i'm making a new truck . and its a side tipper knothing crazy just tipps one way.
i was thinking of using a servo to tip the bed. using the servo arm to move the bed something with a bearing on it, as the arm move up it slide along the bottom of bed simple and esy way to tip the bed. but im planing on putting dirt in the bed and use the truck. so i need a servo that pretty strong.

im asking what id a good torque to move about three to four pounds of dirt. and that may be a low estimate of weight. theres not alot of room so i can't use something big
