This page gathers Crane Carrier Company models outside the named ranges, from the 1066CX and 2566 through the 3084 series to the HC98A and UC1014 chassis. Crane Carrier Company of Tulsa, Oklahoma, builds specialised chassis mainly for refuse trucks and fire apparatus for the North American market.

The register lists here 9 versions with six cylinders throughout, unladen weights from 16,365 to 31,270 kg, gross weights from 17,230 to 31,840 kg and widths from 2,420 to 2,760 mm; one version is recorded with a length of 9,440 mm.

These compact yet extremely heavy chassis are typical of the North American waste-management and fire-service market, where cab-forward chassis with a short wheelbase and high payload are needed for packer bodies, aerial ladders and pump bodies; Crane Carrier thereby supplies mainly municipal customers in the United States and Canada, who value a short service response time and ready availability of replacements.

On these heavy cab-forward chassis, the condition of the six-cylinder diesel and the automatic transmission, rust on frame and axles under continuous use with packer or firefighting bodies, the operation of the hydraulics and power take-off, and brakes and suspension at the high gross weights all count; parts run through the Crane Carrier dealer network in North America.
