Just rolled a completed body out of the shop featuring something we're pretty excited about: a newly designed galvanized 2-step bumper with built-in provisions for a walk-ramp.

The design challenge here was making the two functions coexist. A step bumper needs solid, predictable footing for drivers climbing in and out of the box all day, while a walk-ramp needs a clear, secure landing zone that doesn't interfere with the steps. The new design handles both — and the hot-dip galvanized finish means it'll shrug off road salt and dock dings for the life of the body.

Photos below show the bumper on the finished unit. If you're spec'ing a body for high-frequency delivery routes, this is worth a conversation.
