Abstract

A dump truck is provided with a mooring device for maintaining a dump body of the truck in a raised position when the truck is being serviced. The mooring device utilizes two tension members or cables and includes a load distribution mechanism so as to prevent one of the tension members from carrying a substantially greater tensile load than the other member.
