- FIRST TIME REMOVING THE CANOPY ! MITS ALLOY JACK OFF CANOPY.
This is my first time removing the canopy from the tray, I was keen to see what the truck looks like with out the canopy.
These jack off style canopy’s make your truck extremely useful over a full time canopy. You could also consider having a work canopy set up this would make the tray canopy so versatile to swap between set ups for both work and play.

Thank you for pointing out one truck could be for work and play.
I discovered this awesome product not too long ago and before I jumped down the rabbit hole, that was my first thought, am I sacrificing the practicality of a pick up for this. This is a perfect solution! I have thought long and hard how to make my 2004 f350 more overland without giving up the bed as it is my daily driver too. Time to start saving up. Thanks for the walk around too, amazing content!
mate its always going to look tough without the canopy, its a truck. they are meant to look mean and cool. love the truck, love the channel and love your personality. chill and a very down to earth aussie bloke. keep up the work. stay a legend. catches later
Absolute ripper set up, with and without the canopy. I'm chasing a jack off canopy for touring so I can set up a camp and still make use of ute, I'm getting plenty of ideas from your content!
Great idea , this would be the kind of setup i’d like on my Hilux
8:05 "If you had the money, you could have two canopies..." 😂
Lucky if I have enough money for one ebay canopy to go on the back of my 10 year old dual cab 😂
looks good with the Canopy and better with out.
awesome set up mate . another great .vid .
Looks Amazing
Such a nice rig and great setup
Sweet rig mate! Clean set up!
Really good idea..if just goin to work everyday, just take it off then if goin for camping just pop it on,,you gave me idea..
Looks very cool, be interested to see how you pack it for a swag camping trip 👍
Hey mate. I love the jack off canopy setups. I have one back home that I couldn’t take on the road as it was too heavy so I had to get a lighter one. Planning on doing the two canopy setup once we settle back into a house and I have to work again. I got much cheaper canopies than what I imagine yours would cost lol.
Good vid mate. Just come upon your channel thanks to MrBuckaroonie.
Ice vid mate. Just a little suggestion put 4 small bolts in the hold down holes in the try, the holes fill up with dirt and shit. Keep up the good work
Looks great both ways mate 👍🏼
😂 that intro is gold
If you had the money 🤣🤣🤣
Brother I’m surprised you don’t have 6 canopies one for groceries one for beer one for the rubbish and one for fishing tackle lmfao bro your fly’n, but I love it, all the best to ya champ keep ‘em coming ol mate 👍
😂😂😂
Looks mint mate 👍
What a great setup
Extremely envious
Great view mate
only costs between 17-25 grand for tray and canopy
Looks the goods mate 👌👌
تصميم ماشالله ممتاز صراحه شي من الاخر👍👍👍✌️
Gday Ty, yeah mate I just bought a newish Nissan Nav 2018 with a jack off canopy, now I gotta deck it out for diving, prospecting and just general camping.
I would chain the canopy to the carport though, have heard of canopies dissappearing.
Cheers
Brad
Tough as nails💪🏻
Wait.... I mean.... hahahaha, funny as.Truck looks sick without the canopy as well. The tray rails and tie down hooks are awesome. Keep the vids coming Ty, nice one. 👍
😂👍🏼
Is it easy to back under the canopy all lined up? Nice video!
Nice stuff
Nice one Ty. Looks good both ways. 🇳🇿😎👍
Yeah I think so to Phil ! Stay safe during this shit storm mate 🙏🏼
@@TyFenwick yes already for my 4 week isolation been practicing. Piece of cake lol
It’s great
Looks the business as a bare tray!
very nice.
On a side note if you were worried about the canopy falling in high wind or the kids running around it you could use half a dozen ratchet straps to make crosses between each leg.
Yeah good idea Shane ! I might do that 😎🤘🏼
@@TyFenwick You should just lower the canopy lower to the ground it wont flex as much potentially.
Should of done a re mounting video of the canopy to the tray. I wonder how fidgety it is getting it lined up and back on. For example, lifting the canopy off and leaving it at the beach camp while going for a 4by minus the weight in the rear. Id imagine lining it all up to remount would be a pita?
Easy as to line it back up actually, you just bring it back down drop bolts in good to go. It blew me away how easily it lines up
Should have the canopy in 2 pieces dogbox for everyday with the removable camping one on the back
hey mate,
this is awesome, I have a cheap canopy I got that doesn't have lift off points, however I am looking into adding some by drilling the canopy and adding in the aluminium tubing and altering some normal lift off legs.
There is just a couple things I need to know to do it.
I was wondering if you could be a massive help to me with two measurements?
I am curious what the width of the frame or sides, (Pillars next to the canopy door) is?
