Dump bed?
I want to convert my 69 f250 camper special to a dump bed. Anyone ever done it?

Yeah, it's pretty simple. You just need to find one that will mount to your frame rail's width. I used a generic lift and made my own pivots at the back of the frame.

Re: Dump bed?
You can put a dump kit on a factory box too. This is my old truck that already had it on. Extremely useful, I wish I had the kit on my truck now. I moved a lot of dirt and gravel with it.

Thanks guys!.Lone Ranger, That's a nice truck and exactly what I have in mind. I know that, once I pull the bed, it'll turn in to a full cab back rebuild LOL.

Re: Dump bed?
Thanks sadly I sold it. I did see it recently on craigslist here in southern Michigan. If I had the money I'd buy it back. I hope whoever buys it comes on this site.Mollytheunstoppable wrote:Thanks guys!.Lone Ranger, That's a nice truck and exactly what I have in mind.
