Gearing Up

[Sharpe]

I only got a big one cuz it was 400 dollars cheaper than a good 150 gallon tank

Be super careful when taking a hard right turn. That unloader hose might have a ton of force on it not to mention if it rubs could be a nightmare for the tailgate.

[Sharpe]

O it’s just hanging there…I have to put it somewhere else…along with the gas tank and 35 gallon tank so I can fit my sh drum

[AquaTeamPowerWash]

Damn I have 100gallon and only fill to 40 gallons but am also running 4gpm machine.

[Sharpe]

I figure if I need more I can unhook the Hudson so it’s there if I need it…but I don’t really wana run with any water truthfully

[Sharpe]

Also I’m hoping to toss a shiny new 8 gpm machine on there early July. So I’ll be all set with minimum effort.

If you want some more space on the front I had every intention building a rack with back leg supports that set my skid up on the front rail as well as holding the gas tank and battery off to the right. I’ll find the sketch if you’re interested.

Basically two big beefing L’s with square tub and a brace across the back with a tray to the right for battery and bigger gas tank.

[Sharpe]

Sure if you run across it. I wouldn’t mind the machine being raised. I’m a little worried about that exhaust heating up. It was too cold here today to run anything and check out how bad my plumbing skills are. I have high hopes for tomorrow though.

Here is my residential rig,fixing to add a 12 volt system on it

[Sharpe]

Clean!

[Racer]

I predict you’re going to need a bigger trailer before summer is over, lol.

[DoubleH]

i remember this rig, is this a current pic? where do you keep your wands, surface cleaner and ladder?

that looks so clean and neat, what does the inside of the tool box look like?

[squidskc]

Just go up… I think I heard that in a video once.

This trailer is a year and a half old,it’s done over 350 house washes.Wands,ladder,and surface cleaner are put in the bed of my truck.Im planning on having a flatbed or box truck in the next few months.I also have a skid I build for roof cleaning.It has 2 50 gal tanks,hose reel with 200 ft of 1/2 hose and 2 12 volt pumps.You just don’t need a 20-30 foot trailer with 25 valves to twist and turn to do what we do.I try to keep it simple as possible,that way there’s less to break or tear up.i will get you some pictures of inside the toolbox.We carry 1 gal of eliminator,1 gal f13,1 gal of onerestore,Extra guns,tips,extra unloader,extra Hudson valve,spark plugs,oil,chemical injectors,hand tools(wrenches and screw drivers),rags,gloves,and 2 of every fitting that is plumped on the machine and reels.

[DoubleH]

That’s awesome, looks great

I try not to make mine look trashy but there’s so much stuff, hopefully it’ll be more neat once i transfer everything to my van

[Sharpe]

This trailers got more leaks than the titanic! Only one that baffles me… its seems my machine has a filter between the inlet and the actual threaded peice for the hose to connect. It seems very loose and wiggles around…is that common…cuz its leaking a lot…solutions?

[Innocentbystander]

Pull it out and throw it away

[SPC]

pulled mine out replaced with regular rubber gasket and if ur using a plastic fitting like this u will have to tighten more than hand tight.

[Sharpe]

I just wanted to see someone else say it!!!

[Innocentbystander]

Lol. PS don’t put plastic fittings in your pump
