Tech/Engineering - Construction / Civil Engineering | | Portuguese term or phrase: caçamba | Can anyone remember the right name for this part of a dump truck (e.g. on a Randon RK 425B). I know what it is but can't remeber the word in English...(and it's a rush job)!
Tks a lot. |

Are you referring to the part that actually tips the load out at the back of the truck?
In which case, the above.

An articulated dump truck has a hinge between the cab and the DUMP BOX, but is distinct from semi trailer trucks in that the cab is a permanent fixture, not a separable vehicle....
AND...
Heavy duty truck dump box for pickup trucks capable of lifting, carrying, or hauling 2000 pounds of cargo.

HYDRAULIC DUMP BOX Dump box equipped with self-contained power pack and front ... SELF POWERED HYDRAULIC DUMP BOX Operates as a conventional dump box. ...

| Grading comment Tks to all for the suggestions. As the job I needed this for was a rush one (about an hour to do it!), I didn't have time to even check out your suggestions, but went for the one that seemed to fit best. Not ideal, I know, but what can you do?
