    Your truck being white makes it look like there is a lot more foam on it than there actually is. That said, between y'all and Reddit, I'm considering getting one. Is there a recommended PSI for pressure washer? The me that I know really wants to big 3200psi one, but the cheapo in me and the me that doesn't need to add much more space consuming items in my garage says the 1600psi refurbished ryobi electric will probably be just fine.

    PSI isn't the main factor, it's high GPM. More flow will create more foam.

    Installed the Big Sky SBR-1G with optional SBR-OSH (replaces the oh shit handle) mounts. Rack was $99 at Cabelas and the mounts were $35 from Big Sky.

    I removed the center foam padded velcro mount and replaced it with a QD buckle and strap; it's just an easier system to manipulate especially being close to the ceiling. I also mounted the brackets upside down to get the rack as close to the ceiling as possible so the gun is not visible from outside unless you bend down and then look up. I have the exact same rack and QD strap in my 4R, and in a previous Xterra before that, and it has been 100% secure. You can add a cable lock if you are going to be away from the truck.

    I use this on camping trips and don't leave a gun in there all the time; and it's a legal way to carry even in California.

    Don't mind my POS shotty. I bought it for $100 ten years ago to have a cheap truck gun and it has since been fired like a million times, been chucked in trunks and backseats mercilessly, and survived a house fire.

    I like that. I've thought about trying one. After seeing yours I may have to do it.

    Not today but this Saturday Ill be installing this Headstrong 2" kit on my fathers 2008. Just barely made it home in time to meet the UPS man in my driveway and sign for it. He already had the sticker on the door and was ready to drive off. Wouldve been a pain if I had to drive to the distribution center for pick up. IMG_20190926_173225209.jpg

    I want one myself, but have no where to hang it. DTOY's table is made of 316 stainless steel, perfect for Hawaii's beaches.

    If you can get the bigger pressure washer , also the soap is a big factor. I use super suds from chemical guys that produces most foam even thoo I have.a cheap sunjoe electric pressure washer

    You clip the wires from the board, leading to the red LEDs, ground the black wire, put resistors on the red wire, hook the red wire to your brake light circuit on your taillight housing

    I have the same rack but have never installed it. Do you have a link to the brackets that you used? Looks exactly how I want mine to look!
