Although most ambulance manufacturers build their vehicles with the KKK specs in mind it is not required unless federal funds are being used to purchase the ambulance.

I think the box is made by Braun Northwest or Northstar Ambulamce

Bruan Northwest did the box for the new RA's.



The new Dodge RA's have been assigned to Stations

Type I RA's ?!! I think I'm gonna keel over!



Last Type 1's I remember were the old Central Receiving Hospital "Brown Bombers" LAFD inherited in 1970, after CRH was closed.



I'll bet the lightbar will certainly make up for front box lights lol!
