converting an l200 to a tipper

[Peter]

Nice one Joe, good luck with it!

Here is my l200 tipper. this is the third l200 the tipper has been on. tipmaster did the initial conversion for me. its starting to get a bit tired now. could do with some serious tlc, but is a good ten years old. tips a ton easy any heavier and you can just give it a helping hand just to get it started. doors will fold down shut into a large lock up box or they will fold down flat against the side for easy side loading.

hi guys, ive converted my 99' L200 to a tipper too!

I found an ally bodied trailer that we cut down (had to narrow it by 1' and reduce its lenght by 2') its abit..erm..rugged! but really really handy all the same, and as the body is ally and we were very careful with steel work the truck still weighs the same so we can still put a ton in it. (just have to make sur ethe load is even as its a touch flexible) had it for 18months now and is still going strong.

Not sure if these photos will work (technophobe) but I did it! Bought a tipper body and made her fit, I'm pleased with results

Only one photo at a time for some reason

I like that. How much did it cost?

[outdoorjoe]

Chassis mated to truck chassis, fitted quite well it had to make a small bracket or two! I live the led lights look ace in the dark!

Cheers! I did it all myself,

 

body/chassis was £200

Light board £35

Lights £150

Arches £51

 

The rest was nuts and bolts, angle iron etc.

Tidy! What was the tipper off? Im still searching for a suitable sized buck for my 110.

It was of a 'dfsk' loadhopper, not the best quality but nowt a few hours on the mig welder can strengthen up.

 

My plan is to widen it by adding 3x2 box along the sides then make a new tailgate + add high sides,

 

Looks ok tho I think
