Buyer's guide

What to know before you buy a dump bed

Rebuild the truck you already know

A worn-out bed on a good chassis is not a reason to replace the whole truck. If the engine, transmission and rears are solid and you know the maintenance history, putting a fresh bed on it is almost always cheaper than buying somebody else's unknown truck. We sell beds pulled from units we've parted out and beds bought outright — with the hoist, or without it if you're keeping yours.

Steel or aluminum comes down to what you haul

Steel takes the hit. If you're loading rock, rip-rap, broken concrete or demo debris, or if an operator is dropping material from height, buy steel and accept the weight. Aluminum saves roughly 1,500 to 2,500 pounds depending on size, and every pound of that becomes payload — which is the right trade on sand, base, topsoil and asphalt where you hit your weight limit before you fill the box. Look at the floor thickness on any used bed and check whether it's been patched, because patches tell you what the bed has been through.

Size it to your chassis and your material

Bed length has to work with your wheelbase and your cab-to-axle measurement, and bed height has to work with the loader that's filling it. Capacity is where buyers get it wrong: a 16-foot bed that holds 16 cubic yards is fine for topsoil but will put you over legal weight long before it's full of wet base or rock. Figure your load by weight, not by volume, then pick the box. Send us your chassis specs and what you're hauling and we'll tell you what size makes sense.

The hoist is the expensive part

Whether it's a scissor hoist, a telescopic cylinder or a straight underbody ram, the hoist decides whether this purchase is a good deal or a headache. We cycle every hoist we sell and note its condition in the listing. What matters: the cylinder holds without drifting, the seals are dry, the pins and bushings aren't worn oval, and the mounting points on the subframe are sound and not cracked or previously welded. A hoist with a leaking packing is a normal repair. A cracked hoist mount is a fabrication job.

Check the frame and the subframe, not just the box

The bed sits on a subframe, and the subframe carries the load into the truck's frame rails. Cracked crossmembers, old repair welds at the hinge points and elongated pivot pin holes are the things that turn a cheap bed into an expensive one. When we know a bed has been repaired, it's in the listing with photos of the repair.

Tailgate, hardware and what's included

A bed is only as good as the parts hanging off it. Every listing states whether the tailgate, air cylinder, latches, hinge pins, tarp system and light kit are included, and what condition they're in. Missing pieces aren't necessarily a problem — they're just a line item you should know about before you agree on a price. Ask and we'll photograph any part you want to see up close.

Installation

Swapping a bed means pulling the old body, setting the new one, mounting the hoist, tying into the hydraulics and re-plumbing the truck. {{INSTALL_POLICY}} Call before you buy so we can confirm the bed fits your chassis.

Why buy from CN Trucks

Ready to work, not a project.
Units are gone over before they go up, and anything we know needs attention is written into the listing. You are buying a truck that can take a job Monday, not one that goes to your shop first.
Parts that actually fit.
Send a photo of what came off and we will match it — pumps, spray heads, valves, plumbing. Used parts are priced as used, and we tell you what they came off of.
Ask and we go look.
Hour meter, frame rail, tank interior, a weld you want a second opinion on. Tell us what you need to see and we check it before you drive out.
We tell you what we know — and what we do not.
Miles, hours, known issues, what has been replaced. If we do not have service records on a unit, we say that instead of guessing.
Sold units stay up.
We leave them online with their specs and their price, so you can see what a truck like yours actually went for. If it says Sold, it is sold — call and we will tell you what is close.
Bring your mechanic.
Come see it, send somebody, or line up a pre-purchase inspection. We are not in a hurry to hide anything.

Got a question about a truck? Ask it.

Call and somebody who's walked around the unit picks up. Want a photo of the frame rail, the tank saddle, or the hour meter? Ask and we'll go shoot it.
