I installed the generator today, a Harrison 8kw hydraulic. I've also installed the cord reel at the rear. One of the engineers gave me an idea for a set of rollers on a hinged piece, so the cord doesn't drag if pulled sharply to one side of the truck. I'll have to look into it a bit more.
The Preliminary (in house) pump test is scheduled for April 30th

going together
It's going together very quickly, the engineering department did a great job of fitting everything in, and the body crew has been cutting, bending, and assembling over the last week.

in production
The new truck is in the shop! The past week has seen the interior stripped, the pump shift installed, the engineering finalized, and Tuesday the first parts came off the Laser.
It doesn't look like much yet, but next week should see a flurry of work as the body and pump gets assembled.
Due to some clearance issues, the decision was made to upgrade the large diameter discharges to electric valves, and a unique primer configuration that I'm betting will become a common sight on future trucks.
Pictures to come soon.
