My son fell asleep on me and the remote is on the other couch with a 10 minute commercial playing! I hope you appreciate me Brad haha
LOL! Sorry man... I can't believe they play 10 minute commercials, that would bother me too. Hope your son got a good nap in!
😂😂
Hey Brad, great video with a ton of good information! Just wanted to thank you for your service to our country. Best wishes and keep pumping out the amazing content.
Much appreciated!
So true Brad. Knowing where everything is helps tremendously. I had my JL dialed in so nicely! Now Im trying to figure out what to do with my (new to me) LJ.
Just sent the link to the element 50 to a friend and he sent a link to this video back to me and said “Brad recommends it”, and I was like “yea dude, I just watched the video too!” thanks for the rad content B-rad 😎
I bought the tool bag a couple years ago after seeing it here. It is in the top 5 purchases I've made for my jeep and prob the most used. The Element fire extinguisher will probably be a hit as well. I'm really happy to get rid of the bottle on my roll bar. Thanks for profiling the solutions!
I absolutely love how the build is coming along. Great Job as usual
Storage and organization are some of the most important parts of heading out
Great timing! We did a week long trip over the holidays and realized we need to have a better storage system. There aren’t many options for the Grand Cherokee so I’ll be building my own. Really like the MOLLE system!
I think the molle system has a lot of potential for many folks
Hey Brad! I have that same molle panel! If you're driving solo, flip it around and it can be more accessible in the front pasanger seat. Be safe!
Been binge watching your videos, they are awesome man! Really love how you put together the overland videos! keep it up brother
Your videos are always so well done and informative. Thanks for sharing with us. 😊
Another great video, and good timing too. I'm trying to take advantage of the time and redo my storage setup. On an unrelated side note, I love how your videos end as soon as you're done. I don't have to sit through 40 seconds of blank screen until the video is over.
Thanks Brad! This is giving me tons of ideas for a platform storage system for my XJ!
The standard Yakima style roof box is so underrated.
Depends on the type of trails you do. I used to run a ‘ski box’ as I called it and ended up breaking it on a tight, tippy trail by hitting it into a tree
That’s probably what I’m gonna go with. You’ll be able to store way more things in there versus one of those plastic boxes.
We have a SportRack version. At 5'-7" I could just about use it as a RTT, lol. Joking aside, pretty cost effective dirty/wet storage.
Totally agree with you already weatherproof too
always great suggestions and options Brad!
Actually glad you bought a powerwagon.. ive already got my build planned for mine.. but always open to different ideas, cheers 🍻
Awesome I've been shopping around for those molle seat organizers not bad in price lot of options 😀
Great job Doc. The number of people that own molle is MUCH HIGHER than the number of people who know how to use it!
I was just online looking for storage solutions for my jeep. Perfect timing!
Perfect!
Legend. I love these kinds of videos.... always great new ideas pal
Murder Spork! I just ordered one. Man you give us so many great ideas!
Great video Brad. Love all the storage options
Right on!
I love the roam rugged cases
Thank you for putting out another great video Brad
My pleasure!
Some good information here Brad. Thanks!
Another great video! Glad you got the molle explanation right this time lol
Great timing! I need some bags for storing gear in a new 4runner! Thank you
I hope one day get my full jeep like you.and traveling around the world.
I enjoying watch your videos.
Good luck.
Peace.
Another great video. I got that Blue Ridge Overland tool bag after seeing your video a while back. Great bag. Most compact solution for the tools I carry vs anything else I tried and fits perfectly where I needed it to go. Excellent build quality as well.
My tool bag has been beaten and banged up and holding up so well... very impressed with it as well.
I am sure you know that Blue Ridge Overland is based in Bedford, VA as you have done business with them. In case you don't know, Bedford is home to the National D-Day Memorial. This small south western VA town, about 4 hours from DC , was chosen for this national memorial (which honors all allied forces) because the 23 men they lost in the Normandy campaign represented the largest per capita loss of life of any town in the U.S.
