I have a hell of a time keeping the key ways in place while I’m sliding pumps onto the shafts. Not easy to do since the pump/gearbox together weigh almost 50lbs. I can’t ever slide them on as easy as you just did. I’ve built 4 of these and will be building another in January.
Thanks!! As far as marketing, I use GMB, FB & Nextdoor. I also use yard signs which bring in a lot of action. But I get a bunch of work off of referrals.
Nice tip on the bump stop for pump support! I unboxed my predator just now, got 8.5 GP and gear reducer. What is the voltage regulator?? Do i need one?
Hey Brother I just got the same build as you and it’s beautiful. I have been looking for a answer to this question though. Now I have the Black igx 800 Honda and so do you . What’s the difference between the red and the black Honda machine? There has to be a reason.Thank You
Thanks to you I’m building the same motor/pump set up. I would like to know where you got your 1-1/2 to 3/4 hose barb from. Thank you and keep up the educational videos sir!
Awesome!! I got hose barb & hose from Pressure Washer Products. You can also check with Southside Eq. Thanks for watching and let me know if I can help with the build!
It is holding up very well. I would build the exact unit again & plan to in the future. You could jump to a 10 GPM pump if you have the supply to feed it. Thanks
It does come out cheaper building vs. buying one. But, since you have no experience with pressure washers, I would recommend buying the first one. Thanks
please help!!!! i have a 9gpm 1750rpm 3000 psi pump, using the predator 22hp v twin engine. in dont know what to use for my belts and pullys. not sure what the size needs to be of the two pullys. any ideas? i would greatly appreciate it thank you!
I have no idea what size pulleys. I would contact the pump manufacture and see what they recommend. You could also call Russ Johnson at Southside Equipment. Thanks
I have not considered the Vanguard engine. The model of my Udor pump is GKC 30/24R. I wanted to stick with Honda on this build, but may look a Kohler or Briggs in the future. Thanks
Great video! If you don't mind my asking, where were you able to find the IGX 800 available for purchase? I've been searching, but I've had trouble finding an online dealer.
Great video,,,, I know it's been a bit of time, but do you have a parts list ???? And where you got all of the parts ; the web sites and such ???? thank you....
I don't because I had to use multiple sources for the parts. the engine came from North Georgia Airless & the pump & stand came from Sprayer Depot. Thanks
Doesn't the Udor GKC (CKC) 30/24-GR Plunger Pump require two separate 3/4" suction side supplies? Mine came with a proper setup drawing showing two 3/4" lines running into a 3/4"×1"×3/4" tee and then 1" suction line running to storage tank.
@@allproexteriorservicesllc5338 when I spoke to udor they didn't say it was required, but did say it was recommended to use both of the inlets. I spoke to Randy when I called. I originally had planned on doing it exactly how you did, but since it's not much more work to run 2 separate supplies I think I'll go that route just to avoid starving the pump. My setup will be for drain jetting at 8gpm 3500psi. Thanks for video! You answered a lot of the questions I had about doing the setup/install.
The wire harness that comes from your regulator to the engine. Mine has a white/yellow wire and a black/yellow wire which match on both sides. Then two grey wires that are identical on the engine side and two grey wires one with a black dot on the regulator harness. Does it matter which of the grey ones you connect? Mine also has the black ground wire which I know where it goes. Finally it has a white and blue striped wire that is capped off. Not sure what it is for? Any insight on the two grey wires and the blue/white wire would be greatly appreciated.
@Sundown798 to be honest I bolted my pump to the engine and put it in my enclosed trailer and it's just been sitting there for almost a year. I've never attempted started it or finished my install. I'm actually considering selling it. My business went in another direction and I really don't have a use for it now. Sorry I couldn't be of more help. With the white / blue wire I believe it was for if you wanted additional accessories or to have your engine recharge the battery. Something along those lines, but I never verified because I never used it.
Just what I have in the video. All I did was set the engine on the skid & mark the mounting holes to drill. I also double checked the measurements before drilling. Maybe you can use a piece of cardboard as template. Thanks
Where did you buy your muffler from? I'm having a difficult time finding the genuine Honda muffler and the places I see have it want like $550-600 for the kit.
@@johnthe_don The main reason was the size. The gear drive takes up a smaller foot print on my trailer. Now that I have a gear drive, I really like the simplicity of the unit versus a belt drive. Nothing wrong with a belt drive, just a preference.

@@allproexteriorservicesllc5338 how much did this build cost you approximately. Online prebuilt they are like $4,400 with shipping. I think your answer may have been about a mixing valve or something.
Because it would spin too fast. The gearbox reduces the speed the pump will turn giving it a longer life & the ability to create a suction for water. Thanks

That looks great!
Thanks!
Looks fantastic
Thanks!!
Good idea to support the pump. Replace the threaded rod with a carriage bolt. Should never have to worry about rubbing the bottom of the pump.
Great Idea!! Thanks
Awesome video👍 so much info, subscribed, thanks man, hope to do this in the future!✌
Thanks!!!
looks awesome!

Thats the machine I want, I'm jealous and I'm happy for you at the same time...

Nice tip on the bump stop for pump support! I unboxed my predator just now, got 8.5 GP and gear reducer. What is the voltage regulator?? Do i need one?
Not sure about the predator. The voltage regulator charges the battery & will run a hot box if I decide to get one. Thanks!!
I don't have one on my pred. runs good and keeps the battery charges.
Get excited....
Yes Sir!!
Did you buy both engine and pump from the same supplier? I’m getting the same engine, but I’m looking into getting the pump. Any suggestions
I purchased the pump from Sprayer Depot & the engine from North Georgia Airless. Thanks
How’s it do sucking water since it’s not belt driven… always here it’s not best using direct drive when needing to pull water from a tank.
Direct drive & Gear drive not the same. Gear drive is reduced with the gear box. Thanks

I got the skid from Sprayer Depot. I welded the mounting tabs myself, but they can do that is well. Thanks
Where did you get the pump support bracket? Mine has nothing under it and I’m worried that it will sag overtime
