Undertailgate Spreaders

Overview

The Smith Under Tailgate Series of Spreaders are designed for low-maintenance high torque drive. Built with in a 96” length, easily installed on your Dump Body or Truck. This gives you the best of both worlds, allowing you to retain the use of the truck without removing the spreader. Just put the lid up to use as ice control and put the lid down for full use of the truck. The variety of choices is a key ingredient with this design, Hydraulic Direct Drive, Gear Box Drive, Chain Drive, or Electric.  Using our consistent 304 Stainless-Steel construction, durability is never the issue.
