As always, awesome pix, whats the deal with the 3" hose on the front bumper on E-36? Dont see a front intake or discharge.

SFD Probie can confirm, but my understanding is that its up to the individual company to do what they want with their bumpers. My guess is around 1/3 of the Engines have line on the front with no connections to the rig. The majority are laid out like E36, but if you look at Page 26 of this thread you can see some different ways. In addition to the pumpers, Tower 1 and I think Truck 8 also carry extra line on their bumpers for high rise ops.
