How do you bypass trailer valve on ford semi to make dump truck?

There's no need to - just don't push in the trailer supply valve. If you want to plug the trailer supply lines, you can. You should probably worry more about getting used to that thing leaning over around even the slightest curve once you put the dump body on, since you won't have the Camelback, Chalmers, or walking beam suspension a true dump truck would have.


If one wanted to buy a used dump truck where would be the best places to look for sale prices?

Truck dealerships, the Truck Paper website. Careful what you buy - a lot of so-called dump trucks are just road tractors with a dump body slapped on.. they don't have the heavier duty axles, they have air ride suspensions (rather than the chalmers, camel back, or Hendrickson walking beam suspension like a vocational truck should have), they don't have the double frame, they're geared too high for sitework use which takes you off the road, etc.
