Car Camping / Trip Reports / Photos / Buildouts / “Overland” / Expedition Rigs Area (homeless?)

I just found his build thread over at expedition portal...

He's a real hands on guy and his truck is very impressive IMHO.

Here is the specific post on the cargo platform.

 

I like that too..but id want some type of legs on the top to help hold the weight to set anything on the back of it when its folded down. Don't want all the weigh tbeing supported by whats in the molle packs.

 

If you look closely at the finished pics on the platform build, he has some type of brace support bolted in so the board comes down and rests on it.

 

He fabricated some type of metal rack that bolts in and supports the weight. Good point though

 

thats awesome......

 

ahh yes. just went to his build. Very cool.

 

I have both options. Fridge goes in the box if I'm using the back seats, if I don't need the back seats, it goes in the cab out of the weather.

 

Wow, this stuff is great!! Thanks for the ideas.

 

This thread is awesome... have had my 2013 double cab for about 6 months now... we do a lot of fishing and camping here, definitely going the overland expedition route with my build (or lack there of at this point.) This thread makes me want to burn through all of my savings to get where you guys are Cool stuff!

 

What's that molle thing there?

 

Scroll back 1 page...

 

Sweet can't wait to see it come together.

 

thankyou! I'm probably going to do a build thread on it here soon

 

Let me know if you have any questions.

 

definitely thanks

 

Living vicariously through this thread. My taco was t-boned three weeks ago. Will be three more weeks till I get her back. $7k in damage. Lots of time to dream of mods......

 

just sharing some pics from camping last night with the family.

 

Those are some awesome rock formations and caves! Were you guys able to get up to them?
