How to Build a Dump Trailer Without Hydraulics 

I built a dump trailer a few years ago. My base trailer had coil springs and I cut the truck bed frame right behind them. This allowed me to tilt the trailer bed about 30% closer to the front. It turned it into more of a teeter totter effect. I then built a sub frame for the trailer bed. This required much less mechanical force to lift it, as the weight in the back helped lift the front. This also put the bed right on the ground allowing me to drive my ATV right in without the use of ramps. I loved your idea of lifting it, mine was not as ingenious. The two ideas combined would have been just the ticket. Thank you, I really enjoyed the video.

Hola Pechoo, buenas tardes. Que ingenioso. Me gusto mucho tu video mostrándonos el paso a paso en la construcción de este remolque volcados. Muchas gracias por registrarlo todo y compartirlo con todos nosotros. Muy buen trabajo. Segui adelante. Gracias.

Cant wait to try this set up on my trailer. This video is exactly what I have been searching for.

Top job Mate 👍. You may consider a 2:1 snatch block to reduce winch loading up. Downside would be twice as long to move through full range of motion.

It's so cool to see you use the tools you build over the last few years! You're a legend!

Excellent craftsmanship and engineering, definitely THE Master Craftsman at work here, Uber talented.👍💯

Excellent build. I love designing and building things and I’ve got to say this was a great build not a lot of people have the ability to design and build on the move.

Muito bom! Gostei demais! Irei seguir esse mesmo modelo para a minha! Achei a sua muito mais leve!

Ficou top demais a sua invenção parabéns 👍👍

Muito bom mesmo gostei parabéns boa ideia primeira vez eu vejo isso impressionante parabéns pelo trabalho

It crazy that you did all this without listening to music, and it's even more crazy that I watched this without thinking to put music in the background for it 🤘 inspirational build man!

All you need to do to double the lifting power of the winch, would be to double the length of cable, add a pulley to where the cable is anchored on the hinge, and the cable would be strung through the pulley and anchored on the post that mounts the winch. Excellent video.

Svaka cast momce. Ovaj patent vredi svaku paru! Odusevljavas me sa saki novi projekat.🦾

Very nice. I especially liked the way you mounted the winch so that it first pulls the edge of the bed up until it passes a certain point, (where pulling the arm becomes effective).

Ele ainda fez de uma forma que possa ser reversível, simplesmente genial!

I like the way you reinforced the concept in my head of tack welding. I am a novice & my work shows it when I rush ahead without doing the tacks.

Łapka za pomysłowość i nakład pracy... Do lekkich towarów ok

It's one thing to be a skilled welder, but this level of ingenuity is impressive! Great job!

Top class welding, lovely job.

Excelente todos s los trabajos y los tipos de video! Lo haves ver tan fácil jeje. Es un placer verte diseñar y soldar. Saludos desde argentina

For $20 you can add a snatch block then that winch will be plenty strong. The dump time will take twice as long, but the winch pull will be twice as strong. Great idea, good craftsmanship, and nice video. Thanks for sharing.

Congratulations on your project. Having done so much I suggest you can add two limit switches and a remote switch with a relay so you can safely operate the tipper remotely and safely. Looking forward to more such projects. Suggestion try making the tipper to dump from three sides. ; - )...

nice build, not something I would do to a light weight trailer like this one. Great idea all the same :)

Bon travail ! Merci pour le partage de l'idée. Vraiment bravo. 👏

Muy buen y excelente diseño

The bed is connected only to the hinge on the frame. The airstream could cause the bed to raise up. Especially if you want to transport something light with great wind resistance. Therefore, I would recommend an additional lock that fixes the bed to the frame, so that this can be ruled out while riding.

Wooow! That’s the best trailer improvement I have seen!

Very cool design and creativity. Cutting the cable on the winch shorter was a bold choice.

You could double the pull by adding more pulleys. 950kg x 2 or 3 or 4 even. Just depends on how many times you loop the cable to add multipliers. Like a Block and Tackle set up. Instead of a straight pull.

Brilliant idea you came up with. Awesome plan. If i may suggest to add supports on either side of the bucket because it is only supported in the middle and it seems to sway a little from left to right....that will come in handy when you propbably at an anlge trying to off load something

Excelente trabalho muito Bom...

Mistrzostwo👍.

Odlično, svaka čast. Samo tako nastavi.

Excelente maravilloso trabajo amigo felicitaciones .

A lot of work, but the end result was well worth it, well done, and a good idea.

Congratulations on the project. It turned out very good. Allow me a suggestion: to provide more stability when lifting, it would be interesting to install two more pantographic structures parallel to the central structure. In this case, closer to the side bars of the frame/chassis. This way, when lifting, it won't wobble as much, even reducing the risk of breakage due to overweight.

