Middlesex County, Ontario
You can cage a maxi. You just slip a bolt with a special T head into the pod, turn it 90 degrees, tighten a nut onto it and it will release the spring. Sometimes the pod has the cage bolt stored on the side of it somewhere. I don't think they'd be more than $5/piece at a truck place.

Your tractor probably holds about 15 gallons of hydraulic oil. End dump ram probably holds 40 gallons of oil. A wet kit on a semi usually has a 50 gallon tank. End dump ram will also only be rated to 1800 psi or so. I think you are going to need a pto pump with a separate reservoir.

I`d build the pump and reservoir onto the dolly so you have a dolly with a wet kit that you can use on any end dump or walking floor or whatever.
