside width and flange height must match the upfitter's body mounting requirements
- PTO (power take-off) provisions — required for hydraulic pumps, cranes, and aerial lifts; verify engine and transmission PTO compatibility
- Wheelbase — longer wheelbase improves stability with heavy bodies
- Single vs. tandem rear axle — single for lighter work under 26,000 lbs GVWR; tandem for heavy vocational builds

Cab & Chassis Truck FAQ
What is cab-to-axle (CA) measurement and why does it matter?
Cab-to-axle is the distance in inches from the back of the cab to the center of the rear axle. Body builders require a minimum CA to fit the desired body length while keeping the load centered over the axles. Buying a chassis with the wrong CA for your intended body is a costly mistake — verify the spec with your upfitter before purchasing.
Can I buy a used cab and chassis and have a custom body installed?
Yes — used chassis are routinely re-bodied. The key is verifying the frame is straight and undamaged, checking that the chassis spec (GVWR, CA, PTO provisions) matches your intended body, and confirming there are no title or registration issues from a previous commercial use.
What is a PTO and which trucks have it?
A power take-off (PTO) is a mechanical device that transfers engine or transmission power to auxiliary equipment — hydraulic pumps, cranes, aerial work platforms, and refrigeration units. Not all cab and chassis trucks come PTO-ready. When ordering new, specify PTO provisions up front; retrofitting is more expensive on some drivetrains.
