r686st Posted February 21, 2016 Share Posted February 21, 2016 What kind of dump trailer is that? It seems to have really short sides... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j hancock Posted February 21, 2016 Author Share Posted February 21, 2016 Not sure what all they use this trailer for with the low sides. It is like a mason dump body in trailer form. Quote JimIt doesn't cost anything to pay attention. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Horse Posted February 21, 2016 Share Posted February 21, 2016 First thought-surplus trailer from a steel mill-haulijng ingots whatever. Then thinking- New England? Maybe hauling big stone for waterfront projects. Case in point, I'm involved in a beach restoration project now and spec calls for 5-6 ton "toe stone" as first course. that would be a hunk of granite about 4 x 4 x 4. How do you move that stuff? Chain it on a flat or lowboy? or maybe some heavy low sideboard dump- loaded by grapple or chain-off loaded same way???In any case beauty of an R model!

66dc75 Posted February 21, 2016 Share Posted February 21, 2016 I think they said it was cut down to haul big boulders. It was parked near my Autocar at a show last November Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Bullheaded Posted February 22, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted February 22, 2016 Hope you don't mind me adding a pic. This was new at my local dealer back in the day. I think this is one of the ones that ended up in our local steel mill pulling a big 100 ton float.If not, they did have two just like it. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maddog13407 Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 must be some big springs or spacers in that red one. looks like it sits about 6'' higher than the standard R model next to it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
