E-Scout-SB
Hydraulic Dump Insert System for Short-Box Pickups: Modular, Powerful, and Built to Endure.
The Rival E-Scout-SB is the ultimate modular dump-insert platform for 6.5-foot trucks, available in five specialized configurations ranging from the base insert to the full Pauldron package with side cabinets. Every E-Scout-SB integrates a 3-ton hydraulic scissor hoist, a chainless cantilever tailgate, and a self-aligning sub-frame for simplified installation. Whether you’re hauling soil, chips, or gear, the E-Scout-SB transforms your pickup into a professional-grade dumper that’s faster, cleaner, and stronger than traditional bed systems; without losing the everyday driveability of your truck.

The Workhorse Within.
At the heart of every E-Scout-SB lies a 3-ton hydraulic scissor hoist mounted to a self-aligning steel sub-frame, paired with a double-acting KTI power pack and remote control for quick, effortless dumping. The modular design lets you tailor the insert to your trade: from the base model with tub and tailgate, to the bulkhead + side-board variant, the Chipper canopy editions for arborists, or the full Pauldron setup with integrated side cabinets for tools and gear. Each model shares the same DNA: marine-grade aluminum panels, reinforced structure, and a closed-gap tailgate that looks factory when down, yet seals tight when loaded.
Because it installs directly into your existing bed, the E-Scout-SB makes any ¾-ton or one-ton truck a true multi-role asset. Use it as a dumper, a hauler, or a mobile toolbox system, and remove or upgrade modules as your business evolves. The short-box format ensures a perfect balance between capacity and maneuverability: ideal for city lots, driveways, or tight forestry access. The E-Scout’s strength isn’t just in its hydraulics: it’s in the adaptability that keeps your truck earning, year after year.

Important Notice Regarding WEIGHT CAPACITY
PLEASE Note: You must limit actual load by your TRUCK Payload; not just using the capacity above. In almost every scenario, the e-scout is capable of lifting MORE than your pick-up, but that does not enable it to do it as the truck would fail. Truck Rating supercedes E-Scout Rating; Go with the lower of the two.
