Hi! My name is Javi Lee, I like to build stuff and save money. Join me as I try to do things on a budget and potentially spend more than if I just bought the thing new to begin with.

I finally check off a longtime wish-list item for my truck by getting a winch installed! This AMP'd up LLC winch tray only weighs 27lbs by itself so it's extremely lightweight and still uses the original bumper of the truck.

How to Install Roof Rack Storage on a Budget - Harbor Freight Apache Case
Did you notice much of a difference? Did it pull better? Thanks!
Can you share a link to your roof rack components? Super cool vid btw
Nice install! Quick tip to try in the future. Slide your t bolts in on the rack wherever you want them first, put a dot of paint or nail polish on the tip of each bolt facing upwards and lightly set the cargo box on them. It’ll mark perfectly where you need to drill your four holes, a lot quicker than measuring everything.
Can you do a video showing how to remove and replace the a/c pressure switch (Low side) on a 4x4 Tacoma 2014?
Mine is currently working fine, if it breaks soon I'll make a video on replacing it!
Nice job. Mine arrives tomorrow. Good job explaining everything
Where did you buy the winch mount?
Any difference s if you run the cables from the controller (output) straight to the battery not to the fuse block?
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Excelente video.
Sorry ,schematic,,for a.above vehicle..
Really liked your approach,,how can i get a schemat fot install of frig for a 2020 ,toyota sienna ,xle,seats removed , my room on wheels,,please..
Please make more stealth camping , love this
Awesome! Good to find a video on something Ive been wanting to do on our apache case. good stuff!
Have you sprayed the inside of the box section with corrosion inhibitor? Wax oil? You can just spray the inside top of the box, because it will drip down, when it gets very hot! Very good build by the way :).
I used 550 cord
Excellent video!!! Can you give me his measurements? especially the merits of the frame?
Nice build. Very utilitarian, which is what you need. My only issue is getting my dog into the tent, or I'd get a roof tent in a heartbeat.
weld side ways better
Def ground to the battery man .
These are NOT real overlanding trailers
Why not?…what is the definition of a real overlanding trailer?
Why the shock absorber? Don't think I've seen anyone else do that. Results?
Sweet build! Now that you've used it a bit, what improvements would you make, if any?
Thanks for the quick and dirty review on this awning. I have to say the biggest thing about freestanding awnings that scares me (seeing all the horror story on the tube....) is how quickly it is for a huge wind gust to essentially mangle the entire thing beyond repair. That's a LOT of wing surface and a lot of cantilever force applied to that one articulation where all the arms stack up. IF I ever buy another one (did buy an ironman once and returned/sold it one hour later after installation and realized the backside would NOT cover my kitchen/hatch area of my truck) I would certainly advocate to ALWAYS drop the extra pole or at least put the guy lines down. $270 is a great price. Best of luck.
I agree with you, it just depends on the day/weather. Certain days in my driveway there's absolutely no wind so it's free standing. Every time I've taken it to the beach, even with mild wind I stake it down. It only takes 3 minutes to stake it down so it's worth it. If it's crazy windy I won't open it up, I'm familiar with the horror stories as well!
yep, and most of these lower priced awnings are REALLY weak at the joints and that's where they get messed up or break even in weaker winds.
Great project! The WaterWeld might be a bit overkill. Applying PVC glue to both the male and female parts of the pipe should prevent any leaks. This method is commonly used in building sprinkler systems, gutters, and perimeter drains.
Hey Javi, Can you clean my garage too, please?
Thanks for the video! I successfully installed one strut on the wheel side using the screws with no protrusions. There are solid plastic “feet” that make the sidewall much thicker. So far one strut does me just fine and I did 2 cases for $30
CPVC pipe is better than PVC . It can handle heat better. My 3” PVC Solar shower plastic stinks of plastic real bad after 3 years in Sun the pipe was really breaking down. Next one CPVC !
Great build, very understanding neighbours?
I tried not to be too loud with it!
Not only should those shock bolts to torqued *TIGHT* but also require use of lock nuts. The shock's bushing is designed to relieve the torsion stress. The bushing sleeves *MUST* be fastened secure and static.
You want the shock to rotate and since there's going to be some side-to-side movement of the axle, something needs to allow for that play. It could be the shock sliding on it's mounting bolt (or sleeve), but you're saying the bushing is designed to take that torsional load and deflect?
I'm considering a homemade rack for my roof that does NOT have channels or existing mounting holes. Did you use the spacers just to clear the channel grooves? On MY roof (no channels), would placing the angle iron directly on the roof give more surface area (contact) to distribute the load better? Of course, I'd have nuts beneath the roof. I appreciate your opinion. This is just a brainstorm at this point; so, no dreams dashed if you think it's a bad idea. ;-) Thanks!
Correct on the spacers, just used to clear the channel grooves. I think placing the angle iron directly on the roof would be a bad idea, any rubbing/moving will scratch and rust quickly. Could potentially make a rubber/silicone washer to keep metal off metal but I still wouldn't really recommend it.
What is the external product called, what type of material please?
Aluminum Composite Material, commonly called ACM.
