Maxi-Dump

The Maxi-Dump is a steel box that slides into the pickup bed. A 12-volt DC hydraulic pump, powered by the truck’s electrical system, operates a single-acting hydraulic cylinder, which extends to raise the bed and dump its contents (up to 10,000 pounds). Also available from the manufacturer is a special tailgate that evenly spreads materials, such as sand or salt, as the bed dumps.
