Truck Chassis Converted To Gravity Box
 ✖  |
We converted a 1952 truck chassis into a heavy-duty trailer fitted with a gravity box. The cab and motor were removed and the frame cut off at the front cross member. The tongue is made out of 2-in. dia. pipe that attaches to heavy 2 by 12-in. flat irons that extend out from the front axle. The tongue pivots on a pin. A piece of flat iron connects the tongue to a tie rod so that the wheels turn in the direction of travel. We added two 2 by 10 planks to the top of the Killbros gravity box to increase capacity.
