Completed installation envelope
A bare chassis has no universal body-installed working envelope. The approved body-builder drawing must establish width, height, swept area and service access for the completed machine.

What the specifications mean
The empty rear frame is the reason to consider this model. Agree the intended body, mounting design and completed weight distribution with the body builder before using a truck payload headline as an allowable installation load.
Mirror width governs this reference envelope; tire width is narrower. The cab-height dimension does not include an unspecified body or accessory package, so a completed machine still needs a transport survey.

A brochure configuration is not an individual marketplace machine. Serial/PIN and build information are required for exact verification.
Used 725 Bare Chassis inspection priorities
- Request the OEM installation approval, frame modification history and as-built body mounting information for any already converted chassis.
- Inspect articulation, frame rail repairs, hydraulic routing and the interface to installed equipment. Verify completed axle loads and braking documentation with the supplier.
Configuration-aware inspection: these checks are triggered by machine category, installed configuration and technology package. Brochure-listed technology must be physically present, active, licensed and calibrated on the used machine.
Hours, condition and ownership cost
Hours are context, not a condition grade. Duty cycle, idle time, maintenance evidence, wear-system measurements, structural repairs and installed technology should be evaluated together.
Cost drivers to model
- Build a delivered-cost estimate from chassis, body, integration, commissioning and mobilization quotes. Compare a complete machine with the same scope rather than comparing bare purchase prices.
- Obtain separate service responsibilities for the chassis and installed equipment, including access to components behind the new body.
