Minimizer’s fenders were chosen to outfit a heavy-duty utilities truck, which has an Aerial Lift bucket reach of 230 feet.

The truck’s Socage TJJ230 Aerial Lift bucket has a reach of 230 feet, supporting up to six workers at a time. Now it can boast that it’s equipped with Minimizer fenders, too.
Minimizer’s fenders were chosen to outfit a truck that’s in a class all its own. This one-of-a-kind, heavy-duty utilities truck, provided by Truck Utilities Inc., is the very first of its kind in the USA.
The truck’s Socage TJJ230 Aerial Lift bucket has a reach of 230 feet, supporting up to six workers at a time. The bucket also has a 100-foot horizontal side reach. Now it can boast that it’s equipped with Minimizer fenders, too.
“Minimizer thrives on providing function and style in the aftermarket heavy-duty trucking industry to any truck. But this truck gives us special reason to be proud,” said Minimizer’s CEO and Chief Visionary Craig Kruckeberg. “We’re a one-of-a-kind Company who supports innovation and one-of-a-kind trucks.”
Bob Burns from Truck Utilities Inc. said that his Company has worked with Minimizer in the past. “We know Minimizer’s product quality is exceptional. Selecting their fenders for this truck was an easy decision.”
Burns went on to say that Minimizer’s fenders are easy to install and that the Company is enjoyable to work with. “We’re going to duplicate this truck,” he said. “We’re waiting on the bucket from Italy. When it gets in, we’re going to use Minimizer fenders again. We enjoy the ease of Minimizer’s fender installation and the truck’s finished look. It’s right on
target.”
The duplicate truck will be the second truck of it’s kind in the world. Minimizer is proud to be a leader in aftermarket trucking parts for unique heavy-duty rigs.
