Does anyone have a link for 3 Way Tipping Trailer Hinges?
The ball and socket variety?

TIA!

I wonder if you could use a trlr. ball (4) and just the right size and legnth pipe, maybe sch. 80 for the socket.
You could drill a small hole just in the right spot for a "keeper" pin that would keep your pinned pair of hinges the pivot point. This leads to the next question of the cyl. mounting and location. From what I remember seeing, the cyl. is right in the middle of the body and usually a vertically mounted telescoping type. Show us what you find.

Yes, and thnk you Rusty for the reply.
I do not see that it is rocket science BUT,
I still want to find them and "shop" them..

If I were to do it, I would probably go w/ a
2.125" ID DOM tube perhaps...

What's your application? At first what came to mind was the smallerish trailer, 2 axle, towed by a tractor, I remember seeing orange color ones at the JD dealer that did a lot of work with the golf courses. But now I remember on some of the "town" snowplow trucks up here have a crazy forward and sideway dumping bed to feed salt sand to the spinner. If I get a chance I'll stop in there and see what I can lean. At least the body make.
