  • I wanted to build a rear cargo drawer system for my 2016 Jeep Wrangler 4door. I did quite a bit of research and found some really good info out there but not a ton out there specific to the Wrangler.
    I’m not an expert builder by any means. I enjoy it and can get by, but I’m no master carpenter. I took ideas I found from other online - videos and forum posts - and decided to jump in to the build. I figured I would document the process, not so much as a “how-to” video, but more as a “what-I-did” video.
    For any expert builders, this would be pretty simply. But for those out there, like me, hopefully this will give you an idea of what can be done and will give you ideas for your build.
    My dimensions and plans (some changed, FYI): jumpshare.com/...
    For complete video on build of the slide-out table: • DIY Building slide out...
    Below is the list of items I purchased online:
    - Rubber Flexible T-Latch: amzn.to/3wfPXxe
    - Diamond Plated Rubber Mat (for top of box): amzn.to/3ld6WK2
    - Drawer Slides - 24":amzn.to/3LhPZZJ
    Here’s references for resources I relied on. Thanks to these folks for posting their process:

    I know this is older video and I have watched this 3 or 4 times to keep my ideas fresh till I build mine. But I love that you got the game on your laptop playing. I can relate because that's exactly what I do when I'm building stuff in my shed 😂😂

  • @blairjohnson8561
    @blairjohnson8561 Před 7 lety +24

    This is such an awesome build man. Looks great and its super functional. My favorite part of the video is that you didn't go over the top with it. Used materials and tools that people of all skill levels can relate to and be comfortable. Great job!

    • @RyanWelch-aofilms
      @RyanWelch-aofilms  Před 7 lety +3

      Glad it helped! That was my goal. Build something that I KNEW I could - and that didn't LOOK cheap... and hopefully share it with others like me.

    Great idea with the locking pins - lock-out sliders are super expensive so I will give this a go!

    I make high end custom cabinets for a living and have to say you did a pretty good job on these. Pretty ambitious for your first project and you nailed it! Im sure you learned a lot for next time aswell.

  • @Territheparadox

    This is literally the best DIY drawer build I've seen! Going to try to do something very similar for my 2017 JK 2 door. Thanks for sharing!!!!

    • @RyanWelch-aofilms
      @RyanWelch-aofilms  Před 2 lety

      Did you end up building your drawer system for your 2017 2-door?? Would love to hear about it if so!

  • @CD-lw6fl
    @CD-lw6fl Před 4 lety +1

    Good job. In the process of building my own box as well. Also using that 1/8” rubber diamond plate finish.
    Well done for someone who’s not a carpenter 😎👍

  • @christopherhowey5426
    @christopherhowey5426 Před 3 lety +1

  • @kenman5743
    @kenman5743 Před rokem

    Just discovered your vid. Was looking for some inspiration for a DYI drawer project for my Wrangler. You have perhaps just made my surf fishing / camping that much easier. Simplicity with a hint of sophistication! Great job sir!!

  • @rodw
    @rodw Před 5 lety +1

    So inspiring!! I'm pretty much a novice woodworker and I believe that I could build this. I like the rubber diamond plate. I thought you might use it on the drawer fronts. One thought on the table part if you're going to use it for food preparation, check and make sure nothing in the finish will make you sick. If any doubt I would sand it down and use an oil they make for cutting board. Your woodworking friend might be helpful with that. I think you did a great job and added some cool features like the table. Thanks for sharing your talent and video, Rodney

  • @rhysyahrens
    @rhysyahrens Před 5 lety

    g’day mate, i’m a furniture maker by trade. Just a quick tip for you!
    it’s not a good ideal to seal the timber with a Urethane if you use that timber board for cutting food on. the proper solution is to soaked the board in cooking oil/olive oil for cutting food on. Urethane can go through your food when cutting on the board.

  • @ADPX24
    @ADPX24 Před 6 lety

    Nice. The cutting board attached to the drawer is a great idea. Might have to change up my set up in the back of my taco to something like that.

    • @RyanWelch-aofilms
      @RyanWelch-aofilms  Před 6 lety

      Glad it gave you some inspiration. I got a lot of inspiration for watching other people's builds too. Thanks for watching!

    Like the video man. I'm not a jeep guy but the problems are still the same for K5 blazers. Noting really works well. Really impressed with the idea of the slide out table. Very handy.

    • @RyanWelch-aofilms
      @RyanWelch-aofilms  Před 7 lety +1

      anomaly983 yeah slide out table idea came after I'd already started but it's pretty handy.

    • @RyanWelch-aofilms
      @RyanWelch-aofilms  Před 2 lety

      For sure! I didn’t have pocket screws at the time but have since used those on numerous projects. Would work great on something like this! Good luck with the build!

