Default Screw Drive?

Hey everyone! I'm not sure I'm posting this question in the right area. I looking in the near future to start building a dump trailer. I see that the screw drive is a popular way to go. Does anyone sell screw drive setups or are they all custom built?

They are all custom built other than the Carson which requires modification to get it between the frame rails on a Tamiya truck.

Here are some examples (unfotunately in German... , but maybe the pics can halp you):

...or a telescope spindele...

...also available here:

The bottom of the spindle is fixed to the chassis, the top end has a joint shaft connection to a geared motor, that is mouted under the dumper.

Hope I could help you with this...
