AR45 Parts Breakdown

[@damiansgaragebuilds7663]

Thanks just ordered damn near everything in the description!

[@wperk100]

Just wanted to say thank you for all the links. For those of us that are planning a build this information is extremely valuable. Excellent post !!!!! Stay safe out there.

[@allproexteriorservicesllc5338]

Thanks a bunch & stay safe as well!!!

I love sprayer depot. They always have the best prices and super quick to ship.

[@jesusson3475]

Is one month good hose reel good?

[@AutoDudes]

@@jesusson3475 huh? If you’re asking what brand of hose reel is good, I say that Hannay is the best. Do not buy titan hose reels.

[@jesusson3475]

I brought a king

[@jesusson3475]

How it’s holding up sprayer depot I don’t really have nothing really good to say because customers service suck

[@allproexteriorservicesllc5338]

@mattpoe I added the remote box & remote links in the description. I used 1/2" hose for the bypass. I got the email of your response, but your comment did not how in the comments. Hope this helps. Thanks

[@AutoDudes]

7:58 just a heads up on the solenoid. It is stainless, however the internals are steel and will rust immediately if it has any bleach go through it. I know you said soap but just wanted to let you know. They’re finicky too. I went through two before I realized “oh wait, stainless body, steel internals because it’s a magnetic solenoid.” Haha

[@allproexteriorservicesllc5338]

Good info and I will keep an eye on it. I wanted the Banjo valve, but finding parts is very tough. Thanks

[@pashagold]

@@allproexteriorservicesllc5338 Any updates on the solenoid? I'm looking to build something like this.

[@allproexteriorservicesllc5338]

@@pashagold I have not had any problems with the solenoid yet. Thanks

[@bigreds9188]

Maybe you could use a 3/4" pvc board from home depot or lowes. Might hold up better to the weather and the chems then the plywood. I'm sure you'll get it figured out good luck 👍

[@allproexteriorservicesllc5338]

I believe that is the same as the Starboard I mentioned. Very durable and I will check Home Depot on my next trip. Thanks!

[@DumbCarGuy]

I want to remove my vanguard non electric start motor off of my AR45 but i don't know the shaft length and diameter to properly buy the new honda gx200 electric start motor. Do you happen to know what the shaft size and length needs to be to hook up to the AR45?

[@allproexteriorservicesllc5338]

The shaft size on my Vanguard 6.5 is 3/4" x 2-27/64". Thanks

[@FlashTechEngineering]

Hi bro, remember ditch those check valves and replace for isolation ball valve instead .. plumb in inline with your metering valve.. you can use manual or solenoid active ball valve.. 👍

[@allproexteriorservicesllc5338]

Flash, can you provide a link? I looked online but didn’t have any luck. Thanks

[@mikem6197]

How come you went with the solenoid valve for this and not a ball valve like with the the downstream box? Thanks

[@allproexteriorservicesllc5338]

There is no reason particularly. I read somewhere that the solenoid valve is actually a little smaller than the ball valves in the same size. Thanks

[@Unsilentmajority-1]

Kinda off topic but do you notice if you order a small part from US Plastics, like a .50 cent fitting they charge nearly $20 to ship it? Have you had better luck with them when you only need a tiny fitting???

[@allproexteriorservicesllc5338]

Unfortunately no. I usually end up buying a bunch of fittings to justify the shipping. Thanks

[@actualhumanbeing573]

When I used a wire calculator installing my 12v electric reel (36 amps it says), it said 4awg. Any issues with the 8? I guess you wouldn't have anything to compare it to but you'd know if it was getting hot or dropping out from low voltage I reckon.

[@allproexteriorservicesllc5338]

No issues so far. Thanks

[@PHFloppyD]

Are you running 300’ 1/2” AG hose for the AR? I’ve heard 5/8” is supposedly better, what’s your opinion on this? If so is that 1/2” flowing fine? I wasn’t sure how much of a difference 1/8” on the hose would really make honestly.

