    Brush truck water capacity?

    The more info the better! I really agree that 1 1200 gallon is way unsafe; it’s just too much in one tank. Since I already have the current skid mounted tank, maybe by adding two additional smaller tanks side by side in the front of the bed (on behind the driver, one behind the passenger) the...

    Brush truck water capacity?

    Thanks for all the info. These trucks were defiantly under rated because you never know what some 18 year old will do to a free truck that isn't his, but following these rating AND using a little discretion will make these last a long time. I'm thinking that if it is rated to safely carry...

    Brush truck water capacity?

    I know, I remembered you posting the pics so I looked it up for the link. Sweet setup! I'm not really surprised 395's outperform them, you do lose the extra spares and can't just drive on a flat, but get more road speed and bigger lugs offroad. Both beat the heck out of the NDT's. My deuce...

    Brush truck water capacity?

    I am looking at building an off-road (i.e. forests) spray truck for tree spraying. I've seen thread in the past about brush-fire trucks, but can't seem to find what I need. Although a 5 ton would certainly hold more water, I think the added curb weight would just lead to traction problems and...
