On CMP's, the the installation of the the PTO pump involved nothing more than drilling a hole in the floor to insert a screwdriver to engage the pump, and fitting the pump to the transmission. A copper pipe ran from the pump to the air fitting, which was screwed through an existing hole in the frame. An experienced Driver/Mechanic could probably fit it in 15 minutes.

On the MCP, I can't believe there was anything as fancy or elaborate as modified body panels, knockouts or flaps. Too much work. The simplicity of Canadian vehicles was their forte.

I think we've been staring at the fitting all along and not wanted to see it, expecting something sexier than just an exposed fitting, but there it is.