[@allproexteriorservicesllc5338]

I am running 300' of 1/2" ag hose. I have never ran the 5/8" hose & don't plan on it. I am very satisfied with the flow from the 1/2" hose and heard the 5/8" hose is a bit heavy. Plus, most reels have a 1/2" manifold so there is a bottle neck. Hope this helps! Thanks

[@PHFloppyD]

Question what gauge wire u using to hook up teejet and the us solid to the remote also what brand remote box is that and did it come with that black box cover I'm trying to duplicate this for my AR 30 thanks

[@allproexteriorservicesllc5338]

I think it is 14 gauge wire. Thanks

[@2bParagon]

If you don't mind me asking, how large is that piece of plywood to fit everything, I want to put mine in an electrical hinge cover box for protection, just curious how large of a box I would need.

[@allproexteriorservicesllc5338]

I think it is around 16/18" tall x 22" wide. Be careful with the box & leaks. If it leaks SH, it could cause corrosion issues if you don't rinse it off. Thanks

[@2bParagon]

@@allproexteriorservicesllc5338 thanks, i'll keep that in mind.

[@mattpoe1974]

on the metering valves, is in necesary to use a 1 inch on sh or would a 1/2 inch valve work?

[@allproexteriorservicesllc5338]

You need 1" for the water & SH. 1//2" will not provide the proper flow. Thanks

[@vman6365]

thanks brother for the details..... have you been able to locate the guy from Facebook that made the module for your 12 volt mixer?

[@allproexteriorservicesllc5338]

Yes, you can message Jason Tippett on facebook. Thanks

You keeping the 12v installed? I have decided to keep mine gonna have 2 systems for flexibility and backup

[@allproexteriorservicesllc5338]

Yes. I believe the 12 volt will work great in some applications. Thanks

[@palmtree8604]

Man I know you are just itching to try this system out. Game changer for sure 🧀🧀

Hopefully we will have time this weekend to finish it off. But yes, I am itching for sure. Thanks

[@ktpowerwashing]

Disregard my hose comment. I just saw the hose that u posted the link on. That IS the correct hose

[@heightssoftwash708]

Any info on the solenoid? Where to buy.. how it is holding up.

[@allproexteriorservicesllc5338]

It is holding up well so far. I bought the solenoid from US Solid. Thanks

[@2152808483]

I watched this video and bought the same engine and ar-45 but where do the positive and negative battery cables go on the engine there’s nothing in the manual and I called vanguard and they don’t even have a clue

[@allproexteriorservicesllc5338]

I put the ground wire on the bolt that mounts the engine to the skid & then to the negative battery post. The positive wire connects to the stater solenoid on the bottom post. You can reach out to me if you need pics. Thanks

[@dcsc4895]

would you say this is a better pump than the comet p 40? PS you are a legend for this

[@allproexteriorservicesllc5338]

Not sure since I never ran the Comet P40. According to my research, the parts for the AR45 are easier to get. Thanks

[@dcsc4895]

@@allproexteriorservicesllc5338 Thank u!

[@ktpowerwashing]

We tried using poly braid for our suction/supply line on our comet p40 and they kept capitating due the amount of suction from the pump. We had to upgrade to steel wire but i think you're going to have issues with yours

[@allproexteriorservicesllc5338]

I am using non collapsible hose. The only poly braid hose I’m using is for the soap line. I hope to test it soon and hope not to have any issues. Thanks for the heads up

[@scottgarvey9164]

i just bought a ar-45 today. what size are your hose barbs? my outlet seems to be 5/8 thought it was supposed to be 3/4. when i hook up my out let hose going to my hose reel it blows off. so just wondering if yours came with 5/8

[@allproexteriorservicesllc5338]

My outlet hose to the reel is 1/2" & the bypass hose is 3/4" & main feed is 1". Maybe you got the AR60? Thanks

@@allproexteriorservicesllc5338 it’s the ar 45 everything is same as yours but main feed is 1”1/4 how come my red gun keeps blowing off my 1/2” hose? i have to clamps on it i don’t know what’s going on

[@allproexteriorservicesllc5338]

@@scottgarvey9164 I use 2 clamps on the barb that connects to the red gun. I don’t think the 1 1/4” main feed hose matters.

@@allproexteriorservicesllc5338 Thanks

[@ronjclm8590]

You are using 1/2 inch ag hose on your hose reel. Even people using 5.5 gallon 12 volt pumps say 1/2 inch is fine, but 5/8 is better. Gas pump guys use 5/8 inch...less friction and better flow and distance.

[@allproexteriorservicesllc5338]

My 1/2" hose is perfect. Thanks
