I believe as a retrofit for my BR420(s) goes, it is a clever idea. It must be used in conjunction with a bungee cord or some other means to secure the lower part of the blower to the rack to keep it from bouncing, which can put undo stress on the blower backing plate and cause failure at some point. This is not to say that it's the fault of the bracket necessarily nor the backing plate of the blower. Stihl blowers from circa 1995 did not foresee this ever happening, I am sure.
Fortunately, there is brace on the rack for this purpose and a simple small bungee cord does the trick.

Will Stihl BR380 and BR420 Blowers Fit Rack'em Lockable Blower Rack # RA-19
Your Stihl BR380 blower should be fine but the BR420 will need an adapter to fit, # RA-STIHL420. The Rack'em Lockable Blower Rack # RA-19 can be installed on a trailer with tube or boxed frames since it just bolts onto the trailer. Depending on the thickness of the tube stock you may find that you will need longer hardware which you can get from any hardware store.

Can the Back Pack Blower Be Locked to PackEm Rack for Open Utility Trailers # PK-6-OP1
