Innovation Description and Benefit:
Our shed currently has a 4-door dump truck with a short-sided dump bed that has the capabilities of lowering the sides down to gain better access to the bed of the truck. When you lower the sides of the bed, the sides hit and rest on the rear tires, causing the tire to rub if the truck is in motion. With these new bumpers we are able to set signs, pothole patch, etc. without having to open and shut the sides of the bed every time we have to move the truck up only a few feet to the next pothole or to the next place a road work sign is needed.
