Awesome build! Do you have a link for the brake/turn signal lights?

Probably should have put fender washers on top of the rubber washers additionally if the rubber washers were 3/16 holes that would naturally form a seal on the bolts when you tighten them up. Thanks for posting this video it’s given me some ideas for my next project. Best regards K.

Nice build. Really like the clean look of using metal materials, as compared to wood.

What kind of battery charger did you go with?

I really like the flush track. Great idea.

That adapter that you made to enable you to swap your awning that quickly. Where can I buy some?

The weld comment is EXACTLY what another video said.

Thank you Javi Lee. I enjoyed your hard work. I think the ideas you came up with were outstanding such as : using a metal frame housing (welding too was great), All the suspension bolts for wheels looked right according to other videos I saw about that topic. I liked the tail light positioning. I would like to see more about how to hook up the electrical with the battery and fuse box with the vehicle and describe any electronics that come with your kits to watch out for. Also, what other types of building out project ideas such as: Hooking up a bath, water, electric outlets etc. Good stuff - I'll keep tuned in. Peace ~

Tough job!

are you plan to get it streetlegal and trail it back of a car?

Can you build me one?

Thank you! I followed along and setup my 2019 Ram 1500 accordingly. Much appreciated

Did you notice much of a difference? Did it pull better? Thanks!

Can you share a link to your roof rack components? Super cool vid btw

Nice install! Quick tip to try in the future. Slide your t bolts in on the rack wherever you want them first, put a dot of paint or nail polish on the tip of each bolt facing upwards and lightly set the cargo box on them. It’ll mark perfectly where you need to drill your four holes, a lot quicker than measuring everything.

Can you do a video showing how to remove and replace the a/c pressure switch (Low side) on a 4x4 Tacoma 2014?

Nice job. Mine arrives tomorrow. Good job explaining everything

Where did you buy the winch mount?

Any difference s if you run the cables from the controller (output) straight to the battery not to the fuse block?

Excelente video.

Sorry ,schematic,,for a.above vehicle..

Really liked your approach,,how can i get a schemat fot install of frig for a 2020 ,toyota sienna ,xle,seats removed , my room on wheels,,please..

Please make more stealth camping , love this

Awesome! Good to find a video on something Ive been wanting to do on our apache case. good stuff!

Have you sprayed the inside of the box section with corrosion inhibitor? Wax oil? You can just spray the inside top of the box, because it will drip down, when it gets very hot! Very good build by the way :).

I used 550 cord

Excellent video!!! Can you give me his measurements? especially the merits of the frame?

Nice build. Very utilitarian, which is what you need. My only issue is getting my dog into the tent, or I'd get a roof tent in a heartbeat.

weld side ways better

Def ground to the battery man .

These are NOT real overlanding trailers

Why the shock absorber? Don't think I've seen anyone else do that. Results?

Sweet build! Now that you've used it a bit, what improvements would you make, if any?

Thanks for the quick and dirty review on this awning. I have to say the biggest thing about freestanding awnings that scares me (seeing all the horror story on the tube....) is how quickly it is for a huge wind gust to essentially mangle the entire thing beyond repair. That's a LOT of wing surface and a lot of cantilever force applied to that one articulation where all the arms stack up. IF I ever buy another one (did buy an ironman once and returned/sold it one hour later after installation and realized the backside would NOT cover my kitchen/hatch area of my truck) I would certainly advocate to ALWAYS drop the extra pole or at least put the guy lines down. $270 is a great price. Best of luck.

Great project! The WaterWeld might be a bit overkill. Applying PVC glue to both the male and female parts of the pipe should prevent any leaks. This method is commonly used in building sprinkler systems, gutters, and perimeter drains.

Hey Javi, Can you clean my garage too, please?

Thanks for the video! I successfully installed one strut on the wheel side using the screws with no protrusions. There are solid plastic “feet” that make the sidewall much thicker. So far one strut does me just fine and I did 2 cases for $30

CPVC pipe is better than PVC . It can handle heat better. My 3” PVC Solar shower plastic stinks of plastic real bad after 3 years in Sun the pipe was really breaking down. Next one CPVC !

Great build, very understanding neighbours?

Not only should those shock bolts to torqued *TIGHT* but also require use of lock nuts. The shock's bushing is designed to relieve the torsion stress. The bushing sleeves *MUST* be fastened secure and static.

I'm considering a homemade rack for my roof that does NOT have channels or existing mounting holes. Did you use the spacers just to clear the channel grooves? On MY roof (no channels), would placing the angle iron directly on the roof give more surface area (contact) to distribute the load better? Of course, I'd have nuts beneath the roof. I appreciate your opinion. This is just a brainstorm at this point; so, no dreams dashed if you think it's a bad idea. ;-) Thanks!

What is the external product called, what type of material please?

I had a buddy get seriously injured making one of these. Lost one of his eyes, 4 teeth and broke his jaw over pressuring it and the butt cap blew off and smashed his face. It’s a great idea but just be careful pressurizing it

If you could go back and do it again; would/could you have water welded the joints from the inside as you were assembling it as opposed to afterwards? Love the video and think what you have done is pretty rad!

Good video man, thanks!

Why did it leak? It should have welded plastic together...something was wrong with your glue for the PVC. I think most likely is that you applied the purple primer and let to too many pieces and it dried before you put them together. Everything needs to be wet when you push them together. Some teflon tape on threads might have sealed the screw on pieces.

I had the same issues with leaks. I used JB Weld which seems to help. Rather than use my big inflation pump, I bought a cheap Amazon adjustable pump for $23. You can set the pressure where you want it. Nice job on your mounts. I never thought about 3d printing something. I just used the extra large tie wraps.

I am months away for starting my square build. I so appreciate your honest no bullshit approach.

When you mounted your topper rack, did you mount directly to topper or did you install rails ??
