Just got some 22mm brass pipe couplers and put them over the bottom of the hose reel drilled into the bottom of the van. Really sturdy and means you can reel the hose in fast and not faffing about getting the hose in and out of the van and it falling over

Attached mine to a large piece of worktop cutoff.  Solid enough in use, but still OK to get out of the van if I need to.

I will be putting mine onto a piece if board and placing one of the hozelock rollors in front of it as apparently stops the hose snagging
