Dump Wagon

[clee4020]

We have several old, but still good cotton wagons that were modifed into a silage wagons that we use every when cutting silage. There are baically a metal frame and running gear farm wagons approx. 6' wide and 14' to 16' long with wood sides 5' tall. We use a sliding gate to pull silage out of the wagon with another tractor. I would like to be able to turn them into hydraulic dump wagons using tractor hydraulics so they could also be used to haul/dump dirt and gravel on the farm.

Any suggestions? Designs or Drawings? What size cylinder needed? Wagon load of silage approx. weighs 8,000 lbs.

10,000 lbs at 1500 psi. Should work. They make larger ones.
