ABOUT ME I grew up in a cabinet shop and was a born to be woodworker. In the past few years when work slowed in the custom cabinet industry I converted a few friends Vans and SUV's so they had more storage for adventuring, work, or just the weekend beach getaway. Before I knew it I had my own business making people's ideas come to life. I design and build all kinds of custom wood work and vehicles here at my shop in Huntington Beach, California! Please email me solidwoodworx@gmail.com for more information. - Jak na to + styl
Best Subaru camper conversion I've seen. Thumbs way up.
Right!!
It's nice; however, the added weight.
Is it within the vehicle's registered cargo weight!?
Is the suspension upgraded!?
Is a transmission cooler (if automatic) required on this model!?
Upgraded brakes for stopping!?
Tire ratings!?
Etc.
Will this vehicle tow a trailer or even have a 2 inch reciever basket!?
The vehicle may do fine on flat roads. But add hills, road conditions like snow or mud, even the slightest off road use... and problems may occur.
Just say as an extreme overlander, these are things many forget to consider.
@@AnthonyRMaradin what exactly is an "extreme overlander" I don't think that this setup is anywhere hindering the vehicle. If it was sagging or something then I'd be concerned but they will be good.
@@AnthonyRMaradin 2015 and newer models load weight capacity is 2700 lbs, this is well within the specs of its reach. I have a 2 inch receiver and two a 1600 camper and full car load on mine with no issues.
@@michaelwalker9229 - You do not understand vehicle weight restrictions - which is one of many points I made. There is towing capacity, receiver weight and what the vehicle can carry inside. Finally, I simply shared things most people fail to consider. Feel free to have the last word.
If you'd like Sean to make a "One Year Later" video with likes, dislikes and what she would do different, thumbs up this comment.
I can ask her and she if shes up to it.
@@SolidWoodWorx I subbed just in case it works out! Awesome work on this one.
Solid Wood Worx I’m trying to do something simple like this to my Scion tC have you done anything like that with a tc or anything at all with a tc? Or could you give me some ideas?
I’ve been thinking on this for a couple of years. After reading the other comment here regarding weight, my decision to utilize carbon fiber is solidified. It will not require me to upgrade components on the vehicle. The cost will be a wash in comparison.
@@josephhuffstetler6569 Just start sleeping in your car on a regular basis and ideas will start coming to you.
Mainly what you need to live and where you want to store everything.
I am blown away by how much room and storage you can fit in that car. Just amazing.
Her idea of using spare tire space, plus ALL that flexible storage/sleeping space you found in a WAGON - combined genius! Subscribed, hooked, addicted...
this is the most Oregon thing we've ever seen
@Jake Sangria bahahaha
All those successful, highly educated, high tech employees do no good for America.
I'm being sarcastic. Look up the word.
@@johnmca5643 They are great. The governments they elect sucks.
A very practical design & build for the limited size of the vehicle. Thumbs up to everyone involved.
I drive a Santa Fe and have been watching van build videos for the last year looking forward to the day when I can get a van. I'm so glad people like this guy are also on CZcams. I realize now that there's plenty I can do with my Santa Fe so I don't have to wait or spend money on a van. I've already got some ideas that I'm going to try out.
A rooftop roll-out annex would compliment this perfectly. I have a custom 4m x 3m on my 2005 outback and use it every time I go camping and love it!
You are becoming the big dog in custom camper conversions. Im thinking of lifting my toyota sienna mini van and your skills might be of service!
I'd like to see if that happens! I have a Sienna as well.
This is kickass! I am using a legacy and was wondering about taking the back seats out, I'm happy to see how well it works! Thanks for the awesome video
Brian, Wow that was impressive use of space! Great job! Solar too!
Very clever build. You should be proud of that one, I am impressed. When you walked around to show the water I was expecting an above rack outdoor shower with her outdoor lifestyle. Thinking about pulling out the tank-corner was smart, It surprised me, I would have had to make that one...after the build, lol, Thanks for letting me see it! I’d say keep up the good work, but with your talent... I think, you don’t have a choice!
Brian, I am so amazed at your talent and skill! Really great build! Thanks for sharing!
Wowzer. You rock, Brian!
This is a very cool conversion. Well done, guys. All the best on your climbing trip.
Omg, I love this and how you executed her ideas so perfectly!!
