Very nice setup. I totally agree, it is worth the investment for someone (like me) that finds cleaning and detailing very therapeutic. I started small as well. Karcher 1800 cube and a hose . Slowly upgraded feed hoses, quick disconnects, cheap DI rig with bypass, nice Foam canons, stubby nozzle, etc. Just in the last couple of weeks invested in an Active 2.0 and a shelf, hose reel, added a dedicated outlet. Still needing a nice DI rig and a dedicated hose bib to feed it. But its coming right along.
Thanks brother. That's awesome, sounds like we had a very similar path. It's crazy how once you get it all into place, the old way of setting up and tearing down seems insane. Good luck on the rest of your build! I'm still considering some bottle shelving and a wall mount for the foam cannons to finish it all up.
Definitely worth the money. My setup was 3 years in the making cause I gradually up graded. I started with the karcher k1700 then bought the og ultimate accessory package. 2 years later bought the shelf and hose reel. Last week purchased the active 2.0 kit for 20% off. The cox hose reel is the best part of the setup case trying to coil up a 75ft hose was the worst part of washing my car.
Yep very similar here.. K1800, small upgrades to that, etc. And 100% agree on the hose reel; it's definitely the one functional thing that makes this so much easier now.
@@AlwaysSummerGarage I didn't want to spend the money on the cox reel cause I didn't think it was worth the price. But soon as I got it I was impressed by the quality.
The only comment I can think of is … IF detailing is therapeutic, enjoyable, relaxing, whatever else then cost shouldn’t be a factor. Whatever makes the experience better is an investment in yourself. No need to justify it more than that. 😊😊😊
Great setup! I’ve been binge watching you vids! Question: what is the width dimension of it at the widest point? That is from the hose bucket filler all the way to the left.
Thanks so much brother, much appreciated! From the bucket fill elbow across to the tee on the left is exactly 36 inches. Tack on a few extra inches for the water inlet hose connected to the pressure washer because of how it bends outward.
Great Vid, I'm getting ready to build my first system. I'm using 4 stages, pre filter, carbon, re, res. Correct me if I'm wrong, like I said I'm new to this but carbon extends the life of the res. Why didn't you incorporate carbon in your system?
Thanks brother 🍻 not sure about the carbon.. I may be confusing it with a sediment filter but I read some mixed results on them before the resin and, in most cases, it seemed that it was people with well water that needed it (which wasn't the case for me). I also use the DI tanks very sparingly so I wasn't too concerned with prolonging them. Are you going with a ready made system or something you built? Curious to hear how it works out for you. Either way good luck with the build!
100ft Cox reel is def worth it. I was able to snag one for $120 at a local liquidation store. I had a generic Amazon PW reel and it’s a night and day difference. Reeling the hose is effortless w the Cox
Yep, before I got mine my kid picked up a cox retractible air hose reel from an estate sale and they seem to be really well made. Reeling in 75ft of hose with this is nothing.
How deep is the 2.3 without cage? How deep is your shelf? I have a 6” shelf that is like to use, so you think it’s deep enough?! Do you have any profile photos of what the 2.3 looks like up there? Going to attempt my own wall build…😬 Thanks!
The rubber base that makes contact with the shelf is relatively small, maybe 6 x 5" but the physical unit is about 10" deep (from the wall). My shelf is 20 x 10" but you could go a little smaller. Here's a pic: tinyurl.com/2cj7rdk7 Good luck with the build!

This is a damn fine point good sir 🍻
@@AlwaysSummerGarageI still think the Kranzle would look better up there haha
😉
The process and results are what makes it therapeutic. Not the tools or products you’re using.
@@Reaper-Jimlooks are subjective anyways
Your setup looks great
Thank you for the videos
Thank you brother.. I appreciate you checking them out 🍻
