    Looking to lease two dump trailers for a new customer. Our trucks are NOT equipped with wet kits. Years ago we had a dump trailer that was equipped with its on tank for operating the dump. Do these type of dump trailers still exist? Any idea where I could possiby lease a couple? At this time equipping our trucks with wet kits is not an option.

    Nope, you'll most likely have to put the PTO and tank on your tractor. If you can find an old dump with a 34' frame and a 32' box you could mount the tank on the front.

    There's few in the Truckpaper website for sale with the tank mounted at the front of the frame. East and MAC both. These only have the tank the truck still needs the pump and controls.
