Homemade Articulating Dump Truck and Mini Excavator
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 6 фев 2025
- Finally I have my homemade articulating dump truck going again. I pair it with my Rippa 319 Mini excavator and it’s a perfect match. My dump truck has been out of commission for the past few years due to broken rear CV joints. This video covers the repairs along with using the 420cc predator dump truck with my Chinese mini Excavator.

2k lbs in that thing? It's going to snap in two.
Maybe if you built it 😂
@@Mikefestiva dude you but welded axle shafts... that thing screams quality.
@@mp-xt2rg At least I can build something like this. Let’s see what you can build?
You got one video one your channel 👍
@@Mikefestiva No doubt you build lots of things. Its all crap but you have lots of it!
@@mp-xt2rg Hopefully life starts turning around for you man. 👍
Take care and try to make the best of it.
Nothing starts a weekend better than a Mike Festiva video!!!
Right on! I really appreciate it! Have a great weekend 😊👍
Ain't that the truth 🎉
Your mini articulated dump truck is the best build series I've ever seen on RUclips, and I'm saying that from a background of engineering fabrication, it's just the best.
Thanks I really appreciate it! 😊👍
Dude so glad to see old machines from your previous builds! You should do some short "where is it now" videos where you do quick walk arounds
Oh yeah I remember watching that entire build serie!
Mike of all your builds the Articulated dumper is my favorite and nice to see it back in action. That little excavator is a workhorse!
The articulating mini dump is my favorite series. There is alot of education and tips for people...as well as some sweet drum solos!
I loved that Articulating truck build. I've watched that playlist half a dozen times now.
Thanks 😊 I really appreciate it 👍
The articulating dump drunk was one of the best build I have ever seen on RUclips, It is good to see it back in action.
We viewers need to get you to a million subs..... you have worked diligently for years, you have earned it. The fickle finger of algorithm has not been as good to you and your quality videos. Thanks mike!
one of my favorite projects of yours. the engineering on that center joint was awesome to watch.
Right on! I really appreciate it, definitely a fun build for sure. Don’t think I can devote that kind of time on future projects anymore, after having my second son time became really valuable, plus they grow up so fast.
Definitely glad I made it though and at least I have the video series to watch some day. I haven’t yet ever gone back and watched them yet. Have a great weekend 😊👍
You need to be blowing up, you have been making great content for years now. Your design, fabrication, and creative approach to building is inspiring. Thank you!
Thank you! I really appreciate it man 😊👍
It would be nice but I think somehow I got on the wrong side of YT, they seem to not even notify most of my subscribers when I posted a new anymore.
I'm supper Glad you made a new video on this, after the sawmill build this was my most favorite!!!
With that kind of setup I might actually enjoy doing firewood!😂 Glad to see the mini dumper back up and going Mike!
Right on 👍 thanks William 😊
G'day Mike, good to see this little truck back up and running. I know copped a bit of flack when building it, but watching this clip of it articulating and climbing over obstacles while carrying small loads must silence most of those armchair engineers. It really is an amazing little truck you fabricated from scratch, and I loved those build series too.
I was wondering why we hadn't seen the dump truck recently. Glad you have it back in service.
I got unsubscribed from over 75 % of my channels.
You were one.
Glad to have you back!
Cheers
Terry
Thanks for subscribing again Terry! I don’t know why TY keeps doing that???
dude that thing is perfect for building mountain bike trails
You have so many cool toys! I need to buy some property to justify getting toys like these
The articulating dump truck is one of my favorite things you've made, Mike. Glad you resurrected that thing! Such a great machine.
Thanks Bryan 😊👍 Have a great weekend
Good to see the ol mountain goat in use again. Great video Mike!
That truck is awesome. I remember watching the build!
That was the first thing I saw you build! I love all your mini roads for your mini vehicles!
Glad to see the dump truck back! Probably my favorite build of yours, very impressive.
Glad you like it! Thanks 👍😊
Awesome seeing a new video Mike! You should consider hinging the tailgate on one side so you can latch it to the side rather than taking it off each time you want to dump.
The Articulating dump truck was one of the first builds I seen from you! Sooo glad to see it's still around, and even getting repairs and much deserved screen time! Awsome video as always Mike!
Great to the dump truck again. Always enjoy your videos, Mike. 👍
Nice to see the dumpster back
So cool seeing something you built doing exactly what it was built for…love that little truck, thanks for the upload dude..:)
Nice job Mike
Thanks Ants! 😊👍
@@Mikefestiva Great minds think alike
Great to see you.Good to hear you are doing okay.
