JFong,
Thanks for those pics. Looks like some of the left coast folks might still be using 3 1/2".

WFDT42,
Thanks for the shots. I curious as to why the 4" along with the 5"?

Do you have to raise the cover to pull the two left most pre-connects?
Hose beds/loads - rob.leahyjr - 02-04-2008
The bar does not move. The red line is the first line to be pulled. Then the blue line. We did a couple of pulls on them and they come right out with little or no problem. Once when you get the loop out, its very easy.

The reason behind carrying both is because other departments we run mutual aid with uses 4" but we use 5"

[quote name='npfd801' post='186378' date='Feb 3 2008, 16:59 ']Good point, though I worry that our desire to carry more water (750 at least, we prefer 1000) and keep the rig at a reasonable length while still having decent compartment depth, well - you can't have it all right?
I'm pretty sure that General Safety rear mount you just posted went out to New Jersey somewhere. I think they have twins.[/quote]
It has 850gal of tankage, 750 water and 100 foam.

You could do the same thing with 4" to 5" stortz fittings and you could just carry all 5" supply line.
