I've never really worried about how many FEL scoops a P/U would hold,
1*I worry more about how many SHOVEL scoops it will take to unload!!
2*Watch the springs and don't crush the body mounts.

1*
Bought a load handler for my 1986 Dodge D 50 Pick Up at Wall Mart yesterday.
Tried it out this morning.
It sure beats shoveling the dirt off of the truck.
Don't know how many BX 23 loader buckets I can haul it at a time.
So far 3 buckets in the truck is working pretty good and it sure beats hauling one bucket down the hill at a time with the BX.
Only problem I ran into was I couldn't get back up the front yard hill after unloading the last pickup load of dirt.
Would be nice if the D 50 was a 4 wheel drive.
Didn't know the LOAD HANDLERS worked so well or I would have had one a long time ago!

2*I don't know If I'm overloading my truck or not because I don't know what A bx 23 loader of dirt weighs and I don't know the empty weight of my Dodge D 50. G V W is 4045 pounds.
