Undercarriage washer on their pressure washer?

[The motor guy]

I wonder if this would be worthwhile? I can see it being good for my boat trailer. I live in the south, but I don't see a problem with getting the dirt and grime buildup off underneath my truck. Probably more useful to north where you have salt.

I bought this undercarraige washer from Amazon last week to wash the road salt off of our vehicles. It works like a charm and I like the larger diameter wheels better than the small casters on the Northern Tool version. It comes with two interchangeable orifices: a small one for pressure washers up to 1800 psi and a larger orifice for washers rated for over 1800 psi up to 4000 psi.

Yeah I was wondering about that, but given it has 4 nozzles I don't think backpressure would be an issue. I think 3.5 is the smallest I can go on my pressure washer if I remember right.

I have that Ridge undercarriage washer and it does an exceptional job.

I imagine it gets old putting everything together, using it in freezing weather, then putting it away, and doing this every evening.

I was gonna mention that. It's a pain trying to untangle pressure washer hose. Doesn't matter how neatly you wind them up.

Buy a Flexzilla hose...much more pliable.

Better than nothing I suppose, depends how much dirt/gravel roads you drive. I've done oiling jobs where I customer was warned to clean their chassis and didn't with the result of concrete like deposits on TOP of the frame where you cannot access well.
