I build 12V Hydraulic Dump Trailer – Remote Controlled

Video Description

I built a fully independent hydraulic dump trailer that works with any vehicle — a lawn tractor, ATV, or even a car. The trailer has its own 12V hydraulic power unit, powered by a regular battery and controlled by a wireless remote. It can easily handle large amounts of gravel, soil, or other heavy materials thanks to the hydraulic lift system. The pump was repurposed from a van liftgate, and the control is wired through a winch relay with a remote controller. This setup makes the trailer completely self-sufficient — no need to connect it to the towing vehicle's power. It’s still a work in progress — I plan to add fenders and a few finishing touches. But overall, it’s already super practical and fun to use
