Looks pretty cool, Jose. I'm curious how your servos are mechanically attached, so that they tip the tub. How much torque do they have? Will you be covering the servos up, so they don't get burried with the load? The truck looks very nice!

I think you may have just came up with a recipe for "the poor mans side dump". Brilliant idea.
