In case you don't have one and wonder how it will look on the truck:

I also carry an extra OEM drain plug in the tool box just in case....

I like the design principle but that drain hole looks pretty small. I have a drain extension on one of my old skid steers that has an orifice about half the size as the original drain plug and it takes twice as long to drain. Though for this machine it's a matter of access convenience versus speed.

Personally, though I like the concept of the LMC unit, I prefer to stick with the Fumoto valve because even if the spring failed, you can mechanically put the valve in the correct position and securely lock it there with the wire hose clamp. In other words, I can make it continue to work even if the spring fails, but the LMC unit does not offer that "backup operation" capability.
