I am going to convert my 1 ton flat bed to a dump using a telescopic cylinder. If anyone knows of plans or a website that may assist with the design let me know

    Here is an interesting artical from Mother Earth News magazine in 1985 on a dump bed fabrication using the power steering pump on the truck for the "wet kit".Our one ton wrecker uses this same system on the boom lift cylinders.
