The BCA-3000 arrives with \u003cstrong\u003ethree different mounting systems\u003c\/strong\u003e — four straddle adapters, two leaf spring adapters and two boltdown adapters — so the same cart carries a unibody shell today, a pickup box next week and a frame section after that, without anyone welding a bracket in the corner of the shop.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe second thing that separates it from a fixed cart is the height: \u003cstrong\u003e28\" to 38\", adjustable\u003c\/strong\u003e. That range is not about clearance, it is about where the panel sits relative to you. Width adjusts up to 60\" and length up to 132\", and the whole thing is rated at 3,000 lbs on 8\" x 2\" HD poly casters.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eWill It Fit?\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eThe body you are carrying.\u003c\/strong\u003e Adjustable up to 60\" wide and up to 132\" long.

A cart with one mounting method makes you improvise for the other two, and improvised support is where a shell gets tweaked.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eAdjustable in three directions, and why that is the whole product\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eWidth, height and length all adjust, which is what makes the \"universal design\" phrase in the feature list mean something specific. In practice it means one cart in the corner of the shop instead of three, and it means the cart still fits the next job, which is not a vehicle you have seen yet. It also means the setup step is real: a cart adjusted to the wrong width supports a shell at the wrong points regardless of its rating.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eCasters, and the powder coat\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003e8\" x 2\" HD poly casters are large for a cart, and the reason is the loaded roll. A small wheel stops at every joint, cable and dropped bolt; a large-diameter poly wheel rolls over them and does not flat-spot when a load stands on it for a month. The powder-coat finish is there because these carts spend their lives near blasting media, solvent, primer overspray and damp shells — a painted frame in that environment starts rusting where it is chipped, and a rusty cart marks the panels it carries.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003ePerfect For\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eRestoration shops\u003c\/strong\u003e running frame-off projects where the body has to leave the chassis and stay somewhere for months.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eCollision repair\u003c\/strong\u003e moving shells and sections between the bay, the booth and storage.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eCustom and hot rod builders\u003c\/strong\u003e handling a mix of unibody and body-on-frame vehicles.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eSerious home restorers\u003c\/strong\u003e with the floor space for one properly adjustable cart rather than a set of stands.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003ch3\u003eWhat's in the Box\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePer this product's own feature list: the adjustable cart on 8\" x 2\" HD poly caster wheels, four straddle adapters, two leaf spring adapters and two boltdown adapters, in a powder-coated finish.

It is not a lifting device rating, and a body cart is not a vehicle support stand — nobody should be under a shell that is only on a cart.

At 289 lbs this travels crated on a freight carrier, which means you need a way to take it off the truck or you elect collection at the carrier's terminal; a residential address carries a residential fee, applied once; and the crate must be checked before you sign for it.
