#1108 - Hi-Sides™ volume enhancer
This option is a ruggedly designed and engineered hardware kit to increase the volume carrying capacity of the full-sized Dump-Pro® from its original 2 cubic yards to either 4 or 5 cubic yards. Hi-Sides comes only as a kit (even if Dump-Pro is purchased assembled). The complete hardware system is added to the user-supplied and finished 3/4" plywood sides of the user's choosing*. The system is designed to "float" and automatically adjust itself to large variations in ambient temperature, but still be rugged and strong; not a small engineering feat, since the non rusting poly dump body it rests upon changes size with temperature. No "floppy sides" with this option!! The clips holding the plywood also act as bungee attachments for the optional tarp system.
Below shows the powder-coated steel parts and hardware supplied. The major parts are 3@ plastic dump body lip reinforcing tubes (2@ long, 1@ short), 10@ plywood and bungee clips, 2@ plywood front corner braces, 5@ additional plywood mounting brackets, 1@ top plywood brace, system hardware and a complete, well-documented manual.
Below is a close-up of what 1 plywood side clip system looks like before it is assembled to the dump body lip and reinforcing tube. It is VERY rugged and results in stiff and rigid side panels:
Hi-Sides can be retrofitted to an existing Dump-Pro or ordered with a new Dump-Pro.

================================== *Drawings for plywood provided. This is because you can then buy plywood and make sides that specifically fits your budget and needs. For instance, you can locally buy either very low cost unfinished plywood or buy the very best marine plywood available and professionally finish with your business logo and information painted on the sides (or anything else in-between) !!
