Adam (bagelsjustbagels) Build Thread - '05 V8 4Runner!

[bagelsjustbagels]

I went camping to test the drawers. some adjustments & finishing touches needed and dual battery still needs to be put in.

Enjoy!

Very nice set up you have there. Like the bug cage.

Let me guess, up in Bowman area?

Amazing rig. Love the drawers setup!

Looks Great man! Good inspiration. I am looking to pickup my first 4runner, as I also have discovered that it is the vehicle that best fits my needs. Keep up the great build!

Hey guys, two quick updates.

Drawers are now awaiting some nice weather for a final sand and seal/monstaliner, and the dual battery just needs the final wiring. Higher quality pics will be in the future!

One that's completed I'll be putting these into a CAD model and then looking to see community interest on blue prints versus built drawers. and then hopefully expending to other vehicles as well.

How did you like the Monstaliner? I've wanted to do the whole exterior of my 4runner in it.

Super pumped to see the final pics man!

These things are gorgeous! count me in for either pre-cut pieces w/ DIY assembly, or the Blueprints. Whatever option you end up going with- these are very well thought out, and meets the needs for a lot of people. Looking forward to getting a set of these in my 5th gen.

No need for legs, 500lb sliders.

And thats the plan in the future. either prebuilt drawers much cheaper than the Market, and then just let people do the final touches and finish them the way they want....

OR, selling a "blue print kit" with cut instructions and how to etc...

But I don't want this for some huge profit, (people are selling drawer set ups for 5k! :crybaby So i'm looking to see exactly what the community wants, and then going from there.

I think if I can find someone to do the CNC cutting for cheap, and I do orders in bulk, we can cut down costs for everyone and make it a win win.... but we'll see

 

[bagelsjustbagels]

The 5th gen would be different due to mounting point, space, size, etc. (I assume) So just a heads up. but at least blue print could serve as a starting point.

I found a solution to the fridge slide rattle. Used adhesive backed Felt (the soft part of velco), and stuck it to the track at the point where the wheels sit while the fridge is in "transport mode".

This solved the problem. This week I will be creating an exact CAD of my design, and will then be sharing with the community

This way people can build their own or adapt it to their needs.

Here it is all closed up.

That is awesome! I absolutely love how your drawer setup turned out!

 

[daPitbull]

Awesome man been meaning to redo my set up and this is great. Patiently waiting your CAD plans.

Great job! That looks awesome and nicely done. Really like that cooking setup, I'm gonna have to do something like that.

I remember meeting you at the Foster City meet last year, hope all is well! If we plan another GTG you'll need to see them in person.
