Default Re: 1930s dumptruck - Nylint

Moving high volume payload isn't exactly the priority with this truck.



It takes a little more Accuracy hitting the bed with a load. Plus no cab-protector at all.



Chrome will Always get ya home, and i ain't kidding!

I'm kinda going for a Truck that started the business when new, they moved on, it came out of storage for a restoration, and sometimes gets lightly used more as a retired toy than a working truck

Due to the small bed and soft springs, it won't really 'Ride like a Dumptruck' and the little Figrelli / Actuonix bed actuator i got that didn't work for the bigger truck seems like it can pretty easily handle things on here.

Figreli L12-30-100-12S


Its able to dump a 12 oz beverage can. I think that should be about right for a load of dirt or crumb rubber. It doesn't have a tailgate so it's not like it'll get filled to Struck or Heaped.

I'll probably still add to the suspension limit. A little over a 12oz can in the bed is about where its either still up, or squats the shackles to the stop. If i upgrade, i'll probably just try to break some toy spring-motors to make some extra leafs.



Full up dump.
