Default Re: Live Floor

Ralph did a live bottom, but it was the walking floor type, which is equally cool, and not the conveyer type, if memory serves me correct. I've looked at those live bottom trailers with the conveyers. I thought the same thing. A small electric motor could run the conveyer, and you wouldn't need hydraulics, even though the real 1:1 trailers use a hydraulic motor. It would be a really cool build. The only thing is I've never seen live bottom trailers hauling dirt. Bulk feeds and maybe wood chips, but never dirt. I think they stick to the lighter, bulk loads.
