Brush 76-0 was equipped with a 6" lift kit and off-road wheels and tires by Grays Service Center in Frankford, DE. Shore Emergency Equipment in Gumboro, DE outfitted the unit with a 20HP Honda Motor, HPX-200 Hale pump with a Hale Proportional Foam System, 200 gallon poly tank, 12 gallon Class A foam tank, stainless steel plumbing and control panel, Akron valves, 150 foot hose reel with Niedner fire hose, telescopic scene lights, and ground sweeps mounted in the front undercarriage.

Future plans include the addition of a front brush bumper and winch assembly, rear step bumper, and an additional dry hose reel for forestry line.
