The telescopic lift provides a steeper dump angle and more ground clearance underneath, making it the preferred choice for sticky materials like wet dirt, clay, and gravel that need a steeper bed angle to fully clear.

Griffin offers two hydraulic lift systems on the 7x14. Choosing between them depends on what you haul and how you work. Dual Ram Lift (Econo & Standard configurations) — Two hydraulic cylinders mounted under the bed lift in tandem. The dual ram system is power up and power down, giving you full control over descent speed. That matters when you need to stop mid-dump, feather a partial load, or carefully lower equipment onto the bed. The two-point lift spreads force evenly for stable, predictable operation. Dual ram is the industry standard for general-purpose hauling — dirt, gravel, mulch, firewood, and debris. Telescopic Lift (Standard + Telescopic & 16K Heavy Duty configurations) — A single multi-stage cylinder mounted at the front pushes the bed to a full 45-degree dump angle — significantly steeper than dual ram. The steeper angle means sticky materials like wet clay, compacted dirt, and heavy gravel clear the bed completely instead of clinging to the floor. The front-mounted position puts 100% of the payload behind the lifting point, delivering more direct lifting force with less stress on the trailer frame. Telescopic is power up, gravity down — the bed lowers under its own weight, which means faster cycle times and more dumps per battery charge. This is the same lift technology used on commercial semi-end dump trailers and heavy-duty dump trucks. Quick comparison: Feature Dual Ram Telescopic Dump Angle Standard (~35°) Full 45° Lowering Power down (controlled) Gravity down (faster) Partial Dumps Yes — stop anywhere Limited control Sticky Materials May require raking Clears completely Frame Stress Moderate Lower Dumps per Charge Good More (gravity down) Best For General hauling, equipment loading Heavy materials, high-volume dumping Why Choose a Griffin Dump Trailer?
