Re: End Dump Trailer and Dolly
I was out of the shop for a couple of weeks but have been back working away on this since Monday. Two long work days have this almost ready to go. Just a few small details this morning and then it will be torn down to receive it's velvet black powder coat.
I was asked to fit a stock King rear bumper to the trailer so I modified a stamped steel trailer bumper mount to except the KH bumper. It had to be lowered as well to clear the overhang when the box is up. The owner has a nice new bumper to put on. This old beater was just installed for testing...
Up front the "quad wagon" needed some shorty fenders so I made those up. I also made a plate to cover over the open frame. I gave a final "trim" to the ladder as well and mounted it up.
Next up was the dolly. I was provided a perfect set of KH rails with the axles but rather than waste them I decided to make a new set and only drill the necessary holes for a cleaner look.
Once the rails were ready and installed I got started on the drawbar and mount.
And finally, after making a couple of pintle hooks, a few pictures outside!
