Abstract
A safety support and stop assembly for securing a dump body pivotally mounted on a truck chassis frame in an elevated position above the chassis frame so as to permit a mechanic to work safely on components of the truck while the dump bed is in the elevated position. The safety support and stop assembly comprises an upright support member, a cradle support assembly and a base assembly. The upright support member is characterized as having an upper bed engaging support end and a lower pivot end. The lower pivot end is pivotally connected to the cradle support assembly such that the upright support member is disposed in a selectable angular disposition relative to the truck chassis frame. The base assembly, which is removably supported on the truck chassis frame, supports the cradle assembly at a preselected position along the truck chassis frame.
