A while back I bought a 777 Vortex box and I am rebuilding it my way. We mounted this box on a FUSO frame. I bought a TCS Chief II Diesel machine and diesel heater. I will be use the 280 gallon fresh water tank and the twin 120 gallon holding tanks from the Vortex. In the waste tank we mounted a 110 volt 1/2 HP sump pump to pump waste water out at a large water loss. Yes I like projects. We have a large fleet I just like making good things better.

HERE IS THE QUESTION.
The Vortex had an electric vac hose reel, which I would like to use. This reel is chain driven, like a bike chain. What I am looking for is any info on what kind of motor ran this reel. Does any one have a reel like this? I own three other Vortex units but done like this one.

That looks like what I have. Could you send me more info on the motor, model # and so on. Maybe a pic will do.

awesome Al, when you figure out your schedule for the 28th -30th let me know and we'll try and make it work.


Will this tour be wife friendly or should we send them shopping?
