If you have sufficient privileges you can try posting in the Parts Wanted in Steel Soldiers Classifieds section Depending on freight costs, might be worth it to check: Boyce Equipment seems to have some in stock, in Utah. Eastern Surplus is in Pa. Big Mikes Motor Pool, he's in Southern New...

In general between scissor and cylinder you might be right. I have spent the last day reading a large amount of things that agree with both of us, except in the area of actual weight capacity and weight distribution on the bed itself being significantly better with cylinder (but that's a metric...

If it's a dump bed it has to lift one side of the bed. I am familiar with them, having made parts for dump trucks for about a decade. I was merely questioning the safety of such a device used in this heavy duty application, as it seems more unstable than traditional dump bed designs which...

Looking through more specific directions, it is recommended to mount at a distance of 97" for 45 degrees, and with a 12" overhang it would have a capacity of 10.3 tons. For 50 degrees it's at 88", with 12" overhang it would be 9.3 tons. It is bigger lift than it appeared and does recommend...

Here is a manufacturers manual on the item. If you go through, it does lower the recommended capacity for use depending on where the lift is mounted, as well as giving pretty good information on the mounting instructions. In conjunction with the calculator I gave you earlier, you can get your...

https://ccsurplusparts.com/products/dump-bed-hoist-kit-complete-with-everything-24-or-12-volt The kit these guys sell looks to be the same/similar and they have it mounted on the cross member that is between the axles. They seem to feel pretty confident in putting it on trucks, but I still...

Dump beds are typically built with the ram in the back for added stability. That device could very well be capable of lifting the weight that it says, but to get it to any moderate height it looks as if it would have to go very close to the pivot point. If I was going to build on for that much...

https://www.inchcalculator.com/rise-run-degrees-calculator/ Here is a simple rise over run calculator that operates on inches. With this you can calculate the specific distance you need your part to be from the rear pins.

The distance to place from the pins would entirely depend on how high you want to lift the bed. The lift of the bed would be minimal based on the actual specifications of the item that you want. The lift could be calculated from the overall height of the lift with the placement of the part...