I had a buddy get seriously injured making one of these. Lost one of his eyes, 4 teeth and broke his jaw over pressuring it and the butt cap blew off and smashed his face. It’s a great idea but just be careful pressurizing it
100%!! Pressure is no joke. Air leaks out at 15 PSI at both caps and my relief valve so I'm very comfortable with the design.
@@javilee98 definitely one of the better designs I’ve seen
If you could go back and do it again; would/could you have water welded the joints from the inside as you were assembling it as opposed to afterwards? Love the video and think what you have done is pretty rad!
I think I could've but it would've been more difficult. I never considered it until you mentioned it though.
Yeah, I was just thinking it might have looked a little sleeker if you had. Nice work 🤙🏼
Good video man, thanks!
Thank you!
Why did it leak? It should have welded plastic together...something was wrong with your glue for the PVC. I think most likely is that you applied the purple primer and let to too many pieces and it dried before you put them together. Everything needs to be wet when you push them together. Some teflon tape on threads might have sealed the screw on pieces.
I did it wet on one of the joints and it leaked as well, this DWV pipe doesn't have as tight of a fit as regular PVC. I also did Teflon tape on the threads but it's still leaking, not terrible enough to worry about it. Can still get up to 20ish PSI and plenty of pressure
When gluing a joint, hold it for about 15 seconds. If it backs out from the hydraulic pressure, you could have leak
I had the same issues with leaks. I used JB Weld which seems to help. Rather than use my big inflation pump, I bought a cheap Amazon adjustable pump for $23. You can set the pressure where you want it. Nice job on your mounts. I never thought about 3d printing something. I just used the extra large tie wraps.
Extra large tie wraps work too! Just watch for sun degradation over the years.
I am months away for starting my square build. I so appreciate your honest no bullshit approach.
Glad I could help, no BS was my exact goal.
When you mounted your topper rack, did you mount directly to topper or did you install rails ??
The topper had rails installed by the previous owner. I just mounted to the topper rails.
What would this be for a 5x10 with additional 2" deep tongue box so it would be a 5x12
Thinking of getting the Renogy MPPT controller to set up some solar on my taco. How’s it been running for you so far?
I've had 0 issues in nearly 2 years, I don't think the battery has ever dipped below 70% to be honest.
@@javilee98 nice! Sounds good man thank you for the video and info!
Thank you!
Body one tip remove level just spray w 40 came right off 👍 good video thanks
Do you have the plans for the frame?
Im doing this. Amazon has awesome heavy duty brackets for f250 and the top offset one. Itll let me make the lower shock 3-4” below axle to keep shock more upright. Its an always on the street cargo trailer so the lower ground clearance wont be an issue
Found the video of material
Ive been watching your channel and csmt seem to find what white material youvused to skin the trailer
What are the actual dimensions? (I haven't watched the whole series) Also, I live in SW Florida. Where did you buy the ACM panels?
I lived in the 2017 path - like you traveled to AR for this one (Twice) -- And coming to You in FL in 2045...but I may be too old to drive -- You might start saving money for going to Sydney AU in 2028. - I may be there for my Third. -- Glad you had a safe trip and thanks for taking us along. -- Your Drone Footage was great and special among the vlogs I've watched about this event. - Googled KY DOT and it looks like they contract out the removal and replacement of those 10 ft slabs as a way to repair (when they think it gets bad) - a contract I saw online gave a company 5 million to redo "slabs" in a 4 mile section on both sides. - wow. -- Since your Toyo is 4x4 (steep gravel driveway) -- make a reservation to see the NC Mountains in Summer or Fall. - $52 a night gets you a personal campsite with a flush toilet and hot shower - Can un-hook and explore the GSMNP about 10 miles away - maybe also explore some Forest Service land as well for future trips (for free). HIPCAMP.COM - search Holley's Wood Solo Site. Sorry, but the closest Disc Golf is a beginner course.
Thanks for this comment! I think for me I would've enjoyed the eclipse more with family or friends to experience it with. That slab repair is interesting, we don't have that in FL that I'm aware of, they just redo the surface. I'll also have to look into HipCamp, that could be a great tool to add for trip planning. I want to try to get to the mountains this summer/fall, get away from the FL heat!
Nice but I think I would have put struts on the outside so when you drill the screws the ugly is inside . But good idea
love your work
Thank you!
2 things I would add. I installed the exact same winch and ampd up mount as you did on my 05 Tundra on Easter weekend. First, the synthetic rope line doesn’t go into the hole on the winch roller, it’s too big. So we had to auger out the hole and also strip back some of the rope strands and then heat shrink the end. Kind of a pain. Apparently the rope line that Harbor Freight sells is for the more expensive Apex winch so that’s why it doesn’t fit right. Second, I bought the $40 cordless winch remote and it works great. I just put the remote in my center console. Outside of that it was a fairly easy and straight forward install and that ampd up mount made it easy, it fits great. I had mine powder coated for $150. Nice video, very informative! :-)
Thank you! I bet it looks great powder coated.
Where did you order this from? I have a 06 Tundra
