Running what I brung and taking what I win
Swivel on the end of the hose by the nozzle

I have one at the filter and one at the nozzle. Got tired of replacing hoses. Tractor Supply has them for around $30 for 3/4" and 1". Good investment considering what a new hose costs.

I carry 20' of hose so 99% of the time I don't use all of it and leave some tucked between the tank and toolbox. I thought about a swivel right off the pump as well but it wouldn't do me any good most of the time.

I know this thread is old but to clear up the hazmat rules, it is calculated based on weight. Over 1,001lbs of a flammable liquid requires placards and at least a class c license with a hazmat endorsement. The fuel tank used to power the vehicle is not included in this calculation.

Since this got bumped up here's a few pics of my work truck.

L tank with a 15gal per minute FillRite pump. Swivel on the end of the hose by the nozzle. Standard size weatherguard. I used to have an extra width weatherguard but it made for very little clearance pulling my gooseneck flatbed.
BackRack has a 22" Federal Signal Mini Legend in all amber. 2 white light heads point out the rear under the bar and 1 point out each side. There is also amber led hide-a-ways in the turn signals and back up lights.

Edit. I'm not sure why they don't show up like normal. They're linked as img tags.

Edit2. I don't know what I'm doing.


Nice Setup!

I will get some better pictures tomorrow. I have a Protech cab shield and toolbox (very well built), 104 gallon tank with a 20gpm pump and spin on filter. I have a #10 wire going to the reverse lights and use the factory reverse circuit to control a relay that's behind the driver side taillights housing. Reverse lights are twice as bright and have LED's also under the bumper. I also ran an override switch into the cab for hooking up trailers at night. The box, tank and rack have been in the truck since it was new.
