Odd. Mine came on a pallet with a bunch of individual boxes. Was delivered by freight too.
I also felt it went up super easy to get up. I measured twice. Mounted my stringers, then followed the instructions.
REALLY! dang, that's awesome. Maybe I chose the wrong delivery method or they recently changed that. My instructions were awful, not sure if maybe they updated that too. Do you have a grade to the floor it was mounted on? That was my main issue with putting it up (not the rigs fault) as there's about an inch drop on the left upright (and its slightly bent).
Great review, thank you. By chance did you figure out a solution for grade in garages?
I put ¼ in thin stall mats under the platform to offset the drop.
Would you say buying this on Black Friday is the cheapest? How much percent off did you get? Great video by the way
Samuel Nunez yes, I think it was something near or just over 30%. Amazon has good pricing and you can always take a look at marketplace apps (letgo) for good deals. Thank you!
I see you did use the wall stringer. Let me know if you want to sell the stringer. They are currently out of stock on the Titan website.
I'm glad I'm not the only one. I've taken 2 whole nights to try and put this together and it still doesn't work. The instructions are terrible and non-existent. For how much time and money I've now spent on this rack, I could've purchased the PRX or Rogue
How much room is there on each side of the barbell? I have heard it is very tight when reracking.
3 weeks to build sheesh! I built mine in about 2 hours by myself. The hardest art was getting the 2x10x8s on the wall
KixNxtDoor ya (obviously not 3 weeks of work) it was hard to focus on and my slanted garage floor was the main problem.
John Konye yea that’s something I didn’t run into fortunately. All in all I like the rack. It’s a no frills rack that gets the job done
I'm going to buy a folding rack. Why would you need/want a 41 inch over a 21 inch rack? I'm genuinely curious, not talking shit. Thanks.
Just depends on the space you have and if you want the extra space while working out. 21 folds better (down center).
I bought the 21" rack. Plenty of room to bench/squat, and get a spotter in there for bench if necessary. The only reason, personally, I can see for 41" depth is for kipping pull ups & more luxerious room for a spotter behind you, if that's a factor.
Debating between the 24" space saver T-3 and the X-3 21" foldable rack
If you have the budget, go ROGUE. way more worth it!
@@JohnKonye I do have the budget but why is it more worth it? I will be using it just for squats and benching pretty much
What size screw did you use to mount the actual rack into the board?
Used the provided bolts.
What were the distances from the floor that you mounted the wall attachments? What is the distance between the uprights? Thanks
I do not remember sorry. If you lay the uprights down and pin the pull up bar to them, you could guestimate by measuring the width there. The arm goes strait back, arm is center to the bolt holes, ect for the distance between uprights.
From floor, its up to you I think, but don't bank on my advice. Another reason I was super disappointed with titan. Worst instructions ever.
Know comments late but would I be able to use the dip station on this 🤔
I believe so
is this good to mount on drywall studs? The holes in the retaining bracket look distant so I feel it'll be wider than the studs.. any suggestions pls?
Need a stringer (6x10 plank) to link 6 studs then bolt the rack to the stringers
how does the barbell fit on the j-hooks what is the the outside measurement of the uprights?
If I remember correctly, it was pretty tight fit to get it re racked. Go rogue if you can.
Do the attachments on the standing T3 work with this?
🤷🏼♂️ not sure, never got them.
Is it sturdy enough to dips on?
should be.
What about the 21" vs the 41" you have? I can't think of reasons why I should get the 41"....thoughts?
Gerry Paci really just comes down to space. I thought it would be to crunchy for me with the 21” for pull ups, but when I looked at my friends 21” rogue rack, would have been fine
John Konye can you do incline and decline bench presses on the 21”?
@@spiderman7642 yes
Did you use lag bolts or structural screws to install it?
5 inch ⅜ lags
John Konye Thanks! I bought one of these used months ago and it’s been sitting in my garage...with shelter in place here in IL...seems like a good time to put it to use!
what kind of clear board (where you wrote your workout) is that?
HustlewithRussell619 i think I searched “clear White board” on amazon. Its just tempered glass with mounting hardware.
Sorry, but a con on not knowing how to build it seems to fall more on you than the manufacturer. I could imagine most people being able to build this without needing any instruction if they have any carpentry skills at all. Complicated build, had 5 pieces to put together.
Sick condescending comment 🤣. The rack is garbage. I got the rogue folding rack and it was a quick install. It’s about quality of parts and they had several pages to reference.
