    Do you think you could use a winch in place of the cylinder?

      You could with some springs to help flip the spikes down when it is empty.

      What did you do to keep the hinge pin in place from coming out? @Joe Preston

      I tacked them to the end of the pipe, you could put an angle iron tab in as well.

      38" or however wide fits between the frame rails, come in 2" or 3" to the center of your spike holes.
