True
Hydraulic pressure causes a sectional cylinder to expand, and this raises the front of the dump body. Gravity pulls the material out of the dump body.
Dump trucks are equipped with a hydraulic piston that raises and lowers the bed. The beds of dump trucks are controlled by a hydraulic pump. There's a good video about the process on YouTube.
The chains on tires reates traction, because it breaks the ice.
The surplus center.com manufactures, sells and installs hydraulic cylinders for car transport trucks. You can go to a mechanic shop and they will have them replaced.

While 8 cylinder trucks bring more horsepower and durability, 6 cyclinder diesel wins hands down. Diesel trucks are more fuel efficient, and with diesel mpgs run circles around standard gas trucks. so if i were you id go 6 cylinder diesel
They can be used in a lot of ways in a car. Brakes are hydraulic in modern cars. Also, lifting and lowering hardware found in heavy duty work trucks are also operated by use of hydraulic cylinders.
