Does this dump truck with electric over hydrolic need two batteries to operate dump bed efficiently?

This is a gas truck. I have no problems unless I lift the hoist. There is one battery in it, but space for two.

Then put the other one in it may have wires going to it like 10-12 gauge you'need the extra power for it otherwise your other battery will be short lived.
