Rugby Unveils New Eliminator LP Dump Body Design

All Rugby Eliminator LP models are available with fold-down sides and feature EZ-LATCH™ upper tailgate mechanism, which releases the tailgate quickly and keeps it more secure when closed. New features also include a front corner post, standardized cabshields throughout the line, understructure with installed wire harness loops and bolt-on tarp hooks.

Rugby Manufacturing recently unveiled the newly redesigned line of Eliminator LP dump bodies to better meet distributor and customer needs. The line is available in carbon steel, aluminum and stainless steel construction in 9' and 11' lengths with interchangeable parts.

A 12' model is available in carbon steel and aluminum. The steel model now features a seamless, one-piece 10 gauge steel floor for optimum strength and durability. A lower mounting height improves stability on all models, while a full 9-foot inside diameter allows for full sheets of plywood or other materials.

The stainless steel dump is corrosion-resistant and highly durable. The aluminum bodies weigh up to 50 percent less than traditional carbon steel and provide a better strength to weight ratio, resulting in increased payload, improved fuel efficiency, and corrosion resistance.

Each dump body comes with a three-year warranty. The company is a leading designer and manufacturer of Class 3–7 dump bodies, landscape bodies, platforms and related truck equipment and accessories.