Great video. I carry a Milwaukee battery impact wrench and it is a beast. I guarantee you I am getting any lug nuts off when I need to, plus I carry a set of tourque sticks so I can set the right tourque for the lugs. I noticed in your garage you have one of those magnetic parts holder bowls, that is great to have in the field too so all the parts you take off are kept together. I was with a guy once changing an axle in a boulder field and he kept dropping parts that disappeared between the boulders never to be seen again.
Always benefit from your videos.... Keep treking!!!!
Vets know how to do it best. Great video!
Thank you for your service Marine!
Cornered Patriot he was in the navy
@@eutimiochavez415 The globe and anchor threw me.
Thanks nonetheless!
Awesome. The right way to store.mollee!!!
Nice video Doc!!!...nice 7th Comm BAS guidon. I was with 7th Comm MT in 1999-2001.
Great video Brad, love the look of those Roam boxes, unfortunately I can’t get them here in 🏴 England so can you stick one in the post, pretty please 😂😂😂
I like those little bags, with the straps..and name tags...good idea..
Brad thanks for the seatback storage solutions.
I'm glad you brought up the Power Wagon. I've been trying to figure out what I'm going to do with a oversized spare tire. Hoping you wind up covering that as anything bigger than a 35 doesn't fit in the factory location.
Brad I see that you were a corpsmen, could you please tell us more about that part of your life. Just think that you are very proud of that part of your life. Thanks for all the show's.
Nice solution!👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I had no idea you are a Retired Master Chief. Outstanding. DC2 here - hoorah!
Like you I have to keep everything organized. I think that this comes from our medical backgrounds where our medical bags, cabinets (ER especially) and ambulance interiors are well organized. I have the OneTigris molle panel to organize my pouches on the passenger seat back which is essentially my headboard when I sleep in the Jeep SUV. On the back of the driver's seat is a large Mossy Oak backpack, about 55 liters, filled with extra warm layers: fleece jackets, rain gear, gloves, extra socks, wool watch caps, balaclava, neck gaiters, merino wool under layers and an XL reflective vest and reflective wrist bands. My fire extinguisher is stored in a long molle pouch on the door side of the backpack. All of the necessary gear I need are stored in two Doublez trunk organizers with four separate compartments: (1) cooler, water bottles (one is insulated) (2) stove and other kitchen paraphernalia (3) hammock, tarp, underquilt, top quilt, other accessories, a OneTigris Bungalow 2.0 tent and (4) extra wool blanket, military poncho, woobie, alpaca wool bag liner and a Helikon Tex Swagman Roll. Cargo nets came with the each Doublez organizer to prevent items from flying out. Each organizer has side pockets to place gear such as knives, sling shot, ammo, multitool, fire kits, etc. If I take my refrigerator and Jackery, they will go on the pax seat and floor. I converted an old CPAP bag into a trauma kit. I have a cargo basket on the roof with a waterproof, supposedly, cargo bag and that's where I'll pack a Mr. Buddy Heater, a tent cot, extraction kit and a 6X10 Jeep awning with tent poles. The shovel and and recovery boards are mounted on the sides of the cargo basket. Survival tools, kits, ax, Silky saws and a collapsible snow shovel are in the spare tire well. A headlamp is wrapped around each head restraint of the front seats. I carry a yoga mat for under carriage maintenance and ensure the Hokena (magnetic) emergency flashers are mounted on all four corners of the Jeep when I perform any maintenance..
Also I prefer bartact seat covers. The Molle on the back and sides are awesome
Hey Brad, great breakdown of your storage solutions! You definitely inspired me to purchase a Jeep :P I got a 2 door because I love the size but it's definitely more limiting in terms of what I can pack and carry with me.
You made the right choice with a 2 door! I love mine.
That fire extinguisher is very cool,
Great video as always Brad
I appreciate that!
Awesome Master Chief!!!
Thank you kindly
The wait for the power wagon vids is excruciating.
The Element Fire Extinguisher info was perfect. needed something smaller I could mount at the driver position. 140 lb. Bloodhound has command of the cargo area.
