- In this video we will take you along through the build process of this ATV Dump Trailer. This trailer allowed us to fill a need for light duty work around the ranch and allow us to tread lightly and have greater access through out the property. We built this specifically to be cost effective and still complete the tasks without the need for a truck and our larger trailers.
Welcome to Tick Creek Ranch. This channel was created to show the daily ins and outs of life on a small ranch. We are a family of eight, our lifestyle has taken us from the deserts of Idaho to the wilds of Alaska and back to the lower 48. We followed our dreams and finally settled in the Ozark’s of Missouri. We have owned and operated our own businesses over the years, ranging from carpentry and excavation to commercial and residential landscape. The children and ourselves have developed a passion for learning new skills which include leather work, welding and fabricating, carpentry, plumbing, electrical, roofing, painting, equipment operation, timber sawing, blacksmithing, horseshoeing, flatwork and concrete, timber framing, cattle ranching, horse training, and many more. Please follow along on this journey as we build our new home and delve into the ways of regenerative ranching. So stick around and watch us create our dream using old world construction techniques and style reminiscent of an era gone by. Thank you and enjoy the journey. - แนวปฏิบัติและการใช้ชีวิต
That is an absolutely amazing build. Thanks for sharing this experience.
Loved the term “blushed with rust” 😂😂 some call that “patina blush”
Im not easily impressed but iv got a ton of uses for this highly versitle trailer on my farm well done thanks for the video !
I built a very similar trailer with the same style for lifting. Branches and fire wood it dumps fine on a single pull. But i tend to overload it when hauling dirt or rocks, so i added a snatchblock on the front of the box. Then run the cable through it and hook to the top of the mast (just below the V pulley). It does take longer but will lift a lot more weight (double the strength/ half the speed).
Nice clean build 👌
That is one nicely built trailer!! My only suggestion is that you drill drain holes in any square tubing that is welded solid. Water Will get in, you need to let it get out before it frezzes... it will balloon the tubing.
You are correct, been there 👍
I’m liking this video I don’t even know why it showed up in my feed but I’m glad it did. We got us a little trailer that we use at our place up in the mountains in Zions. but when you don’t have an axle like that the tires we have problems, I’m stealing this idea, I like it.
You should make like an instruction book on how to make it. Because if you did I would probably buy it.
Now that's a trailer 🤯 giving me build ideas 👍
Enjoyed the shorts and glad to see the full video. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
that an awesome piece of equipment. thanks for sharing
Nice build
Make the tailgate like a dump truck where you can use a chain to adjust the open gap at the bottom and spread dirt and gravel.
Great video
We appreciate it.
That Trailer is AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Way to go Brother!!!!!!!!
I like it! well done!
This dude is brilliant
My wife would disagree lol
Great job
Thank you.
Nice concept. Love the build!
Great job! 👍👍👍
interesting design. nice little trailer.
I really liked this little trailer and it would work great for us down here in Chile. We will try and build one up down here in the deep SOUTH of Chile.
Thanks for the design ideas. Jim
Hope it works well for you 👍
Super clean.
Good video!
Sweet build watched all the shorts on it and adapted the winch set up for my lil wood trailer 😊😊
Thanks for the feedback. All I can say is never trust cable. I’m very aware of the possibility of a mishap with a cable hoist. Be careful and thanks for watching Doug👍
@@tickcreekranch oh yes I agree I also incorporated a safety pin when it’s up I can install in the upright post
I’ve been waiting for this video to come out! Nice job. I need to build one now. It’s the perfect between size 👍🏽
I’d love to see how it turns out 👍
Thanks for watching
Will do my friend!
Impressive. Now I need one.
Thats nice, I am going to have to build something similar for our lil farm. Awesome job, keep up the good work.
If you build one I’d love to see the final product! Thank you
@@tickcreekranch no way it would ever be as nice as yours, I tend to use whatever scrap I have laying around to build most my stuff. I will make a video if and when I build one. Thanks for the inspiration.
Impressive work with a flux core welder
wow ! awsome build !
Thanks Willie
good job fantastic job
Clicked and subscribed 👍🏼👍🏼
Very cool! I want one
Nice job man, definitely better than over priced, made in Chyna junk they sell at big box stores.
Nice build, i am building something similar, with dump capacity, winch and snatch blocks incorporated in the frame , and an elevated three leg hoop for pulling logs on, and designed for hilly terrain. It might be time for a bigger atv
I discovered your videos on insta through reels. This is awesome. - John
Thank you John!
Really liked your walking beam design. I have a need to move cuttings and my Kenworth dump truck is way too big to fit where the cuttings are and this would be ideal. Penetrating oil is the best to keep the cable living.
Nice looking trailer. great video. The steel used in shipping containers is designed to rust.
Thanks Jerry
Couldn't hurt to add some brackets to the bottom front to center the bed while lowering and hold the bed from lateral movement while driving. It will save the hinges.
There are a couple of small pieces of angle iron that guide the bed onto the frame.👍
nice trailer, nice video.
Q: why not more overhang at the rear? _ as much as possible close to the spring mount shackle. means all that weight would actually help unloading.
I made a trailer that has the hinge basically on the axle, so if loaded properly/equally front/back ... I can dump ~300kg dirt/rocks/wood just by hand, i just need to help it off a bit (it does have a latch i need to unlock for it to dump)
Well looks like I got me another project
I need that trailer.
Never thought of doing a walking beam axle like that but it's simple and effective! Also, if you wanted to travel over the road with the trailer, would be an easy swap back to trailer tires. What do you estimate you have into the build?
