Knapheide Dealer Serving Springfield, MO

Note: this page covers Springfield, Missouri — not Springfield, Illinois, where Drake-Scruggs is headquartered.

Drake-Scruggs Equipment supplies Knapheide truck bodies and equipment to customers throughout Missouri, including the Springfield, MO area in the Ozarks region. The drive between our Illinois shop and southwest Missouri is a long one — around 310 miles via I-55 and I-44 — so most of our work with Springfield, MO customers happens by phone, email, and CAD review, with delivery coordinated once a build is complete.

Knapheide Equipment for Springfield, MO Fleets

Southwest Missouri’s mix of healthcare systems, retail and distribution operations, construction, and agriculture creates demand across most of Knapheide’s product line:

Knapheide service body

Service Bodies

Knapheide’s KSS and EC Series remain the standard choice for maintenance, utility, and general commercial fleets in this region. We spec each build to your chassis and payload before fabrication.

Knapheide dump body

Dump Bodies & Hoists

Common for the construction and agricultural operations across the Ozarks. We stock a full hoist lineup, including electric sub-frame units for chassis without a PTO, and handle hoist and pump repairs in-house.

Knapheide mechanic truck body

Mechanic Truck & Crane Packages

A good fit for field service and maintenance crews that need a lifting solution built into their work truck.

Knapheide gooseneck body

Platform, Gooseneck & Flatbed Bodies

Open-deck options for hauling materials or equipment, with Knapheide’s Roughneck toolboxes available for added storage.

Knapheide van storage

Van Storage Systems

Knapheide’s EXXPAND line brings modular shelving and bin storage to cargo vans for delivery and service fleets.

How Out-of-State Orders Work

Given the distance, we’ve built a process that works well for Missouri customers who aren’t local to our Springfield, IL shop:

  1. We discuss your application, chassis, and specs over the phone or by email
  2. We send a CAD design for your review before any fabrication begins
  3. We build and install the equipment at our Springfield, IL facility
  4. We coordinate delivery to southwest Missouri, or arrange pickup if you prefer
  5. We stay available for service questions after your equipment is in use

We’ve distributed Knapheide equipment since the 1950s and regularly work with customers across Missouri who don’t have a Knapheide dealer close to home.
