TruckCraft was the first with an all aluminum pickup dump insert, the TC-120 ULTRA. We continue to innovate with our steel TC-101 MAGNUM. Boasting a 6,200 pound true lift capacity, the unit uses a front telescopic cylinder to get your load down low in your pickup bed for a safer center of gravity. The MAGNUM’s all 6061 T6 aluminum subframe cuts weight and never needs paint maintenance.

TruckCraft was the first with an all aluminum pickup dump insert, the TC-120 ULTRA. We were first to offer a three-year warranty and first with a 150 amp resettable circuit breaker standard in every wiring harness. There are no grease points on any of our insert dumpers because they are designed to use no-lube nylon bearings at every pivot point. We continue to innovate with our steel TC-101 MAGNUM, Providing a 6,200 pound true lift capacity. The unit uses a 3-stage front telescopic cylinder to get your load down low in your pickup bed for a safer center of gravity. The MAGNUM’s all 6061 T6 aluminum sub frame cuts weight and never needs paint maintenance.

If you’re scratching your head and wondering what the real differences in pickup dump inserts are, you should check out the features of TruckCraft’s TC-101 MAGNUM.

The big question – how much can it dump? Let’s face it, if it dumps wimpy it’s because it’s designed wimpy. The dump capacity of MAGNUM is 6,200 lbs, and it is backed with a three year limited warranty, including the MONARCH™ power unit, to give you confidence it will dump 6,200 lbs everyday, period. The muscle doing the heavy lifting is the U.S.A.- made three stage telescopic cylinder. It has premium chromed rod sections and  aluminum glands with internal wear bands, premium components to be sure, and though you don’t see them, they are just two of the many designed-in reasons for long life and excellent performance of TruckCraft dump inserts.

Check out the powder coat finish. As you probably already know, preparation is everything in powder coating. That’s why we first grit blast the tub and tailgate to clean and mechanically etch the steel for good primer adhesion. Then they’re coated with zinc-rich primer prior to powder coating. Then comes the final baked-on powder coat application. The result is a durable, long lasting finish that looks good and protects your investment. Chemical dipping or solvent-wiping are common powder coat prep processes, but only grit blast prep earns the right to wear the TruckCraft logo.

Check out MAGNUM’s weight-saving aluminum sub frame- another reason why TruckCraft inserts are a cut above other dump inserts on the market today.  The extruded T6 alloy subframe has TruckCraft’s standard two-bolt installation system built in so there are no extra mounting clamps or holes in your truck bed required for mounting.  Advantages of T6 are that it has the same tensile strength as steel, so it is half steel’s weight but equal in strength, and is rust-free with no maintenance required. The T6 subframe is just one of the weight-saving components resulting in MAGNUM’s best-in-class 600 lb. weight.

MAGNUM is designed to be virtually maintenance-free.  All five pivot points (two dump hinges and three cylinder pivots) have premium lubed-for-life bushings installed so there is no “grease” maintenance needed. In fact, an occasional washing, checking the hydraulic fluid level twice a year, and inspecting daily for debris or damage is all the maintenance MAGNUM ever needs to be dependable and well-groomed.

The TC – 121 ULTRA has been engineered from the ground up to provide users with years of maintenance free service. The body and frame are designed and constructed entirely of aluminum and stainless steel to provide durability and resistance to rust and corrosion. TruckCraft’s innovative use of aluminum alloy extrusions welded to sheet aluminum enables them to offer a pickup dump insert that is 300 – 350 lbs. lighter than comparable steel units. The result is a unit that weighs less, hauls more payload, and will be less expensive to operate and maintain. This classy accessory for your pickup is available through distribution nationwide, and in Canada .

Aluminum Rails add Overall Strength – The TC-121 design utilizes a polished and fluted aluminum alloy extrusion on the top box rail of the body sides, and the top and bottom of the tailgate. This provides maximum strength at a minimum weight while adding a cool accessory to your truck.

3 Stage Telescopic Lift and Cab Protector – The ULTRA hoist system utilizes a heavy duty, three stage, telescopic cylinder with chromed rod sections. The hoist has been custom designed by TruckCraft to lift 7,000 lbs. to a 47 degree dump angle in just 18 seconds. The aerodynamic cab protector (shown) provides low wind resistance and great visiblity. The cab protector and a full tarp system are options that can be easily added to the TC-121 at any time.

Power Unit and Standard Remote Dump Control – A compact, one-piece MONARCH®power unit is factory mounted under the tub in close proximity to the hoist cylinder. The remote control buttons activate the motor/hydraulic pump from within the cab, or up to 12 feet away. One 12 volt battery cable (supplied) is the only electrical connection required.

150 amp reset able in-line circuit breaker – safeguards power in, and allows manually switching off power under truck hood to disable unattended insert.

Aside from being a smart business investment, truck upkeep is also a prudent safety precaution. Breakdowns and even accidents can sometimes be avoided if regular maintenance procedures are followed.

When you begin working with hydraulic pump drives, they can be a bit overwhelming. But, it doesn"t have to be that way. Below we will dive into some pump drive basic info and review the key manufacturers.

A hydraulic pump drive(also referred to as a pump drive) is a device that connects a prime mover to a hydraulic pump. There are several different sizes & configurations available. There are also several different input options, which we will go into more detail about later.

The multi-pad pump drives have a gear train in them to drive the pumps and can be a 1:1 ratio or an increasing or decreasing ratio to drive the hydraulic pumps at the optimal RPM while running the engine at its optimal RPM.

There are various terms used in the field for pump drives. If you hear any of the below nicknames, they are likely referring to a hydraulic pump drive.

Hydraulic pump drives are found in various applications, with the most common being marine, cranes, drilling rigs, construction equipment, and agricultural applications. They can power hoists, boom cylinders, outriggers, drill heads, and power the machine through hydraulic motors.

As machines have gotten more complex in recent years, they now need power for multiple actions during use. Therefore, it is much easier to design a system that drives these loads hydraulically than drive the loads mechanically.

That is where the hydraulic pump drive comes into play in various applications. Additionally, pump drives are pretty simple, comprised of a gearbox with an input, bearings, gears, and outputs to mount with the hydraulic pumps.

The simplest pump drive available is a single pump direct drive, consisting of a flex plate and bell housing plate coupled to one hydraulic pump. Pump drives come in a variety of output sizes, going up to five outputs.

There are remote inputs, with the most common being keyed input shafts or flanged input shafts. Lastly, there are clutch inputs, with the most common being a mechanically engaged clutch. Palmer Johnson has the resources to also offer pneumatic or hydraulic engaged clutch inputs for pump drives.

The most common pump drive manufacturers are Funk, Durst, and Twin Disc. All three manufacturers offer a full array of pump drive sizes, ranging from one pad all the way up to a five pad option.

In addition, they all offer an expansive list of input and output options as well as several ratio options that vary depending on the particular pump drive model.

Palmer Johnson is an authorized distributor for Funk, Durst, and Twin Disc with decades of experience supporting these product lines. So whether you need a pump drive for a brand new application or need to replace an existing pump drive that is in use, Palmer Johnson has you covered!
