  • Check this out - totally custom build into a Tommy canopy! Came to us as an empty shell...we fitted bar fridge, kitchen, 2 storage cupboards, 5 storage drawers, 2 x 125 Safiery LITHIUM batteries, 3 x Redarc 150W solar panels, 2 x Scirocco wall fans, water pump, heaps of power outlets and lights. Brilliant build - heaps of fun :)

    All looks very neat but I think the aluminum fit out from Tommy Campers would be lighter and it also looks great and is very practical, we've just ordered the S6 (larger) version.

    Very smart build - I particularly like the weight saving by minimising the use of metal drawer slides and using lots of open cupboards.

    I recently wasted 16,000 on a fit out. ...should have come to you guys yr workmanship, knowledge, skills is second to none...you could teach this other lot how its suppose to be done...

    Beechy... I think you have discovered Luke’s next development/reiteration of the WUHT. There is definitely a market for tray tops and many on the market aren’t as good as that. I recon if you adapted the Drifta RTT, integrated a 270 degree awning, swap the bar fridge for a drop slide arrangement but basically stick the the rest, including the rear seat option, you’d be on a winner.

    i like how you used 1/2 conduit saddles and tent poles for the table that is a clever idea....awsome fitout

    From another BT owner, very epic fitout indeed Beechy!
    What a fabulous use of literally all available space.
    Love that pop out step/mini table.
    Just one little worry and I feel that the fuse box should be covered up so the bored puppy doesn't get stuck in to it, lol! Perhaps you just didn't show the cover, but that would be my recommendation.

    Great job Drifta, but I do worry about dual cab utes with rear axle overhang weight issues. Nothing to do with you guys though.

    A lot of thought has gone into making this custom tourer and the team has executed the ideas well.

    Great job and video! If it was mine I would want the inside bed area insect proof/screened especially from the two side doors. Cheers.

    Looks great with some innovative ideas as usual from the Drifta team. Have to say all this could have been fabricated in aluminium and the weight saving would be astronomical. Time for an experienced cad designer to join your team guys. Shoot me a message if you’re looking to go down this path.

    Cheers Mark, hope they have upgraded GVM,

      The Dual cab Tommy Camper Dry Weight is 320kg. + 150kg for the two 75L tanks. They'd still have 600kg + or - to play with.

    Nice build. With all the work done is the vehicle still under it's max GVM?

    • @1989cranston
      @1989cranston Před 5 lety

      Was thinking that aswell. Also thinking about removing the rear seats for the box out section. That's actually illegal in Australia to change the seating occupancy stated on the vehicles spec plate ( same plate that states GVM ), even if you are going down in the number of seats. I had no idea ages ago and tried to get my local 4wd installation place to build me something for the rear and they wouldn't touch it for those legal reasons. Weird that Beechy did in this video but then also made a cut out for the dog clips to go through to keep that part legal haha.

    • @cyclemoto8744
      @cyclemoto8744 Před 5 lety +2

      @@1989cranston Not sure about the other states but you can legally remove seats from Victorian registered vehicles. Refer to www.vicroads.vic.gov.au/registration/vehicle-modifications-and-defects/vehicle-modifications/removing-adding-and-replacing-seats

    • @steveallen1340
      @steveallen1340 Před 4 lety

      Cycle & Moto Thanks for posting the link, I was under the impression that removing seats required the car to be re-registered with the lower seat count. Appreciate that you linked to the official source.

    • @philg2468
      @philg2468 Před rokem

      A dual cab (not towing) has the usual 1000kg payload, so GVM is usually manageable, unlike the typical station wagon. Main issue is trying to get most of that weight forward of the rear axle.
      Removal of seats is fine in most states as long as the seatbelts remain installed and the seats are easily refitted with standard tools. There are a million 4wd station wagons out there with rear seats removed.

    Hi Beechy. Great build. Very impressive. What’s the brand of the shower en-suite? I want something similar roof mounted for my driver side on the cruiser. Do you have any product like that? Thanks. Mark.

      Will do Kaito. Thanks for replying. You were very lucky to travel with your dad and grandfather to the top of the cape a few weeks ago. Epic trip. The videos were great. I’m assuming you were doing the filming and editing. You have a real talent quite young. Credit to your hard working parents!! Have a great weekend.
