Reply:I used to pull dump trailers like that when I was younger (still do it part-time). I never rolled one but have seen a couple go over. You have to be pretty level when dumping because if they lean too far they'll go over, the load can also stick in the nose and when the rest of the load breaks free the top of the trailer will sway a bit side to side and they can go over. Sometimes its just poor maintenance of the rear hinge pin, when the trailer goes up, all of the weight of the load and the box are resting on a 2" round shaft - if that breaks, it's definitely going over. Good luck with that one, it looks like alot of work!!!Sure, I can fix it... I got a welder!!!
