do it as well as you can,but learn to do it better
Small sheds, we did a few of the cold rolled sheds on a few tight sites. Supplier had loads to go at but wanted us to travel all over.
they're a tidy enough 'tin tent' but won't stick much in the way of loading ... ok for keeping stuff out the weather

What’s it going on? Also never seen a 3ton with twin ripping rams?
Using it behind father's little Tafe 45. Need to wrap my brain around hydraulics as 2 pipes on trailer for tip. but only one on back of tractor. Its got a loader with aux circuits so I'm sure it's sortable one way or other. Not fussed about the swivel function on dumper as I think it might be a bit inclined to fall over. Seller made the trailer when the engine blew on his dumper. Air cooled? He says it was 3 ton and I'd trust him as he's a very experienced plant mechanic in his day job.

Probably just the fact it’s a older dumper so they over engineered everything, you’ll find you get more than 3 ton in it I bet ;)

Yeah all Agri trailers are single acting rams, dumpers are twin… you’ll probably need a change over valve , I’m sure someone else will soon be along to give a more technical answer 😁

you may well have a two way service connection on the arse of yon traccy, (a P and a T connector),apart from your one way with return to tank for a single acting ram ... but they'll need a two way valve to make the tip rams work on the new acquisition

the P & T lines from Traccy go to the P&T on the valve .. the tip rams'll need tee-ing together (two 'up' ports together, two 'down' ports together) and the single lines from each will go to the A & B ports on the valve

Thanks. I don't understand... but I know a man that will... annoyingly I'm pretty hot on hydronics, but hydraulics not so much. And deffo only one pipe on arse of tractor.

you're going to have to run a P & T from your loader services then, unless you have a spare slice on your loader valve ... just tee into the P&T supplying the loader valve

You might not have to have to go as far as the loader valve. If the rear axle fill point is on the back you can quite easily fit a q/r hyd fitting in its place then a spool could be mounted on the drawbar reachable from the driving seat. This would mean adding a spool which obviously wouldn't be needed if using the loader one but depending on the filler location could be a far neater run of pipes. Would also mean easy to make the rotate work aswell. No necessarily for tipping but always nice to point the skip at the digger. And depending how far the enthusiasm ran you could always put a 3 bank of spools in and plumb the third into the breaks dependant on there design for if the sh** hits the fan or just steady down hill decents
