I think they are called a manifold. Brodex sell the, but they are pretty pricey. There was a guy on here a while ago that made them, I think he was asking £20-£30 for one.

why dont you put the ports at the back underside of the van (saves cutting a hole in the side of the van  :o) also will be less of a trip hazard

purefreedom.co.uk do these for about £20ish

Sorry Roy i meant with [hoses to reel attatched] just trying to imagine what they would look like dangling from side of van.Reason im asking is,would i get a better flow of water from the pumps if i lifted the outlets higher.At the minute ive got my ports on the rear bumper,but the pumps are obviously placed higher in the van?

Why would you need higher ports to pump water ?, I used to have back ports under van bumber and pumps higher doing 5 floor work 100 meters of hose fully out 2 man and no problems at all.
