Pics of a 110/130 tipper subframe

[Wex]

If anyone has any pics of the above to post I'd appreciate it.I'm in the middle of mounting a toolbox ( front end of a quadtech body) behind the cab and am looking for inspiration on the makeup of the tipper subframe.Looks like Im going to end up with a 6 1/2 foot X 6 foot chip box.Pump will be mounted the floor of the toolbox

 

Thanks !

theres a few pic on this old thread i adjusted a transit tipping frame to fit a 130

we fitted the power pack just behind the cab across the chassis

Nice one fellas

 

Armchairarborist , I'd be interested to see what way you tackled the mounting of the ram.Because I have the toolbox pushing everything back it looks like the best place to position the ram ( 4 stage on pivot lugs) is more or less over the A-frame balljoint.I'm looking to keep the chip box as low as possible over the vehicle chassis to maximise volume without having a big profile over the toolbox cab and toolbox roof which are more or less level with each other.I'm looking at copying the chassis of an 8x5 indespension tipper I have.What size box did you use on yours ?

I was thinking of bolting two channel irons to the vehicle chassis rails , then ladders between each to stiffen it up .The bed frame then made up in a higher profile box ( rectangular) that would sit into the channel but with enough box sitting above the channel rails to form the outriggers for the bed frame.Does that make sense ?

 

NiftySteve , thats a nice bit of work and the thread makes good reading.I'm going to have to mount the pump in the toolbox for the reasons above.I toyed with using a scrapped tipper bed but anyone who has one is asking silly money.

we only used the tipping frame then narrowed it to fit the original landy truck body

I made that tipper for Ed. The ram is positioned inside the wishbone of the self levelling unit. It’s a snug fit.

 

The rams support lugs sit inside two box section supports running front to back and sit in “U” shaped brackets with a bolt through to stop the ram jumping out.

Thanks for that.

 

What size box did you use ? I just remembered that I should pay heed to the clearance needed for axle articulation

[armchairarborist]

two inch box i think mate

Thanks fella

 

 

Finally , what sort of clearance should I leave over the rear wheels ?.Sorry for all the questions but there's nothing local I can measure off.