Love that GooseGear. My doggo doesn’t like the seat & I’ve been considering removing the 60% seat. Thanks for the tip!
Interested to see how you mount the roam box. I am interested in picking one up but don't like the idea of having to drill into the box to mount it to the roof.
2019 jl. I bought suparee roll bar saddle bag. From amazon. Wow they have a lot of storage more than I expected. They hold a lot of weight for recovery gear
I bought a couple of those extinguishers a few months ago. I really like the compact size and light weight. The only downside is that not everyone will know how to use it. I also have two bottles of cold fire that seems to have good reviews.
Great Vid, Brad! Thanks
Great video. Very informative
Brad, Good morning. Hope this this note finds you and your family well. I’ve been binge watching your videos and made myself a list of things I need. Quick question. Any reason why you don’t have a Tailgate cargo rack? Keep up the great videos. I’ve found them informative in helpful. Take care, Joe
Well organized u must of been in the service thank you for your service
Good video! Keep them coming! 👍✌️😊🇺🇸 Semper Fi 1968-1972.
Thanks a lot Brad, I just added a bunch of crap to my Amazon shopping list! LOL
Great video storage is always a on going process I have yet to figure a solution to my wife’s 20 suitcases of clothes 😳🤪🤪 have to check out the fire extinguisher really great idea good stuff as always be safe 👍👍
LOL! My wife is the same way!
I drive a 1964 cj5 willys on 30s” tires. Gonna have a roof rack for tools, firewood, etc. then im building a 60s teardrop camper for camping, haul my kitchen, bedding, solar, etc
Great video. Working on modding my first Jeep vehicle
Right on!
Nice job Brad!!!!
Thanks!
Thanks Brad, Now I have to figure out how they can send that fire extinguisher out here to Okinawa!
Nice pogey bait drawer there Brad :)
Great video! Cheers!
Thank you! Cheers!
I always wanted a trasharoo then found a RUCKAROO on a tj forum. Scored a brand new factory defective rucksack from DRMO and now have a ruckaroo! All for the price of free 99 even with a grenade pouch and a new factory defective IFAK too ( I use it to hold spare straps and clips)
Great gear review.
Glad you liked it!
He Brad, love watch your videos. Somewhere, I am sure you mentioned your solution for on board air for the diesel JL but not sure I remember you mentioning it. I have a 2021 Diesel Willys that I will use as my daily company car for the next few years meaning minimal mods and light trails. Then will add lift, tires, lockers, etc. With this mind, I do want to add air before spring. What did you go with and where did you mount it? Thanks again for the great info!
I really enjoy these types of videos. I like the Molly set up on the seat back, I've been meaning to do something like that but haven't gotten around to it yet. I have most of my smaller stuff tucked into the door pockets in my 4Runner, those are pretty handy for these things.
Also excited to see you giving the element fire extinguisher is shot, I've been meaning to pick up a fire extinguisher for my rig, and I recently saw this one and thought it looked like a great option. I'd be interested in a more in-depth review of it if you get a chance.
Live full time in my 4-runner. Need a better extinguisher answer than the standard which are fine and cheap but large and too easily activated accidentally. Got an Element. Seems to be the answer to my issue. Very small, can’t be accidentally activated but not cheap. They claim to last longer and more efficiently put out fire. No test results, sorry but hope to never need it.
@@johnbonnell5463 thank you for the information! I think I'll pick one up for mine. It's a requirement to go out with some of the off-road clubs in my area, but I think it's just a good thing to have in general. Also, would love to see your set up in your 4Runner, do you have a channel or an Instagram with photos?
No social media,sorry. I’m very stock, large Yakima basket roof with capability to carry my Mtn bike, plastic Target drawer system. Good sleeping pad when not tenting.5 years on the road, 206k miles. My version of retirement! Good luck and happy travels in your rig!
@@johnbonnell5463 sounds good! That's kind of my goal with mine, especially about the storage for mountain bike stuff. I still have close to 20 years to go, but it's pretty much my retirement dream too. Enjoy your travels!
