If I am not mistaken, the 72 "R" models came with a booster reel mounted above the pump. the 73's had 1.5" preconnects over the pump and the booster reel mounted in a sump at the rear tailboard.
Shoop, my scanner was acting up the last time it was used. I am going to do my best. I guess this gives me a reason to buy a new one.
