    anyone ever done? what type did you install. and what's the cost? and added weight?

    i'm thinking of installing a pump of some type to my truck to pump rail cars into the tank instead of packing around a pump on the catwalk.

    it's too heavy and there usually isn't two guys to help.

    Ranger pump. 100,000 ways to mount, PTO driven. They are a copy of the old Roper pump.

    I used to run a three inch roper, for pumping asphalt and other petroleum products. It ran off of the PTO and I had it mounted to the frame. Before you buy a pump you need to know exactly what you are going to be pumping with it so that you can get a pump that is compatible with the products that you are going to be pumping.