Also if possible what the inner diameter of the jack off holes is?
Thanks man!
First one in! Time to crack a coldie an enjoy 👌🏼
🤣👍🏼🍻
I think its easier to have 2 trucks. Nice setup.
Hey mate. Excellent video as always.
How are those stedi lights you’ve got mounted on the headboard above your fuel filler? Is the angle mount for them enough to shine the light down rather than in your eyes??
Yeah there a sweet little light the angle bracket works well, I put them on there to just give me some side light when the canopy’s not on or if I’m fueling the truck up etc.
Would love a RAM but nowhere to park it in suburban areas in Australia lol
Hi even me it's the first time seen canopy of tray well done nice truck and canopy .
For when fitting back the canopy can they add like a small pin so will be easy to fit back . Everything need money .
Personally I like the bolts, there no real way to hold the canopy down tight with pins.
Looks bloody mint with and without 👌👌 I have a ranger raptor just so confused wether to do it or not
I think a raptor would look sick with it done right and if you can kept it light weight 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼
Ty Fenwick yes totally agree mate , I want it to follow the bulk of the car and not to excessive also weight is a big thing but will see how we go might have to go with a tjm canopy for now
How's it - which company did you use to design your tray
Killer truck..👏👏👏. Canopy off now, now where do you keep your spare wheel?.... great video. Thank you ..... happy travels...
The spares go onto the head board 👍🏼
I love the look. Ty any idea what your tray weighs and what the canopy empty weighs? Cheers!
If you’re located in Australia give Mits Alloy a call, those guys can give you all the weight specs for different canopy’s 😁👍🏼
love the setup with Mits alloy Canopy and tray. Looking at similar myself. Curious to know what your roof top camper is...Cheers Col
My roof top tent is from the bush company, many videos on that on my channel
What i mean when fitting back the canopy like a guide fitting canopy on tray then you tied the bolts.
Ahh I got ya ! Lining it up is easy with the legs and bolts.
Hey mate, such a cool set up very well thought about with the tie down tracks and the spare wheel mounts on the head board 👍 did you lower the legs down with the canopy on to see how sturdy it was? Would you get up in the tent?
Hey mate, na I didn’t lower it down. Yeah you could get in tent with it lower and if you put straps on the legs I’d say
mint rig mate!!, only just noticed you still running the grandpa side runners You looking at anything? just noticed it is one of the only stock things and doesnt fit the look of the truck but still looks good
Yeah mate I did take them off ages ago but I’ve got a shit lower back and it’s became painful getting in and out of the truck, so I put them back on. I’m looking to do something there in the future 😁👍🏼
Hi Fenwick love the setup it amazing probably add a solar panel to it as well I think you do but I missed it
A query though
one of my friends was deciding to get a ford crown Victoria or Chevy caprice, are you familiar with the process of importing one Mate ?
I mean has anyone ever done it
Would love to hear from you on this
Nice truck
Hey mate,
Yeah running solar panel on the roof on the RTT.
With importing old vehicles I don’t have any experience unfortunately. My F250 was imported by a company not myself.
Ive imported an evo from japan before. Go through an importing company. Dont do it yourself it will be way to expensive. A rough cost break down of the process. You have to pay the costs off in installments as each process is undertaken.
The evo itself 11 grand aus $
To have it shipped over, all the illegal bits stripped off it to aussie adr compliance, new tyres then passing it over the pits inspection and registering it ect was about 13 grand aus $.
The one risk with importing a vehicle is you dont actually know what your getting, i did it through a company who has an agent in japan that goes to a car auction, they then took photos of the available car and then this gets forwarded on to you that fit into the budget you previously stated you are willing to spend. They class the vehicles a different rating 1 being poor and 5 being immaculate i got a 3/4 rated evo. They sent pics of the car and also the seats inside and also any lil minor cosmetic damage that maybe be on the vehicle then they tell you you only have x amount of time to put a bid in yes or no. Its then up to u to decide whether u want it or not. The risk you take is you dont know what ur getting. So need to budget a few grand to allow for repairs. My evo needed new brake pads and rotors and 4 new tyres, cause u purchase it as is warts and all.
That is my experience with importing a vehicle into the country. I got an evo 6 for about 22k aussie dollars which wasnt too bad but it was kinda risky as i didnt know what i was getting. Not sure what its like getting it from america probably the same kinda process.
Hi Ty love the vids can you tell me what the whole setup weigh? Are you over gvm? Can you post a vid maybe ragrding the F250 gvm and the gvm of your truck when loaded? Tx mate keep up the good work
Still working on those numbers mate, I’ll be doing video soon on that
hi mate looks tough as love it what are the rails and tie down point rated at could they hold a quad or a polaris of some sort
I’m unsure what they are rated to but no doubt you could hold down a quad or UTV 👍🏼 no problem !
