Re: Izzy's Dump truck
A nifty little tandem axle pup with a low pro stiff pole (like my pup) & a box about the same length as your trk would be the ultimate duet for this build Izzy.
Lower your pintle about 10mm. |

Re: Izzy's Dump truck
Yup - a pup......was thinking the pintle was too hig - bummer since I have strut bars in the bottom - what apain to assemble........but then again - that's what we like......

Re: Izzy's Dump truck
Hay Chris most pintle hitches are made adjustable on both the truck and the trailer but almost always adjustable on the trailer so it can be set for a fixed pintle on a truck. In the 1:1 world you don't always have a good mounting option on the truck. So I would suggest making the pup fit what you have. Just an idea.

Re: Izzy's Dump truck
You've got quite a bit of box overhang there Izzy.
How far below is the tailgate covering the pintle with the box raised high enough for clean out? |