Great help by the look of it certainly beats a wheel barrow and shovel, thanks for sharing, all the best to you and your loved ones
That little dump truck of yours is very maneuverable getting around the tight trails in your woods and climbing steep slopes with ease.
Definitely really useful around my property. 😊👍
Good to see the dump truck back in action, that was a great build!
Good to see this truck back in action, certainly is one of the stars of your channel.
Thanks man! I really appreciate it 😊👍
Thanks Mike. Loved the build series on the dump truck, glad to see her getting used again!
I love that little machine. I’d like to make one with 4 wheel steering instead of articulated. The equipment builds you did are my favorite watching you get creative and making something your own.
you should make a trailer fot the mini excavater behind the mini dumptruck would make a great video!
Love watching these videos. Small machines like yours are so practical in a dense forest. I do 80 % of my work on my homestead with my atv and many accessories I have custom made for it. But for winching huge maple trees, my good old Zetor with a farmi winch is what I need. Take care man !!
Finally it makes an appearance I remember watching the build on it very cool and well thought out
I'm still in love with dump truck! You can also reinforce shafts with pipe cut in half and "wrap" it.
It was a lazy idea I had, b/c properly welding sucks. Turns out, it works great.
Hey you're back! I'm a Subaru guy and they make lockers for that R160 rear end. Torq Locker. Seem them work well in Colorado off road trails!
Looking forward to more adventures.
so glad the dumper is back
Good to see it back in action. I remember watching you build this truck, couldn't wait for the next update.. It was the same with your Mini-Pinzgauer build.
Great video! Somehow made me feel productive! 😅 I need to get outside and tackle my chores now. Have a great weekend!
Mike, Good to see you bnack at it! Great calming video, nice music. Thank you for the relief from the chaos!
You're a good fabricator Mike. I could have used Rippa when I built my house in 1990.
Yes me too, I would have loved to have a mini like this 20 years ago, man it could have saved me a lot of hard work around my place, just wasn’t available or even remotely in my budget back then.
Thanks for checking out my new video!
We love Mikefestiva!!!
Thanks 😊
Enjoyed watching the dump truck work! That was the first series of yours I ever watched.
For some reason many of my subs notifications got put to "personalized" which apparently mean none. Good to see you are still doing stuff, i kinda forgot about you.
Yes YT doesn’t notify most of my subscribers anymore 👎
Thanks for checking out my new video!
Want that truck 😊 repairs are part of it 😊 love it!!!
Thanks Mike 😊👍
Talking of which, where is the pinzgauer
Sweet, you finally got it finished
Love seeing the 1-ton in action. I'm installing a cooling fan and hopefully back panel latches this weekend on my Rippa. I also just realized that the boom control stick has a thumb horn button on the top of it. Hoping to swap out the horn with a klaxon... aooooga!
Right on! Keep me posted on how your Rippa is holding up! I have about 19 trouble free hour on mine so far 👍
this was your best series
Oh yeah, mountain goat and rippa vid in one! Excellent stuff.
On the axles.. if they break again I would suggest taking them off the dumper and preheat them before TIG welding them. After welding wrap them in some rockwool/sheetrock and let them cool down slowly. Should hold a bit better. As always thanks for sharing. Greetings from the Netherlands, Mark
I love the build series for this little truck. It really inspired me.
Glad to see it back in action!
Thanks Mike!
Nice, I love the build series, great how well it still runs and perfect for the digger.
Man that is a useful little tractor. So good to see it back on the channel doing work.
Thanks for checking out my video! Yes it’s really nice to have it going again 😊👍
Hey man, love the often out of the box think and fabrication you do. Been watching since a little before the articulate build I believe. Glad to see it back in the vids
I have seen quite a few cool homemade vehicles on YT now, but your articulating dump truck is hands down the coolest one of them all. What an epic machine. So capable. I thoroughly enjoyed watching ever second of your build videos.
Nice to see that thing back in action! Definitely one of your coolest builds.
Thanks! I really appreciate it 😊👍
Mike, I love the dump truck, i have missed seeing it around the channel. That what brought me here but i stay for the awesome content. Keep up the good work.
