The drawers look great. I need to get around to making some.
How's the back up camera position working now that you've gotten some time to use it?

I think it would be much better without the tire carrier. But to be honest. I think it's great even with the tire carrier. The camera has good wide angle. The CB antenna gives me good view of where the corner of the truck is. And I can tell how close I am to something because I can see above te tire carrier. So I like it. At night it's not so good. Probably because it lacks not being close to brake lights But the rear led bar fixes that in the woods. In the parking lots the street lights help out. It's a pioneer rear view camera.
Lol yeah probably. I am really glad how it all came out. Everything is nicely done and hidden.
Sound logic. However, it's great for us new-comers looking for ideas and tips! It's often daunting going through this great backlog of threads, finding that perfect detail or inspiration makes it worth the search. Thanks for the updates!

When I started reading this thread recently, it was a thread from over three years ago. It may take a while to get responses, but it is still good pictures and info for a guy three years from now.
This is all cool stuff, but I am intrigued by the plywood table under the right drawer. Does it store elsewhere, then just shove in there when needed? I want a fold out table, I miss having one.
So I didn't want to add another sliders for the table because I'd loose height on the storage drawers. So.... the actual table lenght can be 34". Same as the storage drawers. And it's perfectly fine to store the table there. Because it's out of the way and nicely under everything. I didn't want to throw away good space. Now the table is just a demonstration. To show you that you can make a custom cutting board. And just attach like a string. So you can easily pull it out. And leverage will hold it up. Or... you can put it on top of the storage drawer like if you slide out the drawer, and lay the table on top of it. Once done, you slide the table back under. And you can make the other side, like a working bench. Again, slide out your plywood. Open your draw and set the wood on top.

I like how the table part can be stored on top of the drawer, or under it. It will be nice to have it higher up on top of the drawer for making sandwiches or fixin' on something. Most of the time though it could be secured below the drawer, so it wont be in the way when you want to get stuff out of the drawer. The table top piece should be make out of nicer wood then plywood though, just for presentations sake.

Hi everyone. Been a while since I updated my thread. Nothing crazy. Not going to go into details just going to share some photos.
Since I had a thick gauge positive wire coming from battery to the back for bussmann relay box. I just used the same positive wire for the ARB compressor.

Wired a USB outlet. The Outlet to the left is a constant 10g positive outlet for fridge. Also, since I don't have rear heat. I removed the the switch for it. And replaced it with a simple on/off rocker switch that turns on and off the usb outlet. I like my outlets to be able to work without ignition thus the switch.
New transmission mount
Blueridgeoverland tool organizer with Atlas46 mechanic tool organizer. The blueridge one has small items, the atlas46 has big stuff. Absolutely love both. However, the blueridge is small. And you'll never be able to fit wrenches. They need to make one that is wider.
Reorganized the drawer. The blueridge now fits perfectly in the drawer.
Limited edition factor55.

Awesome bag right here by ARB for recovery stuff. Holds my 20ft strap along with tree saver, shackles. and winch dampener and some other stuff.
She's a little dirty.
I think by end of 2019 I might get a set of kings with remote reservoirs and adjusters. No issues with the ICON. I think my rear shocks might be a little to long, even though I went with toytec boss reare shock measurement. So probably going to sell my icons cdc and swap to kings.
