Example grain carts have movable doors to provide access to an interior cavity. Grain carts may have more than one door, and the one or more doors are movable between an open position to expose one or more openings and a closed position to conceal one or more openings formed in one or more sides of a bin of the grain cart.

A cargo bed extension assembly includes a tailgate structured to be movable between a raised configuration and a lowered configuration. The tailgate includes a cavity formed therein. An extension mechanism is positioned within in the cavity. The extension mechanism includes an extension member coupled to the tailgate so as to be movable between a stowed configuration and an extended configuration, and so as to enable rotation of the extension member from the extended configuration to a raised configuration. The mechanism also includes a cover portion coupled to the extension member so as to be movable between a stowed configuration and a deployed configuration in which the cover portion covers at least a portion of the bed.

The present invention relates to an apparatus and methods of removing material from the bed of a truck, for example, the bed of a pick-up track, The apparatus is an unloader apparatus the has both a bed part and an external part, the bed part designed to be used in the bed of the pick-up truck and the external part designed to be used to move the bed part. The bed part is substantially flat and the external part usually consists of lines that can be moved by means of a force provided by a winch, a moving truck or by some other means.

A cargo bed for a utility terrain vehicle (UTV) having a floor, a tailgate, and a pair of sidewalls. The cargo bed is operable to convert from a walled configuration into a wall-stored configuration while at least one of the tailgate and the pair of sidewalls remain mechanically-connected to the floor.

An endgate striker assembly engageable with an endgate latch, wherein the endgate striker assembly has a striker and an overmolded-annular shoulder. The striker has an attachment portion at one end, a head at the opposite end and a cylindrical shaft between the attachment portion and the head. The overmolded-annular shoulder is between the cylindrical shaft and the attachment portion. The overmolded-annular shoulder has an annular damper and an annular shoulder. The annular damper is molded over the surface of the annular shoulder facing the cylindrical shaft and at least part of the outer circumferential surface of the annular shoulder.
