Rebuilding the Overlander Rack: DONE... mostly....

I figured out a really cool way to mount my lights up here which would be cool. Got the bars mounted in the front, not in the back. Note weird how those u-bolts I took off it do not fit back on it. Hey Squatch Americans! Welcome to Terrific Tuesday. It's our special time to take you behind the scenes of Squatch America just for our loyal members. Well hello! Okay so it's been a week for you. It's been a day for me. So we're putting the truck back together and I ran down to the hardware store. Got some bolts and stuff and we're gonna bolt this thing back together and show you what we got. So to recap, I needed to replace these u-bolts because these aren't long enough. They were before but now they're not so I don't know. Well it's just weird. Won't go back where they came from. So get those put back up there. We're going to cut these off. We're going to take this apart. We're not going to use it anymore. I'm going to use the lid as a deck right here and we're going to put a couple packouts up there. They're coming later when I get my retirement check. So we get those. We're going to put the packouts up there. We're going to put the in in this box here we have our recovery stuff. You know all the tow straps and stuff like that and when those are going to go in the packouts up here and another packout is going to have our oil and stuff like that. Fluids that we need to replace stuff with in case we need it in the woods. Tent's going to have a little more room up here than it did before. So that's going to be nice and we're going to rewire this whole thing with lights and cameras. So I'll take you along for the ride and we'll get to work. Here we trip over stuff which are these. I'm going to get two more of these put them on top of that and then we can mount those pack up racks up there. So and the next thing we're going to do is I need a rack that we're going to hang from here across there and we're going to put a water tank the water tank up there and another super secret thing but it has to do with the tent and comfort. You can figure it out but we're going to have to order that and add that later but I have to plan for it so I got the measurements of that component and what we're going to do is we're going to hang this we're going to cut the top off this and we're going to hang these hang just this this part and we're going to take the back off it too and we're going to hang just this part here I might be able to leave the back on it we're going to hang that from here which means we have to move these back so the only there's wiring going in here but I think I can pull enough wire I've got extra wire in here for this wire and this wire that one I'm going to have to cut and just splice no biggie and then we can unbolt these slide them back a little bit probably about here and then bolt them back up so that's the next project and got to get on it it is the next day and yeah I'm wearing the same shirt because I don't want to get another one all messed up and it's hot though it's a little bit cooler today if you look chance of rain today slight chance of rain and the humidity is about 80 degrees 80 I mean today so at least the sun's not shining so it's not that hot we got a cool breeze so today we're going to try to get that mounted these boxes moved it is Tuesday this is day four I planned on doing it in like two days and it's now on number four because what the heck and I planned on reusing everything that we had which I am but it still costs about a hundred bucks worth of bolts which is crazy how expensive bolts are but we got it all taken care of so now we're going to get to work on moving those boxes and mounting this other box I guess you can call it so I'm going to do a little work on that and let's get her done I might set up the time lapse today and see how long it'll run so let's get to here to go across this thing and then it plugs in down here so now I got to do is mount the lights and run some wires to all these lights once I get them mounted so we'll have lights front back and both sides and then we will attach the sensors to the truck so we can have motion sensors that turn the lights on after I get everything in so we'll be right back well so my friends here we are it's back together so let's go over some of the details of what we got so let's start on the other side here so of course we got the rack back together we got the tent put back up here we have a flat platform right here which has the solar panel on it and that solar panel can flip up and all we have to do is remove that padlock and one on the other side and then this will flip up we can also pull the pins and the hinges here and then this can come off and I can set it anywhere I want and plug it in because you can unplug it from right here and I've got an I've got an extension cord I'm working on to to put onto that so we can move it anywhere we want which is tied into this box okay in here we have a little little rack to put our extension cords stuff like that on um underneath here we have the battery charger for the tools air compressor which comes out to here we have our redodo lithium battery plugged into our bus boards here inverter right here we got the switches that run all the lights right here and those are all on relays with fuses and then over here we have our water tank which if you look it's on that old rack that was on the roof is now hanging down from the rack in here so uh we've got the water tank here we got fuel and gas over there fuels for the truck and the gas is for the generator which is right here we have a water pump right here which hooks to the water tank which runs to this hose we just attach this and we can pull this hose out and we've got a shower in the woods awning right here and we've got our lights connected I'm going to show you that up here we have our antenna connected here for the trail cameras up here we have our driving lights that I can flip on from inside the truck and outside here I have got really nice wire looms and plugs for every one of the lights you got our fire extension we got lights on this side that for this side we got a in the back here for the back we got our ladder which is attaches up underneath here and then we've got our pull-out drawer I got all my tools we've got two bins under there it's got all the cooking and food we have a bin up front that has an inflatable kayak in the little bin up on the top way up here we have the all the recovery gear ropes and recovery ropes and straps and things like that we got our shower that folds out here this here is a rack actually these two bars and of course there's a couple under there up here we can place our clamshell tent which is over here and we use this for our studio for our YouTube channels when we're out camping which is all we do because we camp for a living that's our studio so you know the sun and then over here let me show you um of course the tent up here I strapped a little level here so it helps us to level it what you know before we get the tent flipped out in here this box I was able to attach it to the this rack and there's the diesel and the gas but this rack right here got that attached there got it locked inside there is our bathroom this has a grass carpet that we can put on the other side to put our chairs on and then over here we have a little carpet here for our shower and our toilet which consists of a five gallon bucket which is in this bag right here and a toilet seat that goes on it over here we have the antenna for the cell phone booster system which I haven't got wired yet so I'm still working on that I need to wait a little while get some money to finish that project and then in this box we have our all our oil and stuff we need I've got a saw for tree limbs to get them if they're across the road and in this bag right here in the camouflage bag we have the air hose that connects to air up stuff and our jack and lug wrenches and stuff so there it is back together I'm kind of pleased how it came out and I'm glad I took the time to do all the wire looming because it looks a lot nicer than it used to I still have another project to do where we're going to put motion sensors here on the side of the truck to trigger these lights at night when these lights at night yeah those lights at night so if something walks around the truck at night you know the lights will come on and give us a little heads up but other than that it is ready to go so ta-da so you keep watching we'll keep squatching and go out and that damn Sasquatch
