The truck also retain some water distribution features, but much of these have also been altered for Bush Fire use.

The hose reel on the top is a BFB addition, although the rollers for a hose appear original. The original PTO driven pump is missing, replaced with a Briggs and Stratton powered portable unit. Also the filters and valves in the rear cabinet are gone, used instead for hose storage. There is also a distribution pipe located across the rear crossmember with several taps that looks to be original, but the taps themselves could be BFB, or maybe they were a standard Australian plumbing pattern of the time?

The tank body (and presumably much of the associated plumbing) is made by Engineering Products Pty Ltd of Burnley Victoria.
