@msgjd I have never ever seen a drop-in dump kit or ever knew someone actually could do that either! I rather like it .. and haha to probably laughing back at the dump trucks when they can't get to where you had been to before hm?

haha , the M880 bed already had holes drilled where the town hwy dept secured the steam genny , so what's a few more?

The big trucks got very worried about being replaced after they saw where the M880 had to dump the loads , they would've had their boxes and mirrors snagged by pesky tree limbs, or snagged wires, or squeezed like a walnut cracker between the trees.. When it came time for the cow/horse barn remodel, plenty of material got dumped inside a large section of the gutted structure .. Although only 1-yard at a time, it was better than one tractor bucket at a time, or a wheelbarrow & shovel .. Anything is better than a shovel or pitchfork, but those get the job done too,, eventually!

btw @msgjd its unrelated but either way I have known about this (theres several versions of this on youtube by now apparently especially with or without the embedded captioning)

thats another case of the small one showing up the big one!
(actually sad fact is that what we call a compact economy car nowaday is literally the same size as what an old economy sedan car was but mm ah well not going talk about that here as its not quite the forum for that sort of topics)

At least the fella has a doorway to open his door ! I have had to do similar things like that a few times with jeeps etc, and had to crawl out the rear hatch
