Benefits That Matter in the Field
Common questions about buying, building, and keeping your truck running.
The Z-rail base comes pre-drilled for body saddles and universal mounts, meaning quicker installs, easier maintenance, and fewer headaches if you want to reposition parts down the road.
Forget cutting and welding. Stellar’s body latching system lets you move locks easily to match non-standard container layouts. Just unbolt, slide, and re-bolt. Save hours on every setup and eliminate the cost of custom lock refits.
Whether you’ve got multiple containers or inherit different hook bar heights, Stellar’s adjustable hooks make it work.
NXT18: 36–54″ manual adjustment
NXT40 & NXT52: 54–62″ manual or hydraulic adjustment
The NXT40, NXT52, and NXT68 feature a built-in speed enhancement system that cuts cylinder extension times up to 75% faster, so you can get the body on and off quicker. The soft-stop brings containers to rest without slamming ideal for preserving both your truck and the load.
Low lost load height: 7.5″ on the NXT18, 10.5″ on NXT40/52. Better hook bar approach on uneven or below-grade surfaces. Integrated wear pads means easier and cheaper service over time.
