Quick question, I have an end dump aluminum trailer. My piston is the other way around, upside down. Skinny side at the bottom. Do you know if I have to tighten the same way as yours? Thank you. Great video.

[@dariojr69]

Did it work?

What do you do if a dump bed is leaning when dumping even though the load is even?

[@knoxvillepredatorcatcher3459]

Burn it and get a Mack.

Could be multiple things. If it's just the bed leaning then start with the hinge pins. You got 2 on the actual cylinder, top and bottom. And you have the ones in the rear where the bed attaches to the frame. Also worn torque rods will show up as a lean too

My truck was the same way. It would lean towards the passenger side even when the load was even. But I started with the bed pins, it helped a bit but it was still happening. Until recently I changed the leaf spring set on the passenger side. It dumps even now
