I have been working on converting my 923 to a dump. I almost have everything completed, with one thing to figure out. The PTO I am using has a oil line that needs pressure from transmission to lube it. Can anyone with a PTO and the Allison tell me where a pressure port on the transmission is?
Thanks in advance Jonathan

If a guy made a kit of sorts so another guy could turn his M939 series truck into a dump then a guy could probably make a few dabloons. I would LOVE it if my M925A1's bed had a dump! How SWEET would THAT be!

Nice I am currently in the process of doing the same thing. Just got through mounting my home made hinges, now I just need to get my hands on a dump hoist. Looking for a scissors hoist as opposed to a telescopic ram so I don't have to build a box on the front of the bed like yours. Looks awesome....

She has made many loads! We maxed out the side height with 18 tons of sand and it pushed it right up. I actually sold the truck to my good friend and he hauled 24 loads in 4 days. I will admit I did not think the truck would be as hydraulically strong as it is. Fun practical project.
