Hello Jonathon,

Yes, the Stillwell Single 10K Dump Trailer Conversion Kit # ST84VR will work great with your existing hydraulic dump system on your Big Tex trailer, whether it's a 6K or 7K model. This kit is designed to connect directly to the hydraulic pump that's already running your dump bed, so there's no need to install a separate power unit just for the jack. It's a pretty clever setup that lets both the jack and the bed run off the same system.

The kit includes everything you’ll need to make the integration smooth: a 6-port hydraulic ball valve, two 60" neXflex hydraulic hoses, a 12" hose, and the right fittings and adapters. It’s made to work with both single-acting and double-acting hydraulic systems, so you're covered either way.

What are you hauling in your dump trailer?
