Abstract
A ladder type chassis for a truck is made up of two sub-frames, each comprising two parallel channel-sectioned members interconnected by cross-members, the channel-sectioned members of the first sub-frame facing outwardly to form a wider engine bay than would be the case with conventional inward facing channel-sectioned chassis members.
