I bought a used EZ Dumper 8ft insert a month ago. Had to travel some and knew it needed a pump. Floor was replaced already because it was a salt spreader years ago. It sat for eight years and only needed a pump to be in operation. Trailers here were 4k for a used single axle dump. 5-8k for twin axles all rotten and beat up locally-owned. I got mine for 700 complete. It dumped 4k like nothing and it's going on it's own trailer frame as twin axle eventually built as lowboy. My 3/4T pickup bed trailer hauls it just fine and so will my F350 if I want it in one of the trucks. Pulled it 70 miles home with my 1/2T Z71 in the old square body pu bed trailer. Best investment in years and I should have bought one sooner. Too old and broken to load fire wood as logs or even cutup big rounds or four foot short logs. They load me, I go dump and can alway toss in firewood already ordered to be moved elsewhere anytime. Tree serice used to load just the trailer if I delivered it onsite to them as they do removals.

The underside is near mint and it is definitely the best insert dump made imho. Well designed, well built and could handle 6k in weight no sweat.

Also bought his old concrete forms and the salt spreader for another hondo. Good day good find. Got two complete pumps used locally just incase one takes a dump. All in all done for 1k plus fifty bucks in fuel. It only took a weekend to accomplish and plenty of running around. I'm calling it a win win.
can't beat that's for sure.

It took eight months to find it. Found others but nothing this nice. The tailgate needs to be replaced but it is complete and still works. After four years stuffed in the ground it looks like Swiss cheese on one side 😆

The big mistake to fix this winter is the corner ribs added that were stitch welded inside, big mistake, from a likely lazy repairman. I got nothing else to explain that. Nice plate in there. The base is very nice.20230618_191023.jpg20230620_192823.jpg20230620_192918.jpg