About 1700 👍
@@tickcreekranch honestly I thought you would be more into it. steel isn't bad if you are buying it here and there but I just bought a 20' section of 1x1 square tube 1/8" wall and it was 35 bucks. That can add up really quick if you aren't watching it. I have a old trailer someone left on the property years ago that they stuck a solid front axle from some sort of car(at least thats what it looks like) and built a trailer on it and you have given me some ideas.
Hey, that was really well thought out. Did you find the need to put bump stops on your walking beam to prevent tires rubbing on the trailer?
No, so far it’s worked great. It has a surprisingly large area of travel. Not sure Its rubbed yet and if it has, it’s brief and has caused no wear. Thanks Scott
кросавчег • beauty-boy!
Awesome job, definitely going to make one like it! What size is the bed itself? I'm sure you said in the video and I missed it!
4x8👍 thanks
Great build, going to tackle a similar build as a project with my old man. Gonna pick through the video more thoroughly again but just wondering if you might have a materials list for all the steel used.
Thanks Chance! Sorry I don’t have a material list. I just build from my head. I can tell you the bed is 4x8 so it utilized a full sheet. You might consider having the steel yard break some sheets to make a monocoque type bed considering this ended up being pretty heavy. If I were to build another I’d upgrade to a 3500# winch. Other than that I’ve been pretty happy with it.
@@tickcreekranchawesome thanks for the quick reply and insight! Definitely have a few ideas to make the bed a bit lighter myself. Materials are easy enough to figure out once a guy gets scribbling out his own plans. What size/wall thickness of tubing did you use for the chassis and bed frame?
@@SchulerAg89 1/8 x1.5x1.5 for the bed and 3/16x2x3 for the chassis.
@@tickcreekranch you're the man, thanks!
Looks like the dump bed may twist if the load is uneven side to side. Could you build hinged supports on either side of the frame to help with that? I hope I explain this right. Hinge the frame ya built to both sides,then have steel tubing ride on rollers to the frame rails on the bed itself. So they rise and fall as the dump bed does. Not sure if I make sense
We just make sure to load it fairly even and it’s been great so far👍 Thanks John
Very cool need dimensions of trailer box
4’x8’x12”👍
@@tickcreekranch thank you
Awesome work. If you didn't have the time/tools/skills to do this, do you or anyone have a good recommendation for something commercial that would be roughly equivalent?
Look at King Cutter 1.5 ton hydraulic dump. They look like a nice setup
@@tickcreekranch thank you!
Great Video. How long is the mast? At fully extended what dump angle did you get?
The mast is just over 7’ and achieved a 46 degree dump angle. Been very pleased with it. Thanks Ruben
What's the dimensions of the bed? Great design would like to make one for my Kubota RTV. Great video also
4’x8’x12” Thank you Ben
Love the tandem adapter, but wondering why bother with springs?
Height and ride. It’s really smooth on our rough terrain 👍
Another awesome project. I don't know how much you'd have to sell that for if you made them for people, but that would be awesome to have.
Thanks so much! I don’t think I could stand building another one in my driveway…lol Maybe after the house I’ll build another shop.
@@tickcreekranch yeah its bad enough building stuff in/out of my garage. Built a chickshaw last year.
Excellent build! Just subbed. You have inspired me to do something with all the junk laying on my property…
What web site did you use to purchase the hinge that keeps the collar on the mast and the cast iron wheel and bearing assembly?
Also, is that 1” rock? Looks great.
Wow that’s awesome , I might copy this idea , any idea what it cost
Please do! About 1700 all in👍
How much would it coat to build one like this… ballpark amount? Do you have a parts list? So i can price it out?
Awesome trailer build! Where did you get the balloon wheels?
Amazon
Nice... how's the house coming along?
Been stalled but l, we’re about to get at it again👍
Do you know roughly the total weight and what tongue weight it has on it? I'm currently in the process of building something similar
Estimated 300 to 350 lbs with 75 on the tongue. I’ll get around to actually weighing it one of these days. I built it keeping in mind that it will eventually get towed most of the time with a sxs.
I'm curious why you didn't use a hydraulic lift like most dump trailers have. Seems like one way or another you needed to add a power source and I'm curious why you went with the winch instead of a traditional lift.
This is cheaper and is lighter.
What welder you use?
A Lincoln 180 220v👍
Nice load of ash
Where did you buy those wheels and tires at? thanks
Amazon
@@tickcreekranch thanks
How much money roughly did you have in this?
@@765Guys about 1700 total
What size ATV are you using
Honda 500
What size is this trailer?
4’x8’x12”👍
Идея интересная. Варить поперечными швами раму в месте крепления рессор неправильно. Вес этой конструкции как половина веса квадроцикла, что тоже не очень, можно было и потоньше металл взять. Ось балансира нужно было размещать за серединой прицепа иначе в один прекрасный момент прицеп может поднять квадроцикл. Ну и в Америке краску не продают? Столько работы и все ржавое.
I actually lol'd when your kid ran by chasing the dog with what looked to be a nerf gun😂
Furry moving targets!
Ça c est une superbe remorque...c est pas les merdes vendus dans le commerce et qui valent une fortune,alors que les tôles sont aussi épaisses que des feuilles de papier cigarettes
Built to be pulled by a TRACTOR more than an ATV ....
It’s a perfect match for a sxs or compact tractor for sure
Loss the beard and be reasonable , way overboard
🤨
That's so sick