  • @MRBIG-lg9zl
    @MRBIG-lg9zl Před 5 měsíci

    super old video but used your plans with a couple changes. Still used 3/4 plywood. Deleted full bottom and replaced with 3 3/4 x 2 cross pieces (Front back and middle)both sides and back were cut as you specified, but "perforated" with 3 1/2 holes saw down the center to remove as much weight as practical while maintaining strength. great job tho!!

    • @RyanWelch-aofilms
      @RyanWelch-aofilms  Před 5 měsíci

      Love it! That's a great idea on the bottom to save weight!

  • @huf67

  • @nickunlisted358
    @nickunlisted358 Před 4 lety

    I have a 97 jeep, though I couldn't follow your instructions exactly it did inspire the design I used, just an idea I used a larger board on the top that covers the entire area rather than just the cabnats.

  • @matthewduerksen3586
    @matthewduerksen3586 Před 7 lety +1

    Looks great! I actually build my plans for my drawers based on the same post on expeditionportal. My finished box should be a hair under 38" wide by 28" deep. One drawer is wider than the other to accommodate 2 cub pack tubs from front runner. The other drawer is thinner and I will probably run some dividers there.

    • @RyanWelch-aofilms
      @RyanWelch-aofilms  Před 7 lety

      That's awesome. I'd love to see it. I thought about adding some dividers as well. Still may do that after getting some more use of it.

    That came out great. I want to make something exactly like that, but for the passenger side, I want to build some type of hinged sleeping system, that can be unfolded to fit over the passenger seats. Still thinking about it tho.

  • @frozentwiddlelump
    @frozentwiddlelump Před 6 lety

    Great functional build and I think I'll be making something similar! The one addition that might come in handy is to add some tie-down points on the top or maybe along the sides. In my Liberty, the factory tie-down are useless plastic...

    • @RyanWelch-aofilms
      @RyanWelch-aofilms  Před 6 lety

      +Steve Elliott yes I love that idea. I’ve been thinking about that. I’ve been looking at different ideas. Would love to hear if you see any thing that would make sense.

    • @frozentwiddlelump
      @frozentwiddlelump Před 6 lety

      I've been looking at the cargo tie-down rails they use in aircraft (and other things). I'm not sure how much clearance you have underneath the top of the box, but if there's enough room to get a good solid washer and nut in without interfering with the drawers or content, you could easily bolt these to the top. They're much lower profile that something like eye bolts that would be permanently sticking up, and they wouldn't rattle around like D-rings. They would also give you a bunch of different tie-down options.

    • @RyanWelch-aofilms
      @RyanWelch-aofilms  Před 6 lety +1

      Steve Elliott great. I’ll look into these. My concerns where rattling and the height of them so these may work around both of those. Appreciate the link.

    Thanks for sharing this Ryan! I'm nearly finished building a set of drawers myself. Also did a lot of research online but never found good ways to lock drawers open/closed or especially important, anchor the cabinets down. You've solved my last couple of problems so thanks again! Hope those OBDR 3 plans are coming along...I have my god tracks if that would be helpful.

    • @RyanWelch-aofilms

Also looks like you were catching the Falcons/ Seahawks game. Ugh...I'm a Falcons fan who has still not gotten over the SB.

  • @hlic7941
    @hlic7941 Před 2 lety

    Looks nice, but damn, so heavy using that thick plywood for the frame and for the drawers. This is OK if weight is not an issue, but hard to see why you need full bottom for the box that the drawers fit in. Perhaps you need no bottom under the drawers at all since you are attaching the sliders to the side of the frame...

    • @RyanWelch-aofilms
      @RyanWelch-aofilms  Před 2 lety

      Agreed! If I was doing it again, would not include the bottom.

  • @CrisPearson
    @CrisPearson Před 6 lety

    One of the best looking drawer builds I’ve seen. Nice work. How much up and down give is there when using the wood chopping board? Do they need additional legs when all the way out?

    • @RyanWelch-aofilms
      @RyanWelch-aofilms  Před 6 lety

      Thanks. There's really not that much give at all. I mostly use it for my single burner stove and some lighter weight food/drinks with no issues at all. If you were gonna put something more than 10 lbs on there, you'd probably want to figure out some sort of stabilizer for the bottom.

  • @chriscynefin966
    @chriscynefin966 Před rokem

    Just thinking about security, if someone gets into the Jeep topless, and puts the back seats down, can't they just nab the entire box by detaching it from the Jeep? I wonder if it would've been better to have the attachments in the box?

