What's the tipping angle mate? Are all the rams extending fully?

 

The Trannys only really start spilling the chip out when the top (thinnest) ram extends.

 

Worse with wet chip.

hi mark, yep all 3 rams fully out, dont know the angle but much the same as our old truck could it be the new ally floor and sides do you think??

[Mark Bolam]

Mines steel bed with ally sides and usually tips pretty clean.

 

Have had some issues when we have been chipping pure leafy crap in the wet, no bother with more woody chips.

 

Weird!

You might need to drop the tail gate i find that always works for me.

is the tipping body factory fitted of is it an aftermarket tipper ? , i know one guy with an isuzu who had a factory fitted tipper and it does no tip high enough but thats because its a scissor tipping system . can you post some pics of the rams and tipper when fully tipped ?

[dangerous brian]

My tippers broke.

hi combined tree services,

it was not fitted by isuzu , single three part ram, i have now checked the angle and find its about 36 degree where other tippers are about 45 to 50 max, i think this could be the problem, so looks like i could be in for an argument!!!

so looks like i could be in for an argument!!!

 

cant see it will be much of an arguement when you turn up in the drive which a truck full and tip it up to show them nothing happens!!