Hands down THE BEST suv camper setup of all the ones I've seen. Only thing I wish were added were a tap w/ pump for doing dishes and showering when necessary
Wow, superb job! I have a 2004 Forester, this set-up will be perfect.
Awesome build, I am getting ready to start a new chapter in my life and you may have answered all of my questions with 1 video...awesome!
Really cool! Tonssss of storage there👍 I love my build, but this seems like another great option.
I have built out my Hyundai Tucson in much the same way. The mattress to get is the Exped Megamat 10. It rolls up to not much if you need to transport something in the sleeping space. It's also incredibly comfortable and holds its shape and air like you wouldn't believe.
well done! cool to see an outback conversion
Love the build! I'm on my 4th version of outfitting my 2001 Ford Explorer Sport. My third build was done by my son in law who is a finishing carpenter .. so we built all the cabinetry like you did. And where is it now? On the garage floor. I built a place where there was almost no room left for me! LOL Now I have my bed and that is a raised deck to level me out but has storage under it. Now all my cooking gear and food go into a 'larder' that I can remove and it becomes my seat outside and cooking area too. All my clothing now goes into stuff sacks that can be compressed .. the sacks are also waterproof. Now for sleeping or just relaxing I have way more room .. when I pack up, the big Plano plastic box has wheels on one end and I lift it in and strap in down .. all hard items in my rig are secured. Hope you don't take offense that I may be 'dissing' you work .. it is gorgeous .. just saying what I ended up doing.
Awesome build. Love all the sliding storage areas.
I'm honestly pretty impressed for such a small space!
I have the same car and have wondered about sleeping in it and this was great - thanks.
Awesome job! Thanks for sharing, I live in my Subaru forested and hope to do similar build.
Wow! This is amazing. I’m looking for a minivan to take long trips in. Wish I could afford something like this. I absolutely love it. You do stellar work.
Dude such a sick build!!!
Great work! I assume she’ll be sealing and finishing all the wood surfaces. Excellent use of space and approach to the layout--it’s a really small car interior, so you did a terrific job of meeting all her needs.
Great video and fun to see a Subaru Outback built out like that for long term trips. Have fun on the trip and thanks for sharing.
Wow! I have a minivan that I can use some of these ideas to build. Thank you! Excellent!
Love this! One of the more creative builds I've seen to date.
...nice work Solid Wood Worx,
way to go Shaun🧗🏼♀️
I'm seriously thinking about a build like this for my 2016 Kia Soul. Awesome build and video. Thanks!
A thing of beauty & practicality!
I love my Subaru, and I love this build!!! Fabulous!!!!!
I absolutely love this build out. Great job!!!!!
Great job bro. It's amazing exactly what you can squeeze into an outback. Perfect...
Too freaking cool, I'm going to try something like this with my volvo. Great video...thanks
I remember when this video came out. Hope it hits a million views!
Thanks for the link to the 50" drawer slides on Amazon.
Who cares
Really quality work my friend. Add some access to the cabinet space from the left back/passenger door and you can grab items from outside the vehicle when you need them in a hurry after getting out of the drivers seat. That and some coat hooks for your puffy/misc. clothes on that 45 degree section above the water tank. That’s how I rigged “the garage” on my minivan buildout and it is a dream. Rain coat/puffy are right there after you hop out of the drivers seat depending on weather. Not to mention my rack and haul bags. 👍
Also, using a Kreg jig on 1/2” ply worked well throughout on my rig, you’d be surprised how sturdy that stuff is on edge or even over a 2’ span when laid flat. Again awesome attention to detail and quality work brother! 👍
Thanks for the tour.
Just built how the customer wanted mate. Yup pocket holes are the best used many on this job.
Phenomenal build - brilliant use of the space!
Jonathan Spence tddg
You guys did a great job maximizing the space!!
Unique design this is genius congratulations on your adventures this young man and his team did an incredible job Many blessings to you all
This is the first subaru conversion I've seen that utilizes the space in the spare tire well. Thank you! It annoys me so much when folks just cover it up lol.
one of the best camper builds i have seen. i would have hidden the cabinet hinges personally. i love this great design.
Great job on the design and build. Tight area to work with on an a Outback. Well done.
Thanks for the ideas .
Your builds are getting better and more creative, nice work!
I would agree that you might want to clear coat w a durable finish to prevent moisture issues ..
