Steel frameless end dump
http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a2...psjw5gttlz.jpg http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a2...psusdzvk7u.jpg Decided it was time to put something behind my truck and always thought these frameless end dumps were neat. Box is 31 inches long and built with 1/8 x 1/2 steel flat bar. need to grind my welds flat and bend up a tub. Long way to go yet. I sure hope it will be heavy enough :rolleyes:

Re: Steel frameless end dump
I use a cheapo flux core wire welder I got at harbor freight. It spatters quite a bit but it gets the job done. I am no expert welder but I'm learning.
More pics to come. |
Re: Steel frameless end dump
Great start! I'm happy to see some more metal parts.

Re: Steel frameless end dump
what are you going to use to lift that heavy load??

Re: Steel frameless end dump
Im going to try a couple firgellis mounted between the draft arms. Im impressed with the power they have and I'm thinking they will get the job done.
Lots more metal to add reg! |

Re: Steel frameless end dump
your mig will do fine and probably give you a much cleaner weld than what I get. I say give it a shot
