Very good job of stuffing everything in there

Sorry to always have a question, but ...
I don't see a union anywhere for you to service your return pump
How will you take it out without unscrewing it from that coupler ?

haha no problems at all!! i knew the pump was temporary so i used a 1/2" slip fitting on the end of the flex pipe so it just slides on to the pump you just have to pull the pump off the flex line

I know right, someone should be out there watching what these posts and ditches are doing, they have been getting away with these shenanigans for far to long now

Yeah im fine, the worst part is it happened slow enough that i said to myself "come on miss it, miss it!!" then i hear a pop and look over my shoulder to see my tinted window explode and light and snow come rushing in. Then i looked forward while still sliding into the ditch and i remember saying "well there goes my tank money"
