    If its deosnt already dump your gaonna have some serious work to sub out unless you can weld and have access to steel. I'v never done this but I'm gonna try and build trailer from scratch this winter. I figure you'll need to weld a sub frame that lifts off the original on a hinge. Northertool.com has most of the parts I'v been looking for, for my trailer project. Maybe check them out.

          I think buying a dump truck is your best bet now that i think about it. Converting your trailer will be a lot of work.

                  Sometimes?!

                  I Have a 2004 5x10 carry on trailer with a gate and side rails and well where there would usually be a dump pin there is a bolt in mine and i found out that if i ever want to i can take my gate off with a slip of 2 pins and take that bolt off and put a pin there and it can dump. Look Where the trailer connects to the tounge and check it might work!
