Abstract: A dump body, with a floor panel assembly, a first sidewall, a second sidewall, a front wall panel assembly, and a canopy panel is disclosed. The floor panel assembly is equipped with a first frame assembly which includes a pair of spaced rails and a plurality of cross members. The pair of spaced rails overlay the plurality of cross members and is generally perpendicularly positioned relative to the pair of spaced rails. The front wall panel assembly includes a second frame assembly having a pair of spaced rails and at least one cross member being in a generally perpendicular overlay position relative to the pair of spaced rails. The canopy panel extends outwards from the front wall panel assembly and is attached to a top edge portion of the front wall panel assembly.

Abstract: A hoist assembly for movable actuation of a dump body relative to a truck frame is disclosed. The dump body includes an underbody floor assembly with a first cross-member and a second cross-member. The first cross-member and the second cross-member are spaced apart from each other and are rectangular-shaped. The hoist assembly includes a cylinder assembly with a rod member movably positionable within a cylinder body. The cylinder body is coupled to the truck frame. A rod end mounting assembly includes a bracket member to distribute a weight of the dump body to the cylinder assembly. The bracket member includes a first end integrally and contiguously attached to two adjacent sides of the first cross-member, and a second end integrally and contiguously attached to two adjacent side of the second cross-member. Moreover, an end of the rod member is coupled to a center portion of the bracket member.
