Just done pretty much the same to mine. One thing I was keen to avoid was material getting caught during tipping operation so I've put inner and outer ali skin on tipping body, works fine.

Nice job, are you going to put a part lid On the front to keep chip off the windscreen?

Very smart mate will look good when finished

personally i would have cut the bed down so only the chip box tips, then build your tool box on the truck chassis, means you dont have all your kit going up with the tipper.

Also can be a pain if you tip the box to chip into then you need something from your tool box, you have to drop the tipper again.

 

good job though mate

We found tools dont tend to move much as most arbs stuff as much gear in their toolboxes as possible and pack em accordingly. 2 of our boxes are set in the tipper with another set on the chassis.

 

Doing it this way saves weight, materials, cost and space.
