IIRC a standard Oster blender will accept a 1/4" ratchet drive. All you need is a reducer for your impact wrench and a blender pitcher from the thrift store.

Indeed it will, and Ashfaq has already demonstrated the concept in Death Valley. He ran the blender with a die grinder!

It was a butterfly impact for that "super high" RPM ice crushing speed actually

If you look at the photo with the red checkered dish cloth, in the storage aria in the back is the inlet for the H2O. Here are some shots of the water hose from the truck and the inlet on the outside back of the unit.

Thanks for all the comments guys.
Mind sharing more about the onboard water pump? Sounds sweet!

Kitchen looks great

Rob, sorry for the delay. Pump is a FloJet from an RV camper supply. It pushes 1.5 gal/hr and is an on demand set up. When water pressure drops ( shower on) the pump goes on and when pressure is up ( shower off) the pump shuts off. It is self priming and will suck water from a ground level (four feet) container if primed properly although the printed instructions mentioned having teh pump at or below the water tank. I had the pump mounted upside down the first time I started it and it was sucking instead of pumping so I figure it will lift water a little bit. It runs pretty quiet and is built pretty well for what I'm going to use it for.

Here is a link to a very similar pump. This one says 1.1 gal/min the data sheet on mine says 1.5.
