I got tired of coiling up our stiff white water hose so I bought a Plastair 25' coiled hose and I wanted to store it on the rear bumper near the fresh water tank for easy access. I bought a piece of 4" pipe and cut it to length and glued a plug into 1 end. I then taped it to the rear bumper with metal tape as a temporary mount. I used a expandable clean out plug for the other end and cross drilled the bolt for a latch pin to keep it in place.

I did a 6" pipe under the SQ bumper. I attached mine with large hose clamps. Between the regular bumper and the 6" pipe I keep all my black water supplies in the bumpers.
 
Very impressive!

I too am one of those "outside the box" thinkers and doers.

I also enjoy anything that will save time in the future. More time for living!

 
Since you obvisly not screwing the ends together, what are you using to plug the ends of the hose to keep kritters out.
 
cavie for the hose ends I will simply buy garden hose caps, but since the tube is sealed on one end and the other has a removable plug as long as I keep it closed up no critters should be able to get in.

that will do it. My bumper caps have a 1" square hole in them. That's why I asked.
 
My bumper stores my sewer hose, my fresh water hose is coiled in a bucket with lid.

In fact the bucket holds two twenty five foot hoses.
 
A place for everything, and everything in its place. Storage bins for water and sewer hoses, another for electrical.

Everything needed for set up, together in one compartment. Step chocks and grill stand are directly behind the bins.
