Chevron 12 Series LCG™
Get the best of both worlds with Chevron's Series 12 LCG carrier (Low Center of Gravity). The LCG. provides a low load angle and high dump angle plus lowers the deck height 5” over conventional carriers.
The lower deck height allows for transportation of taller loads such as forklifts, plus loads are at arms length and easier to secure for transport. The Low Center of Gravity increases stability and enhances the handling performance of loads. The LCG provides a super low load angle for low clearance vehicles and exotics. The high dump angle allows for easier removal of damaged or disabled vehicles. Chevron's LCG is engineered and built to exceed all expectations.

Fuel tanks must be under the cab. Fuel tanks can extend up to 6 inches behind the cab only in combination with a frame-mounted pylon. Fuel fill must not behind the cab. The preferred location for the battery box is under the passenger seat or under the cab, battery boxes in other locations may require relocation.
* Inside bed widths will vary based on siderail option selected.
** A minimum of 49" between the inside of the rear tires is required.
‡ The outside frame rails of the chassis extending behind the cab must be free of fuel tanks, air tanks, exhaust stacks, etc. The LCG™ carrier is not compatible with chassis that have inboard mid-ship fuel tanks such as the Ford 550 and Dodge 5500.
Air-bag rear suspensions are recommended for the lowest possible load angle but the LCG™ carrier can be mounted on some chassis with leaf spring suspensions. Most chassis components behind the cab outside the frame must be at least 2 inches below the top of the truck frame to clear the bed slide rails.
Important: All ratings are based on structural factors only, not vehicle capacities or capabilities. Specifications shown are approximations and may vary depending on chassis selected.