Does the drill have enough torque to finish raising canopy off, or do you need to use the manual winder?
I like to just do it manually mate.
Hey Ty, ended up ordering a Mits and put yourself down as my referral. Is there any reason you didn't add the sideboards for when the canopy is lifted off? Assuming they would just screw into those small screw holes on the sides and rear.
Awesome man !!! I didn’t really need side boards as I just tie things off. I was never going to have loose things on the tray. 😎🤙🏼
Curious on 2 things. Can you get a tray clamp system for this canopy brand to save unbolting, and has using the drill ever caused stress or wear issues for the mitre gears inside the head of the legs ? Looks like a neat solid setup. I sell this kind of stuff myself :)
Everything has been sweet mate, the bolts are way more secure and are fast to remove 🤙🏼
Hi mate
Thanks for the vid.
Seriously considering a mits canopy.
Just wondering what they weigh empty and do you get any water or dust in it?
Thanks again
Mick
Hey mick !
On CZcams 4wd24/7 have a run down on those thing with mits all weights etc.
My canopy has been awesome no dust at all and I drive 8k dirt road everyday 🤘🏼
Hi Ty, can you tell me a bit about your kitchen setup, where can i look it up, thankmate, love your work 😉
The drop down kitchen is made by Clearview mate. www.clearviewaccessories.com.au/
Ty Fenwick thank you
Can you still use your lights that are on your headboard with the canopy off?
Yep 👍🏼
How hard was it to line up to get the canopy back on?
Easy as with the bit of movement in the legs not hard at all
Do you think you would put some wheels on legs and then you can wheel it around?
Yeah ya could possibly. I don’t take the canopy off much however
is there a tank in the bottom half of that headboard?
No Andrew my water tank is under the tray. You can opt for a tank in that location but from mits 😁👍🏼
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
How much is a canopy and tray setup like that with nothing else, looking at doing this to a 79 series
Give the guys a Mits a call mate
Where can that tie down track be purchased from ?
I think ARB do sell a version of it or on eBay search aircraft track
Truck still looks great man without the canopy on there! What’s it ride like now without it on? My car is rough without haha, also have you ran into any problems with your RTT yet?
Haha thanks ash ! Yeah they really hate having no weight on them, but bouncy but I’m going to fill my water tank full as 120kg to the rear end.
Long range tank coming soon as well so I can have it full that might be another 80kg.
Stay safe during this time mate !
No RTT problems yet mate, I love the Bush Company tent. I’m doing a review on it soon. 👌🏼
Ty Fenwick looking forward to the videos!!
Stay safe down that way 👌🏼
Will do brother 💪🏼
When u put the canopy back on how to know when to stop reversing
Not much room for error reversing might need miss's if she is around!
Check to see if those bolts are high tensile?? They look like 8.8 standard duty not very strong. Maybe add another 2 or 4 bolts. It’s a lot of weight to hold. Most ute alloy trays are at least 6 and don’t have the consistent load. Just a thought but still looks the goods.
Awesome mate👌 . Where can I get your canopy?
www.mitsalloy.com.au
What kind of truck is this? F250??
Yep F250
What kind of CAT equipment do you have? Or just a fan?
Ive been an ambassador for CAT workwear since 2014 but been in earthmoving since high school. D6k is the only Cat machine I currently have.
Ty Fenwick would be cool to see some content of what you use that beast for! I myself have a pair of Backhoe 416E & 416F2
What kinda Ute is that?
Ford F-250 👍🏻
I think it likes pretty sharp
Hey ty what do u think of the little stedi light on the side on the tray?
There sick Trav ! Love em, I have them there for refueling at night or to light up the track I’m driving. Awesome little lights 🤙🏼
Ty Fenwick I am thinking about using them as rock light
Ive been trying to get a rough price of these canopy’s.
Are you in Australia ?
Ty Fenwick yeah in on the Gold Coast Queensland
2020 BT50.
It'd definitely go a bit better now without the weight off it eh?😉
Yeah smokes the wheels lol 😂
Cheaper brand, then you could have 2 canopies?!🤔😀
Might have 12 after they crack and fail my punishment tests 😂 MITS are well over engineered 🤙🏼
@@TyFenwick 🤣🤣🤣
You're not defusing a bomb cnt, just get it done
Calm down jock 😂
A lot of irony in spending that much money to go out into the bush and sleep in a tent, or you could have a second hand offroad van for the same money... doesn't make any sense. You can't even load it up with firewood etc, could only imagine it would make it a lot scarier trying to climb some of the wilder grades too
