1994 F-450 diesel??

[SkwerI]

Deva did some research on dump inserts a couple years ago when he bought his F350. I bet he knows the score.

 

[brendonv]

Steel inserts (8') are $2500, aluminum $4550. That's Truck Craft brand, tough stuff.

 

[Tucker943]

Hey tucker you want to sell your 450, ?? Doesn't sound like you'd part, those trucks are sharp!

That truck is too good to me to send it on down the road. LOL. Ive often thought about selling it and upgrading but until the day it starts failing me, or lacks the power to get the job done, I cant see a reason to upgrade.

Thanks Brendon, I was looking at the ez dumper inserts but I think they're a little more than that.

[brendonv]

That price is for these.

 

[thattreeguy]

if you look around here and near willy and bounce you will find 1 ton 4x4 diesel chip trucks
old davey rigs
pick em up cheap, usually have to do the front end and some other maint.

but you'd have a sweet 8 ft bed, with tool boxes and front compartment big enough for saws and gear
on a 1 ton 4x4

Mike has a good reputation around here, for another grand you can get three times the truck and already on the West coast

That's a good truck Willie, we envy you West Coasters with your rust free vehicles.

 

[sotc]

Haha, in Kodiak, the paper was full of ads for 'good running truck, Kodiak body' I am very glad we don't salt roads here and would never buy a truck with that kind of cancer! That outfit does a nice job of cutting the cancer out of chip boxes and repairing

[littlenick]

[brendonv]

What's a budget?

 

[lumberjack]

Budgets are for accountants and pencil whippers!

 

[Monkeywithasaw]

[littlenick]

[brendonv]

So what's a little more?

 

[littlenick]

I drove a friends truck to Chambersburg, PA and picked up his new Truck Craft aluminum dumper with roof guard. Nice dump insert. Tailgate opened like a pickup, or hinged at the top. I could have bought that truck in '04 for $15k. It was a '99 Cummins with an 8.5 Fisher V plow, dumper, and only 38k miles, absolutely mint.

 

[sotc]

Heres some pretty cheap boxes, more than $1500 in steel sitting there

Just got a quote from EZ Dumper for their 8 ft. steel insert, 1995.00 new in PA. I'm waiting for a quote from the California dealer, and for shipping youch!

[sotc]

Or save 500 and get a full chip box!

JP, they are made in Canada in Abbotsford (an hour or so East of Vancouver BC) I believe, here is a link, might get better shipping if the bed is similar in price: http://www.ezdumpercanada.com/
