J397 Rear Tipping Wagon Dodge
414
This model had the rear bed missing which is quite common. So I thought of a replacement by using the 4 wheel hand trailer that was missing the drawbar and the hinge hole was broken off. The dimensions looked OK but on matching up the tipping hinge width was just a few 100ths out, but by careful trimming it fitted just fine with new holes drilled in the trailer part just gave enough clearance. The rear end was removed and trimmed to fit and a hinge added. I may redo this part, not quite happy with it but it works. A new lifting mechanism was created and it all went together quite well. Note the images to see additional trimming to the trailer part.