Those two machines together are awesome! Good video and good work Mike 👍
Thanks Samuel 😊👍
outstanding vid love that truck its a beast the series is excellent watch!!!!
your dump truck is a master piece of work ,watched all of the older build videos first class,and your right about youtube not putting the videos front and center for your subscribers,hopefully they sort it out thanks for the videos
I've been thinking the same thing for 4 years now. Mike's content is top notch, I have to check my subs to find your videos. Middle of last year I stopped checking, and when I looked him up again there were 7-8 videos I hadn't seen....felt like I won the lottery........thanks Mike!!
Thank you 😊
Glad to see the dump truck back in action. I subscribed to this channel while you were you were building this
Great to see the dump truck again! It gives me the same excitement as building and playing with Lego vehicles did when I was a kid!
Thank you for sharing, always a pleasure follow your project , 👍👍👍👍
Thanks man! I really appreciate it 😊👍
Those two look like a great pair
I really enjoyed the build series on the dump truck. Hoping one day you will build a snow plow for it.
I'm pretty sure it was this or the mini pinz that made me subscribe.
I probably binged watch the playlists near the same time...
Stoked to see one of Your old builds puttin' in work again Mike, I wondered what happened to it.
I always loved that little dump truck, and was wondering why it didn't show in videos for a while. Glad to see it rolling again.
Thanks for checking out my channel again, seems YT doesn’t show most of my subscribers that I have new videos out, I’m still posting every other Friday. Same schedule for the past 5 years now. Take care 😊👍
That was a cool project. Glad to see it back to work.
I think you need to make a trailer to haul it around your property then you have a sweet little set up to do stuff with.
Nice, glad to see it running again. How about creating a bracket on the dump box to hold your tail gate when not in use?
Mike, Definitely one of my favorite build series any on all YT. Great to see it out working again and performing like nothing else is capable of. 👍👍😎👍👍
I'm in the earthmoving business. This is fantastic !😮
Right on! Thanks for checking out my new video 😊👍
It’s relaxing watching other people work 😂
Haha 🤣 👍
I have many similar interests to what you share on the channel. But my skills and budget aren’t at your level yet. I will get there! Thanks
Thanks for watching my new video Matt!
That thing looks like it would help a ton on my property. How many acres are you on? Its a beautiful property.
Thanks for checking out my channel 👍 I have 7.5 acres 😊
These mini Excavators are pretty useful little machines.
@@Mikefestiva I'm on almost 6 acres. I recently bought a Chinese mini excavator too, But I was talking about your dump truck. haha. I ended up buying the Typhon Terror XVIII. Its a great little machine.
So good to have you back making your great content
Mike, looks like ur homebuilt Dump Truck can go off road in the forest. looks cool..
Nice to see you. Great day!
That build was why I started watching your channel. Great to see it back i action!
Thanks for checking out my new video 👍
@mike festiva Thanks for great video
You might consider backing the articulated dump bed under the edge of the log splitter table, then the splitter will push the firewood into the bed directly
Best :-)
I watched you build that wow it’s been 4 years ago
Seems like last week, all the great content since then has been gravey!
Hello Mike thanks for another great video. Wonder if you would consider building a high lift hydraulic tailgate for the articulated dump truck. I think it would work great for you. With your fabrication skills it could be a good build to follow.
I watched the entire build back when it was being built. It's pretty awesome!
ive followed you from when you did welding tips on cheapish welders I'm in the centre of the uk well just off slightly East Midlands Leicester love you vids always have
I love your videos and enjoy them and your builts❤
nice pair.
Should build a trailer for your typically dump truck to haul your mini excavator around😊
I like this idea, a mini dump truck towing a mini excavator on a mini trailer.... that would make a great t shirt.
Mike! That build series was my favorite of all time. I love that machine you have built, so smart and handy of a design. Also got to see more of your property than i had previously. Nice f150 i just bought a new to me 97 f250 last of the square body. 9th generation with a lift gate on it. Cheers
One of my fav builds you did, that thing is a UNIT! Curious have you ever rolled it?
I was thinking i haven't seen any new content for awhile. Im glad this popped up. Gotta feed the algorithm so you come to my front page!
Thanks for checking on my channel, I still post every other Friday, YT just don’t seem to notify most of my subscribers anymore.
PS I should have a mini truck camping video out this coming Friday 😊👍
Sweet! I'll be looking for it.
I ran the Sol Duc highline Rd 2 weeks ago. That was a fun day. It's hardly a challenge, tho.
You guys find some nice trails on the west end.
Good job sir!
Been looking forward to seeing the truck in action!! Thanks for the videos!!
Thanks for checking out my new video! 😊👍
@@Mikefestiva thanks for keeping us updated!!
That thing is really cool!
