| Summary: | A flexible utility body mount assembly is provided for connecting a utility body to the frame of a utility truck. The mount comprises a frame bracket rigidly attached to the truck frame and a body bracket rigidly attached to the utility body. The frame bracket includes a block and a spacer. A compression element travels through a bore within the block and connects the body and frame brackets. The block limits the lateral movement of the mount. The spacer fits between the utility body and the truck frame and allows for proper alignment between the body and frame brackets. The compression element comprises a bolt, a compression spring and a rebound element such that the compression spring is secured about the bottom side of the block while the rebound element is secured about the top. |
