The good single cylinder dumps use a scissor looking setup. That creates a mechanical advantage. I haven't had any issues with mine not being able to dump a heavy load.
One of the issues with the two cylinder dumps is they mount the cylinders by the outside of the box. If a cylinder or hose fails it can cause the trailer to twist. Thats why semi dumps have their cylinders mounted in the center.
