Looking to buy deuce

New member here, first post. I'm looking to potentially buy a duece and a half for use as a daily driver. I want one with the cargo bed for the fold down sides and tailgate, BUT the only holdup is I can't seem to remember if they've got a dump feature to them or not. I do lawn care for a buddy of mine in my spare time and being able to load it with brush and then not having to unload it would be nice, plus using it as a recovery vehicle, similar to a rollback (using ramps and a winch) would be easier if the bed tilted for low ride height vehicles (such as my camaro). I know I can make it do what I want, BUT it'd be nice if it did it already...

Thanks in advance
Ike

Welcome , they do not dump from the factory . Do some searching of the deuce and deuce modding forums , there are many threads on converting to a dump . The dropside deuce is a M35A2C. With only a 12 foot bed I don't know how well it will work for a car hauler , with the bed height even really long ramps are going to be steep .

It'll be short, but if the front bumper to rear tire length is less than 12 ft it'll work. I know the ramps would be steep, and the angle where they meet the bed is more what I'm worried about, hence dump being nice. I don't want to drive around with a dump truck style box because it'll limit capabilities.