    • @RyanWelch-aofilms
      @RyanWelch-aofilms  Před rokem

      Yeah probably not a bad idea. I found that I mostly use it in the winter when top is on. After a few years I bought a Diabolical Enclosure for the back so when top was down I could secure items in the back and that works great!

  • @pujabelgian
    @pujabelgian Před 5 lety

    Cool, but how do you access the lower storage? Also.. weight vs strength should be considered. Drawers vs open space.. know what you plan on stowing. Ours has acess to lower storage. 16" h. X 24 deep X width.
    For sleeping we added a track to fr of box to clip the ply panels into. Voila! It's a 2 door JK camper. Sleeps 2.

    • @RyanWelch-aofilms
      @RyanWelch-aofilms  Před 5 lety

      Don’t have access to lower storage when the drawers are in there. Everything from lower storage goes in the drawers.

      @RyanWelch-aofilms  Před 7 lety +1

      At this point, not really. The only thing I can think of might be to add another 1-2" to the height of it. Otherwise, I'm pretty happy with it. I'll keep you posted if anything comes up though!

  • @thisguy2659
    @thisguy2659 Před 7 lety

    AO ADVENTURE Hey great build. I'm doing something very similar, and thanks for your insight and help. Just a quick idea on what I'm going. I'm cutting a hole into the base so I can just pull the drawer out if i need to access the bottom storage. Also, I pulled the liner out so I can access the storage, and my system comes up to the jack cubby so I can still access that freely. Thinking of switching out for a bottle jack I'll keep in the drawer and use that cubby for my tool roll. Quick question, how is the bed liner holding up? Debating between painting or carpeting.

    • @RyanWelch-aofilms
      @RyanWelch-aofilms  Před 7 lety +1

      Love the idea of the hole in the bottom to access the storage! When you say 'bed liner' do you mean in the bottom of the drawers? Those are holding up great! I am realizing that now that it's summer time and the soft top is on, and thus more 'open air' I'm thinking of taking the drawers out so i can store stuff under a bungee net. Glad I made the drawers removable for sure.

    • @thisguy2659
      @thisguy2659 Před 7 lety

      AO ADVENTURE yeah I'm mounting mine the same way as you for that reason. When I said Bedliner I meant the head coating you sprayed on the drawers. How's that holding up?

    Great video, you cut like I do! Just close enough to make it even with sandpaper! How much weight will your table hold? Did you end up making support legs?

    • @RyanWelch-aofilms
      @RyanWelch-aofilms  Před 2 lety

      Thanks! Holds plenty of weight. Haven’t maxed it out but no issues putting anything you might need kitchen-wise on there. Also use it quite a bit for camera gear and it works great.

    Nice job. One thing that wasn't clear to me was the woofer speaker. Did you just eliminate it or does the 16 not have it?

      The sub is below the drawer. Doesn’t interfere at all from what I can tell.

    Great job brother! I don't suppose you could access the factory lower storage? I picked up my 2017 JKU and will probably look into similar project. Thanks for sharing!

    • @RyanWelch-aofilms
      @RyanWelch-aofilms  Před 7 lety

      Brandon Koay No access to the lower storage compartment unless you pull the entire box out. Which is why I made it not that permanent. I store everything I would have stored underneath there in the drawers though. Hasn't been an issue up to this point. Good luck with your build!

    • @Airkoay
      @Airkoay Před 7 lety

      Thanks for replying. So, I assumed you've relocated your factory jack? BTW how much did it cost you total for the setup?

    • @RyanWelch-aofilms
      @RyanWelch-aofilms  Před 7 lety +1

      Brandon Koay yeah the jack is in my left drawer. I'd estimate the cost between $150-175.

    • @Airkoay
      @Airkoay Před 7 lety +1

    How has the adhesive holding the rubber mat to the plywood held up? I'm doing a similar build and I've been struggling to find something that works well in that application.

    • @RyanWelch-aofilms
      @RyanWelch-aofilms  Před 5 lety

      Sorry for the delayed response. The rubber is great! Holding up very well. The plywood takes it the hardest with things banging into it and chipping away at it, but the rubber top has no issues. And provides a surface that prevents things from sliding around on it.

      Cost was around $210. But that probably includes a couple extra trips to Home Depot after a mistake or two. 😀 . I built the majority of it it in a weekend - maybe 8 hours total.

    Thank you very much for sharing! Other than the two tie downs at the rear, do you have it mounted to the Jeep anywhere else? I’m building a kit and looking for a solution that is easily removable (like you’d mentioned). Thanks

    • @RyanWelch-aofilms
      @RyanWelch-aofilms  Před 5 lety

      Those are the only points that’s it’s tied down. It works fine. And like you, I wanted this to be something I could easily take out. I usually take it out during summer months and put it back in during the winter.
