We needed a cheap new water truck, something that will stand out, something that will turn heads, most of all something Coby can climb in.

You all did a great job of redesigning the truck bed for your water truck. You folks are amazing at building and redoing equipment. The truck bed turned out great. Nice work Welkers!!!!!!! Always did like those Freight Liners!!!!! Good old trucks to do the job. There you go Bob, nice new truck rebuilt for your water carrier. Thanks for everything Welkers. Enjoyed watching you redo this truck. You all take care and be safe. May god watch over you all. The Iowa farm boy. Steve. 😊😊👍🙏🇺🇸

My experience with the 3126, you won't have to worry about to much power! I used to build grain trucks for farmers and I loved the FL freightliner. Plenty of room under the cab to run linkage for the dump valve instead of cable that seize up and need replaced every 2 years! Some guys will tell you that you can't make a 10 wheeler with a FL70, but we built several of them. Even put a air tag on one to make a trip axle. Just all around nice trucks!

So don't throw them out! Plus spray Rhino liner on the frame for rust protection, would be a good option too.

Condenser actually, condenses the hot gas back into a liquid before going back to the pump. The evaporator is under the dash because it evaporates the high pressure liquid into a gas and absorbs heat making the cab cooler.

Could you take the low profile tires off and put larger tires on those rims to give you more clearance.I'm sure you have extra tires around that might not be road worthy but would still be good enough for around the farm.What would determine that would be if there is enough clearance between the bed and the larger tires.

When these wear out we might look into that. Would be nice to have a few more inches of clearance under it.