A place for everything and everything in its place. Nice!
Great Video! Question, How are you powering your fridge? From what I’ve seen the diesel does not have enough room for a dual battery system under the hood. Also Black Rifle Coffee is the BE ST. Glad to see you not only have great tastes in vehicles, but in coffee as well. Keep up the great work!
Love my Jeep but wow, space is a serious issue. Getting a FrontRunner rack so after the RTT is installed I will still have the area above the freedom tops for a box like those ROAM.
The softboxes are great, you can label them but you can also buy the bags or softboxes with a clear top then you can see what's in them.
Kitting out my FJ and trying to figure out what works and what doesnt. My Subaru was a but different and more challenging honestly. Currently doing a mix of soft/hard cases. I have soft molle panels with pouches on the backs of my seats which is great for some things! Now its more or less figuring out recovery gear. Im thinking my roam adventure box, (cant remember the size) but its quite large and deep on the roof rack. We shall see.
Good job I’m very interesting thank you
Brad could you go into more detail on how the Roam boxes mount to the roof rack?
Nice video. As always very informative and professional. I hope to get that professional with my channel someday. Can you give me some information on your radios? Mounted and hand held.
That is a great looking roof rack. I like the low profile, to many racks sit way to high. I really like tool bag, but it is no longer available according to Amazon. Any other options you like in replacement of it?
I’ve watched your and your helpful hint over the years, but one thing that I’d like to get your opinion is this… Should you carry spare parts in your vehicle for emergencies, if you’re going to be out in the woods for weeks or months, or on expedition to a foreign country, where parts may not be available? And what parts would you carry? Lightbulbs, fan belts, etc…..
love your videos where would you mount your weapons shotgun side arm ? please advise cheers.
Master Chief?! Navy alumni myself! Right on!
Yes, retired. Thanks for your service!
@@TrailRecon Hooya brother, in Rancho Cucamonga. Maybe see you on the trail!
cool stuff
Don't swap gear, just store the Jeep in the back of the Power Wagon. Problem solved!
GEAR... to HOLD GEAR!!! WOOHOO!!!!
Nice video just trying to get into this over landing ... “fellow 8404” packing is always imperative.
Thanks for your service doc!
Hi Brad, how are you mounting those roam cases to the rhino rack platform rack? Straps? Bolts?
What kind of roof rack is on your red jeep in the background here? Looking for that exact one.
I have been looking for a really low profile rack because I am getting close to my garage door height on my 2020 JLU. When you held up the measuring tape to your rhino rack it looked like about 5.5" above the hard top. Is that about right? I think I have about 6.5" of clearance left so that may work for me. I also like that rack because it looks like it would still allow me to take the hard top off on nice San Diego summer days.
Brad how do you indeed to secure the Roam Boxes to you Pioneer platform. Looking at a similar set up for my Pioneer platform on my 2020 Rubicon. Ratchet straps or actually bolting them to the rack?
Any opinion on the tuffy deluxe enclosure for the rear cargo? I've had multiple break ins, and it looks a bit more secure than the goose route.
Hey Brad, what do you think of rubicon 4xe? very interested in that one
really helpful !
Glad it helped!
@@TrailRecon been watching for years ... prior Navy and I'm on my 5th Jeep now .. moving out West ( northern Cal ) and looking forward to hitting the trails ... would love to meet up at some point over the next year as you begin your country travels Sir. Bravo Zulu
Brilliant
Are we ever going to see another good ole overlanding video including Marcos cooking or have those days passed away?
Many good channels are turning into gear reviews. I am dumping most of them.
I’m sure he doesn’t just overland daily to make videos for you. I’m sure he’s got a job,responsibilities as well. Just be happy he cranks out awesome content for us to watch.
I am surprised you didn't get the Blueridge Overland molly system with all the other items you have from them.
How do you attach the roam boxes to the roof rack? Been looking into them but haven’t really found much
Nice! How about the overhead space?
Brad, I’m sure you addressed this in a precious video, but can you tell me the size of your Power Tank installed in the back roll bar