Great video! Thank you for sharing. Just a suggestion, might add a couple of front left & right corner drop in bolts or spring-loaded pins to prevent heavy loads...rock & sand, etcetera, from stressing/shifting frame laterally in the front two corners tying upper & lower sections together during travel. From your video, it appears all front lateral force is dependent upon the three rectangular tubes at the lift/pivot point. Thanks again for a very good build!

Now that’s workmanship!

Ingenious ! ! ! If you get a longer cable you can loop it back and forth onece (or twice) more underneath to gain mechanical advantage and it will lift much stronger.

очень уважаю таких самоделкиных! Браво!

Super, svaka cast na ideji.. samo bih dodao na tvom mestu osigurace napred da ne bi tovarni prostor skakao u voznji ili se podigao pri vecim brzinama...

A simplicidade da sua engenharia até me assusta!! Mas a construção esta PERFEITA!! Parabéns......The simplicity of its engineering even scares me!! But the construction is PERFECT!! Congratulations......

Excelente trabajo. Excelente descripción.👍👌👏

You could always add a couple of pulleys to increase the mechanical advantage to the lift even if its slower its ok it will be very strong

Молодец ,талантливо 👍Очень уважаю творческих людей.На глаз ,без чертежей.Придумал и иполнил.Сам так делаю.Классный прицеп ,красавчик 👍👏🔥✊

Excelente vídeo. Que máquina de solda é essa? Ela parece soldar muito bem.

Well done! I confess that I didn't know how you were going to power the lift until the end. Nice!

Great job. Thank you for your time and effort to make this video and share it with us. Greetings from Croatia.

Non c'è nulla da fare, Sei un Maestro dell'inventiva. Mi hai dato un Ottima Idea su come modificare il mio rimorchio, grazie.

Well done. Could you tell the brand/ make of the drill-tool for the - I guess about 20 to 25mm in diameter - bigger bores in your construction, please. Did you paint or zinc-coate the steel-profiles for protection from rust? Regards

Nice build and trailer modifications. The video was very nicely done with perfect pacing and just the right amount of voiceover/narration :)

in order to increase the power of the winch you would have had to lead the hook back to the winch because then you have a pulley system where you only have to apply half the force the way you have guided the rope now the winch has to when it pulls the lever carry full load but your work is otherwise clean and tidy👍👍👍

Just to point out a small flaw in a otherwise great video; That trailer is without brakes, so I guess it has a max. load of 750 kg. By the looks of it it was added quite a lot of weight in material to build this, which would reduce the trailers carrying capacity by the same amount. It would have been interesting to see by how much. Make the same design on a trailer with a maximum capacity of 3 tons or so would be interesting.

watched this last year still good stuff god bless

Man you are a genius!!!! thanks for sharing you re ideas with us!

Классное решение!) Молодец👍👍👍

Jak już miałeś odniesioną przyczepkę mogłeś wzmocnić ceownik przy mocowaniu do ośki kół. Tam są 2 śruby w odległości 25cm, ja dokładałem grubości 5mm kątownik na 80cm długości.

Η κατασκευή είναι τέλεια .Παρατήρησα οτι το κουτί με το σασί (κάτω μέρος) δεν είναι δεμένα κατά την πορεία με κίνδυνο να ανεβαίνει πάνω κάτω . Βάζοντας 2 κλιπ ένα αριστερά και ένα δεξιά θα λύσουν το πρόβλημα .Πολύ καλή δουλειά Απο HELLAS

Excelente trabajo con mucha capacidad mental

Super pomysł, ulatwia pracę. Pozdrawiam

Хорошая задумка, на лебедке надо было больше оставить троса для безопасности. Да и теперь придётся с собой возить аккумулятор, или тянуть от штатного большого сечения провода.👍

Now that`s TALENT!!!

Sos un crack amigo saludos cordiales desde Guatemala.

Молодец! Действительно умелец! Мастер на все руки! Удачи во всем.

Hej. Fajny pomysł. Super wykonie Żeby zwiększyć moc wyciągarki możesz dołożyć zblocze..... Będzie wolna ale mocniejsza. Druga sprawa im masz więcej liny rozwiniesz tym jest mocniejsza wyciągarka. Spr jeszcze napięcie jakie masz przy używaniu wyciągarki jeśli Ci spadnie do 10.5 v będzie.

Genial trabajo 👏 me gustaría poder hacerlo saludos

Que show de projeto, curti e vou fazer uma para minha oficina, parabéns e obrigado por compartilhar o projeto.

