FRAME LAYOUTS
The dimensions in the frame layout section are intended to aid in layout of the chassis, and to help determine the best
possible combination of fuel tanks, battery boxes, the diesel particulate filter (DPF), SCR canister, and Diesel Exhaust
Fluid (DEF) tank. For your application, the layouts focus on the under cab area, with appropriate dimensional information
included for pertinent back of cab components. Not all optional equipment is included in this section. Additional compo
-
nents may be placed on the rail behind components shown. The Back of Cab components are shown primarily for refer -
ence. For more specific requirements please work with your local Kenworth Dealer. Please read the instructions carefully.
The following dimensions are consistent across the entire section to aid in the comparison of one layout option versus
another.
