Sure it is feasable to build one but they are not as simple as they seem. Below is a drawing I jacked from the internet. They need two pivot points A and B and for it to be able to pivot on B for dumping the two sections have to be able to interlock in the area of pivot A. Galbreath uses a linkage and Stellar uses a sliding lock. Also they typically need higher operating pressures than a typical rolloff to operate. The hook gantry can either tilt or telescope. I just put a load cell system on a Stellar a while back I'll check if I have any pics of the interlock.