WOW YOUR WORK IS AMAZING!!!!❤❤❤

After reviewing your design more closely, it appears that the raising mechanism is not quite horizontal when the bed is in the lowered position, so the mechanism would have better mechanical advantage (when the bed begins to raise) than I thought, at first. Handy dump bed trailer!

Думаю Гаишники, оценят по достоинству, 😂 за труды лайк👍👍👍

Süper fikrin için çok teşekkürler 👏👏👏

Thanks for that great video appreciations, clean and beautiful 🇩🇰🙏👍

Не хватает блочной тяги, а не прямой! Хотя бы пару петель- нагрузка на э.двигатель бы уменьшилась в 4 раза.

Молодец! Очень интересно сделал!

A carteirinha eu tenho, o problema seria achar um profissional que faça isso...🤣🤣👏👏👏👏👏 ficou muito bom...

Muchas gracias por el video.👍

Бесконечно можно смотреть как горит огонь, как льётся вода, ну как работает человек.. РЕСПЕКТ автору, просто МОЛОДЕЦ, руки - из правильного места растут...👍👍👍👍👍

Крутая работа 👍👍👍

Great diy useful project. Nice welds.

How do you prevent the loader to fly up in the air when driving empty?

Nice! Is the second pulley doing anything? It seems like it has no effect since the hook is attached near bottom hinge. To increase lifting force, the hook should be attached near the winch instead.

Pomysł fajny, wykonanie super, ale myślę że hydraulika jest tańsza i nie tak skomplikowana. A jeszcze jedna ważna rzecz, jak bardzo wzrosła masa własna przyczepki? Z tego co widzę to DMC Max 750kg, masa własna oryginalna to około 120kg + kiper wraz z wyciągarką około kolejne 100kg (strzelam na oko) to oficjalnie nie wiele zostaje ładowności. Ale pomysł fajny i wykonanie też bardzo fajne i estetyczne.

Nicely done sir

You did an excellent job!

Creative design! However, as the bed begins to raise, the raising mechanism has nearly "zero" mechanical advantage (because the mechanism is acting nearly in a horizontal direction, & only a small force component is acting in the vertical direction, to raise the bed), but as the bed raises higher, the mechanism has a greater component of force in the vertical direction, which would allow for less total force required (from the winch) to raise the bed. A moment arm with right angle to the bed lift arm, & located at the pivot point of where the winch cable attaches should provide better mechanical advantage. The winch cable would attach to the end of the moment arm, rather than the raising mechanism's pivot.

Идея вроде не плохая, но: можно было постараться под 45° резать! Болтами профиль сжимается, со временем ослабнет и будет ходуном все ходить, нужно вставки в профиль в варивать! Платформа ложиться на метал, нужны подушки, нужны направляющие, чтоб туда сюда не ходила платформа в сложенном виде при езде! Можете называть меня диванным инженером, я не против!

Excelente muy buena idea

You can Double the Power of your Winch by Installing a EYE at the middle Roller cable, Then Add a Pulley Block with a Eye on it to the cable under the Trailer and Attach the Winch cable around the pully block and to the Winch Frame, you have Now Compounded the pull by 2 with the pulley block, no need to buy a larger Winch 😊 Nice Job.

You might want to use nylock nuts so that they can't back out and cause you damage.

Тестувати треба піском! Накидав повен--якщо підняв то супер! За працю LAYK!

Emeğine yüreğine sağlık Antalya’dan selamlar

Bela construção. Gostaria de saber que motor potente é esse capaz de levanta a caçamba.

респект, телегу с нуля сделать надо было, а то борта ходят туда сюда, свое что сделал на много надежней.

1) The winch has more strength if there is a full wrap of wire rope ( cable ) on the drum when you have it fully deployed ( bed down in this case ) so the cutting it shorter is a big cause in the lack of strength you noticed. 2) if the pulley was instead a snatch block you could remove the cable from, you would be able to easily switch from dumping to pulling a larger item onto the trailer. 3) chains from the side of the trailer to the top of the tailgate would let it be a slight extension to the length of the bed for both hauling and dumping.

how much load are you allowed to carry now? no brakes ? in germany max load 750kg...

انت مبدع👏🏻👏🏻

Идея хорошая! Сколько килограмм может поднять данный прицеп с помощью лебедки?

Все красиво, но массу сильно увеличил и я не увидел фиксации платформы в опущенном состоянии, без фиксации эксплуатация не безопасна.

grand bravo super réalisation et très bien fait continu comme ca super super

Excellent idea and your fabrication skills are amazing. You would achieve more lift if the deadline anchor was attached to the post just under the winch. In this way the deadline would also be pulling the hinge point, rather than just trying to collapse the lower angle brace.
