Took the the Dump and Sandloader trailer to play. I didn't think to get pretty posed pictures.

If you do something like mine, watch out for driveshaft bind on the front. It has a horrible angle, short shaft, and leaf springs are harder to fix yoke angles than linked axles.

Ah, hadn't thought about the steering geometry issues.

I would love to see some good pictures of your rig pulling the sand loader! Do you have the loader powered? I may have seen one of those, but it has been YEARS, probably played with one as a kid in the sand box!

Are there pictures of your dump solution? Did you use an actuator or what?
