Thanks for watching and your comment Levi! Having the ability to dump from your tractor seat is a definitely advantages. Hopefully this year you will get it done!
Thanks for watching. My custom hydraulic dump trailer doesn't have a latch to lock. There is too much weight behind the pivot point of the walking beam axles and not enough on the tongue. Moving the pivot point back will solve the problem that I have.
Thanks for watching. GREAT idea! I will definitely rig up something like you suggested in the short term but in the long term I'll probably move the pivot point of the walking beam axles back to give me more tongue weight.
I’m still a little envious that you 1) don’t have to get off the machine to dump the cart, and 2) you don’t have to remove the remaining material by hand. I like the 17P, but the design of the standard cart is a little annoying at times. I don’t remember seeing the grapple before....... did you make that too?
Thanks for watching. I didn't like the way the 17P dumped in the first place so that was the start of the modifications to the cart. Hated having to shovel material back out of it so that is why I made it a hydraulic dump when I got my X748. Yes I did make the grapple too.
