    SEE hose reel swivels

    Getting at least one of them off would be nice, since there may be a manufacturer logo or part number on it. I didn't try with completely locking the reel in place, so that's still an option I should try. It'd be interesting to compare the internals, I think. With any luck the swivels are from...

    SEE hose reel swivels

    Other than the NPT on the reel end, the swivels I looked at were all different. So far I've only plugged the hoses and yesterday I parked the (formerly) leaky one in the garage. Now I can disassemble one swivel and see what's in there. They won't come off without a fight, which is why...

    Perfect timing, P&P! I bought plugs for my hoses (-8 JIC if memory serves me) and installed them two days ago, so that I could dig into the swivels. In my case, not only do the swivels leak, but on this particular FLU (the only one that leaks, of course) there's no way to turn the PTO off, so...
