Pallet on transmat on bed so not much weight on tailgate. Then tied down to bed anchors.
I really like that pallet!

I had a SnugTop shell on my F250 (came with truck) for four or five years, but it acted like a vacuum cleaner sucking up road dust, and got in the way of my accessing the JohnDow fuel tank in the bed so I sold it. I'm not able to pull a gooseneck trailer at present since I have a Decked drawer system in the bed. I don't know if anyone makes a drawer system that could replace the rear seat in the cab but I'd consider it along with removing the Decked system and adding a receiver for a gooseneck.

It's either that or buying another truck! 😂 Obtaining the "perfect" set up for just about anything is always a challenge with lots of incrementalism along the way.

There's not really enough to go on. That looks like the pumping end could be similar to this.

I bought one of these to pump tractor fluid when I changed it. It worked like a champ for that, but a year later when I tried to use it for motor oil, it wouldn't work. I threw $10 at another one which never worked. These have a rubber vane spider that are intended for water, oil probably softened it and destroyed it.

It's possible that Temu pump is different, but they don't give much information and your recourse is weak.

A rotary barrel pump is faster and more reliable than those cheap one-use drill pumps that leak and fall apart in your hands. Speaking from my experiences.
