Move gravel without a dump truck, and without breaking your back

That worked when I delivered my friends fridge to his new house, let me just say we ain't friends anymore.....
1:50 i honestly was not ready for that...!this was a funny video
Great idea! Have you added any more height to the sides of the dump? My reason is that in my area they use a front-end loader to put gravel in the bed. Taller sides would allow the gravel and other things, to not get jammed between truck box sides and slider.
Great video. Keep on with the great suggestions and videos.
Best way l have ever seen to haul and dump a HALF Of a TON of gravel. Have a "new-improved" model built in 2002 that could haul THREE WHOLE TONS on a One-ton pickup truck & could keep a cap on the truck at the SAME TIME !
looks like a good way to break something. but affective. if you were to get any stone under it when loading you would probably be shoveling it out
The problem with his box is, where I live, the rock is loaded in my truck with a front end loader. The rocks would not all land in the wooden box. The rocks would go under the box, hinder the rollers and gouge the truck bed. I guess I could modify it to have ramped sides to cover more area.
harbor freight unloader $40. i make topsoil delivers with it, charge $50 ton. unload into a nice neat pile in 5 minutes..
I use mine for firewood
Maybe if it had an open bottom just the 4 studs and as u pull it back it start dropping gravel voila no getting dirty
What's with the feed being a waterfall?
New tail gate every 6 months?
Harbor freight Ben unloader $40
Some thing have to work great job
Great idea... Super dupper best idea
The fort Mcmurray fire began during Beltane in the beacon hill subdivision. Historically, Beltane has been a pagan festival time of burning the old to bring forth new life of spring. May 1 is the anniversary of the Illuminati founding 1776. This fire actually began in the early hours of May 1 and got out of control May 3.
Jasper fire began July 22 and bohemian grove cremation of care ceremony was the day prior. I see your video ends with a nod to this. Coincidences are all around us for those with the eyes to see.
Nice work Dan! You’ve come around. I pointed out the Beltane thing back then and you weren’t ready. Glad to see you’re aware now. Keep up the fight brother!
Couldn't you put higher sides and make it bigger!
One problem I see is that you get a trail of product instead of a pile. After you do the backup and dump, untie the restraint rope, and then pull forward just a little bit (don't let the sled fall off), then backup. This will start moving the sled towards vertical and thus making a pile instead of a trail.

But he wants it to trail
That MAY or MAY NOT be a problem! I can't think of any application where a PILE would be better.. usually gravel is SPREAD..
not great for piles but f your graveling a driveway perfect.
Pile =shoveling and then grading. Trail = grading only.
tell me my friend - small or average truck - how much mulch or dirt could I deliver and just dump for customer - keep it simple - - - -
Any upgrades to this?
Used only ones ;)
Forgot to open the wood tailgate first
You can back up about 6 feet or so to tip over.
big nope.
R u serious such a beefy Diesel n ur going to Mikey mouse the rest not to mention the low sides of the wood from gravel will surely fall out causing it to jam up nah u be can do better than that .even u Kno it doesn't go w ur trk

He just showed you that it works ya dumb son of a Bitch.
Some people has got the best ideas on how to do something right, it's the ones telling the that posted the video or the critic telling that it's not right. But what the heck they never make a video showing how their pro arse would do it
What in the jerry rig shit is this?
That was funny
rough!
Holy !!!!! I can think of a lot ways to,,, never mind.............
Genius
Its cute, its funky & it works. lol
That's cute lol
Daft as a brush, surely you can buy by the bag
You obviously don't buy much material.... by the bag is SO much more expensive! Buying in bulk is always the way to go IF you have a way of getting it to the place you wanna to use it. I laugh at some of my clients who buy bark or rock by the bag.... it is just so much more expensive than going down to the local bulk supplier.
this is just what I need!
Realy
Geez. The $100 it took to make and $1000 to fix the bumper probably more expensive than getting a load delivered...
Goodbye bedliner
Have never seen a truck loaded at a gravel pit that way. Most load with a bucket loader, making this useless...
How is it use less?... The gravel still goes in the back either way
@@jeremymarshall7034 Apparently you have never watched a truck being loaded by a tractor. The gravel doesn't just go where you want it to, it spills everywhere, and would jamb up any "sled" you would try to pull out.
I'm watching it happen now. A simple funnel box on top would keep that from happening.
It's all about stopping his expensive manly truck from getting a scratch. He should have just had someone to dump it and keep using his truck for groceries.
Darn , I still need a shovel, uuuugh !!
Sliding dump bed makes ripping your tailgate off and FUCKING your $60000 truck up easy and fast. Old truck? Probably works great
horrible idea. What a pain to take the tail gate off.
That is the worst thing I have ever seen. Remove tailgate? What happens when a pebble gets underneath the box and jams the roller(s). About one of the worst ideas I have ever seen.
I can't tell if this is real or satire.
Hahaha!!!
Nice..but not original. This project was featured in Mother Earth News back in the late 70's. Good application for a beater pick-up, but not one as featured in the video.
So one would have to wonder why is it impossible to realize the removal of the tailgate and the addition of flashing to assist the superficial appearance of the truck. While completely negating the safety hazard and damage you're doing your suspension et al.
It's no wonder no one
considered driving a dig bar or several concrete stakes attaching a chain and driving away slowly until the bed has been pulled clear and dumped?
Moreover I am curious why you would not remove the tailgate of the dump box before you back up like that truck didn't cost nearly $100,000?
Bro you need to buy yourself punctuation. Authority can suck it with safety. Oh just like your comment on this video. Mine is also a little late, but no he didn't spend 100k in 2009 on that truck. All that being said he is your dad
10,000 more loads, then driveway is done!
And it only took 10 hours to build and set up, as opposed to 20 minutes of shoveling!
Yeah that'll last! Lol
ha, ha, ha, ha, ha....... do it right.
WHAHAHAHAT?!
omg that is horrible
Ur right I agree with u
Removing the tail gate....are you kidding me. Thats like 2 hours work. I rather 25 minutes with a shovel....
On a Ford you just take the cables off and it slides out, 4 seconds
Wow that is the cheapest, easiest way I have seen yet. Oh, the dump truck was invented for rich people who can't operate a screwdriver to save their life. That is why they usually hire others to operate it.
lol! very true
Not impressed !!
