- I had the pleasure of recording a project for Integrity Homeworks, based in the Black Hills of South Dakota. This project included the complete transformation of an FJ Cruiser from your everyday car to a home on wheels. Please check out www.integrityhomeworks.com to see more of his work or to contact him for a project of your own!
Hands down, the best set up for an FJ. Great work 👏
Thank you for watching!
Thank you Ash! It came out quite nicely and the I believe the customer is quite happy with it.
@Bobbi Moccia I can certainly build you one, but I can only assume that shipping would be brutal. Swing by my website and shoot me an email so we can talk further.
@Bobbi Moccia I am located in South Dakota near Mt Rushmore. I'm not sure how YT handles links but mine is in the description above. Note: I am not a web designer 😉
this was some really good wood working. very well planned.
Thank you Kevin!
the man knows things!

Thank you so much for watching!
Great Caesar's Ghost!
Your hired!!.take my money!
Really nice work! Well done!
Thank you PB2!
Absolutely amazing. Definitely beats what I have currently. Looking to see if you have plans for what you built in the video, or looking to see where you’re based out of to have this done in my FJ
Hi Mason. I don't get any alerts about replies, so sorry about the delay. Please check my website to contact me. Sorry, I haven't converted my chicken scratches to plans for others to be able to read...
Awesome job now do you want to come and help me with mine, lol.
Amazing
Thank you so much for watching!
Nice to have a shop plus shop grade or better plywood. Weight before and after in vehicle would be interesting. 🤔
What would it cost to build one for my 2012 FJ? I can pick it up. 😁 that is fantastic.
Would you be willing to share the build measurements? I’m looking to do someone almost exactly like this to my rig
How much did this build end up weighing and how much weight was saved by taking seats out?
Can you come to Belgium? I have a van you can convert ;)
Poor FJ it will need 2000LB springs to hold up all that wood. 3/4" plywood for the drawers too? Needed a forklift to put it in the car.lolol
What's the length of the bed platform? I'm 6'4" and was curious if I'd be able to fit very well sleeping in an fj
The platform with the wings up was 6'0" I believe. Sorry but you would probably need the pillow to run up onto the folded seatback. I would bet it to be just too short for comfort.
@@orvsr4me2 thanks for the info :)
Sorry Mr. Jesse, looks like you won't be able to have a sleepover anytime soon. ☹️
Really beautiful and illuminating work ! I'm beginning my own FJ build-out now very inspired. - I'm curious: why the double wall between the two drawer compartments (as opposed to just a single wall) ? And, is the bottom a thinner material? I mean, is it 1/2" where all else in the platform/drawer insert (not including dividers) is 3/4"??
Sorry for the delayed response. I don't check here very often anymore. The double wall was an evolutionary design, initially so I could install the two sides independently. I did away with this in the next version as it isn't necessary. I used 1/4 for the bottom of this one, 1/2 on the next version but will both had advantages depending on the pull out tables. 3/4 (18mm) used throughout the structure elsewhere.
Excellent build. It looks like you did it bespoke. Did you do it from scratch or did you produce plans?
I drew up my own plans and do all the production myself. Thank you!
any of those plans available?
Hi Larry. The plans have been evolving and they change for each customer. There is also a bit of fitting but I am getting there!
@@orvsr4me2 I can watch your video a few times and pretty much see the process, a lot of cuts and nice fitting parts. Just wondered if you actually had shop plans available. Good to see your work!
Awesome build, though can't help but notice the $thousands in labor expended - seems many $thousands. For the average person, it would not be justified, throwing ten grand toward a drawer/platform bed system.
That is a very valid point volvo but this build actually came in at a fraction of that amount for my customer. And thank you for the compliment!
@@orvsr4me2 Then your customer got a great deal. Your attention to detail & skill w/ your tools is obvious. One of my 1st jobs was in a custom cabinet-making shop, so I know a bit about the trade.
Yoo
can you make and ship to me how much it cost
Hello! I am just the videographer for the project, but please feel free to reach out to Integrity Homeworks (integrityhomeworks@gmail.com) about getting your own build!
Ящик хорош, только всё это лишний вес, дополнительный расход топлива
Thank you. After removing the factory rear seats the weight addition was not substantial. I would guess not more than 100lbs (45kg).
Man…
Can you build me one?
Absolutely. 👍
@@orvsr4me2 i will need one as well! info please!
@@RobertoGarcia-xh3ki see my website address in the description above and my contact info. I am a carpenter/remodeler who is finally getting to do overland builds!
@@orvsr4me2 how much?
Too bad there is no narration to explain what you're doing, pitfalls to avoid, tips & tricks.
helps if you watch a few times and hit the pause button. Make more sense when you know the inside of the Fj really well
Next time I should narrate or do CC. Great idea Scott. I agree. The next video needs editing and I will try to do so.
can you make one for me u will pay thx
this is the most awful build I've seen
Pls loose that annoying ass music