Still awesome use of space 👍
Nice build. Thanks for sharing.
Great video. Cool to see your interaction with clients. Awesome build. 👏
Dude!!! This thing is awesome!! Gives me so many ideas of what I want my Subaru to become! I love Subaru’s so much, and I plan to mimic this design to my own best abilities
There are many things to consider before building out any rig. Weight rating of a vehicle, suspension, transmission, tires, brakes, where will it be driven, etc. This is based on longevity of the vehicle, safety for self and others, legality and insurance, etc. Just saying.
This is awesome. Thank you!
Woow .... one of the best car conversion I have seen so far ..... congrats ... she gonna have a lot of fun 👍👍
I Love What You Did Here You Are Both Genius!
You guys do great work. Super clean simple details. Awesome. Gave me some good ideas.
I have a crush on this guy and his amazing talent. ❤️❤️
Nice work as always my friend! Your work never disappoints.
That's a very good build.. very practical setup, nice design to make everything work
I WANT TO SOO DO THIS ON MY FORESTER..
THANKS FOR THE INSPIRATION!
This is perfect. I want it for my jeep!
Nice build. Thank you for the video.
I LOVE this - gives me hope!
This is perfect for stealth camping. Seems a bit heavy but maybe not. Also love the solar idea. I plan to trick out my next subie in the near future as well. Nice clean build though.
Beautiful work, best I’ve seen on CZcams.
Would LOVE this exact setup in my 2019 4runner! (alternate place for battery though) Wish you were in Tx! Great work. Awesome finished product! PVC on her roof rack would have been great for water storage..Would love plans..
That is amazing!! What a great use of space.
Amazing setup, great use of the space. Well done!! :)
I just ordered an Outback and I already want this.
Would you mind to review your Outback please?
I'm looking one for this spring.
This conversion is amazing.
Wow!! Super impressed !!👍👍👍👍
Really cool 😎. Have an amazing weekend, Andreas 🇸🇪
WATERTANK is going to be heavy to manibulate other than for mending. Consider a pump and hose (or funnle). Otherwise truely excellent sample of execution(elegant efficiancy) (Mention perhaps that the type and thickness of wood can double the weight fast...)
Really nicely and simply done...the way it should be
Looks amazing and got so many good ideas from it! Thanks for the video!
This is awesome! I want you guys to build my Forester out!
Thats an awesome setup! Need this in Australia
excellent design!...thanks for the tour....c
Need one like this on my Honda Od. Great job.
The best n genius use of space..
Very cool design. It’s amazing that you can stay under the weight rating using wood instead of some type of synthetic material.
This is the best build I have saw. I have a small camper, but your idea seems so much easier
That's a great set up! Really nice work. I've been thinking about doing something similar in a smaller vehicle and I think this just inspired me to go from thinking about it to actually doing it.
I could see myself with that setup.
Well done. Looks like you may of had a fun time building something out of the ordinary.
Very cool setup! I bet she’s going to get many years of adventures out of this rig.
literally going to use this as a model for my crosstrek build out
Been thinking of getting an Outback, definitely need to get one and do this! Great build out guys!
Barb R they’re great cars. I absolutely love mine. I owned a 1999 Legacy GT 2.5 previously. Didn’t hesitate to look for another Subaru a few years ago when I needed to replace the Legacy. The Outback has been a great choice.
Beware the dreaded and common head gasket leaks
I would mount the solar panel towards the front of the roof rack.
Having it angled upward like that is creating lift and a force trying to pull it off rather then pushing it down.
The organizer is amazing.
Ya we did end up moving it around!
wow! this is amazing... congrats on the work guys!
Nice 👍🏿 work. Thanks for sharing 😎
This is amazing.
Wow, that is the coolest and most efficient SUV build out ever! Amazing job. You need to sell the blueprints to folks who want to DIY
It was really intricate but next oen i might try to make something simpler
Wow......this is so clever, wow. Love it.
Brilliant build. Love it.
Awesome! I live off my Subaru and I have the cheap version of that! Lol
awesome build! i think it would be good to have a door on the other side of that storage so you don't have to walk around to the other side of your vehicle if you forget something. you could just put a sliding door lock on that side so it doesn't come open when you put stuff in it. i'm referring to 4:17 of the video.
Fantastic. I love this!
Brian your builds are always great bro !
