have any of you tried (or seen) a setup using a tractor chipper welded/mounted to a dump trailer or dump truck?

here's a photo of the chipper:

imagine it being welded to the front lip of a dump trailer. seems like it could be a very efficient setup because you can then travel around with a truck + chipper + dump + stump grinder (hauled inside trailer)

but here's the thing...i can't find that dumpbox combo anywhere used. and with a chipper that large, you may as well get a chipper truck.
so i'm thinking to keep prices really low, use a dump trailer + tractor chipper. the reason behind this is because 80% of a tree could be used by the 6" tractor chipper.
 
you could have pulled that fallen tree over with the tractor and chipped,your definently on to something here keep us posted.
 
Why not a hydralic chipper and a mini skidsteer? A lot easier to hook up more versatility than a tractor and smaller to haul around?
