Cab-forward truck bed mounted material spreader
The subject invention provides an improved material spreader assembly for mounting in a truck bed of a vehicle. A hopper carrying a material to be dispersed is supported in the truck bed. An auger is disposed within the hopper to convey the material towards an outlet. A spinner assembly is longitudinally spaced from the outlet of the hopper. An extension assembly extends between the outlet of the hopper and the spinner assembly conveying the material therebetween. This allows for a cab-forward placement of the hopper and frame thereby moving the weight of the filled hopper and the frame forward towards the front of the vehicle resulting in improved weight distribution.
