    vintage 1983 article : TURN YOUR PICKUP TRUCK INTO A DUMP TRUCK

    otp57, the system in this article uses the "back em up and slam on the brakes" method.....kinda scary but he gives some insight on his design with rails and casters

    the system i think you want to design involves using your electric hoist to lift & tilt the bed insert up.....lots of engineering for the sky crane



    why not rig up a way to use your hoist to back out the insert slowly to the tipping point in a more controlled manor ?
