Thanks for this video. I live in UK and have tried to source the components suggested by you from here. I couldn’t get all so I’ve purchased some from the USA and shipped them over. That’s dedication!! Appreciate your guidance….
I watch your videos and always think that's a lot of stuff on your Jeep, but then have to remind myself that's the cool thing about the community of Jeepers. I continue to watch because of your enthusiasm and the stuff you do is pretty dang awesome. Loved the trailer build series!
I appreciate the kind words! I love being outdoors, working on my Jeep and I'm a "modder". I can't leave well enough alone and am constantly modifying things to suit me better lol.
To those asking I copied most of his ideas and they worked wonderfully, except I used a green 10 foot flexilla hose (looks great) and was the perfect length to wrap around both side and mounted the quick fists with four 1'' carriage bolts from Home Depot (5/16th I think) same diameter as the include mounting bolts but shorter. I had to drill out the hole on the quick fist (MINI) to allow the bolt to fit. My original hose from the road shower cracked at the bend point and I was disappointed with the velcro and c clamp attachments so this was a wonderful upgrade to find. Thanks, very smart ideas.
Great video! Like the rubber hose extension idea and modified mounting (i hate the original clips). Assume you keep water in the hose under pressure all the time as there’s a lot of volume in that extended hose! The idea of turning it around is fantastic as I dont really like the big product label lettering!
Your videos are top notch man you should do some outlanding on a budget and starter pack gear videos for those who are just getting into jeepin. Might help boost the subs 👍
Hello 👋 question : When you consume let’s say 60% of the 7 gallon , do you have to pressure the tank again ? I assume the pressure will be much less when the tank is full and pressurized @ 65 PSI.
Thanks for showing us your upgrades! Interested in how you mounted the road shower onto your rack? I have a similar platform with the struts running parallel (Rival) so no crossbars to use, just one in the middle. Any suggestions?
This is awesome brother!! TY so much.. also, how did you shorten the hose? Did you have to use a mender kit? And are those two flexzilla fittings make or female?
I did cut it shorter can't remember how much. I measured it so that it would at least fit around my Jeep and I used the Flexzilla end kits one male one female
Im curious if anyone has recs for shower heads that help extend the pressure life. I’ve had issues with the pressure extending more than a minute (on the 7G). I’m sure hose and shower head are a big part of that.
Great video! Couple of questions for you. First of all, the link to the hose goes to unavailable. My only question to you, is what is the length of hose you are using? I have the Roadshower 10G. Also, have you had issues with water coming out or not coming out? I have had what I think are air bubbles and it is becoming common place. Just wondering if you have had issues like this? I pressurize it to 65psi when I fill it. BTW- Your quickfist mod is legend!
I can't remember the length of the hose. It's just long enough to wrap around the back side and the front. So no issues with water flowing, the valve works just fine. Only issues that I've had are the pressure cap blows off at 45psi instead of 55psi. Also I'm prolly gonna get ride of the quick disconnects as no matter what I do they just leak. I'll switch them to just standard connections. Also thnnk you for the kind works man I really appreciate it!
@@CodeBrownProductions Thanks for the response. I am looking at a 25FT hose since the one it came with is 7FT. Also- I hear you on the quick connects. I think I am going to get those out of the picture and also take off and reseal the valve this winter and put on a new pressure cap as well after I dry it out.
@3:22 - I notice when you open the valve to use the hose, it's leaking quite badly between the hose and the nozzle; have you fixed this with plumber's tape/re-securing the nozzle? Edit - I see it's from the QD fitting... did you fix it? Also, do you have to drain your RoadShower after every use as the instruction manual says? I don't see the point of that.
I'll be honest I'm to lazy to make a short. The connections are from Flexzilla. If you go to their website they have some fantastic instruction videos on how to make the connections.
Hey mate, love the video and will be doing the same. Question! How food you mount the roadshower to your platform? I ask because I’m goi g to need to mount to rhino rack pioneer platform and the slats run in the opposite direction to Yakima platforms. Justin in Wagga Wagga NSW Australia.
I didn't use the slats I used the cross bars that go side to side under the slats. The bolts are long enough that they can reach down under the cross bars In-between the flat panels. This allows the tank to be nestled In-between the flat panels for extra support.
I'm dying to know how you attached the road shower to the locknload rack. Exhaustive research tells me there is no factory part to attach the two. How'd you do it?? Help!
I know this says its for showers but does anyone know if I can use this for shower purposes AND drinkable water? Sorry if this is a dumb question... I do like it for its low profile since I park my vehicle under a roof and limited to hight.
You're gonna get mixed questions on this one. The manufacturer says it's not for drinking water. But I've seen several people do it. I do for what it's worth but I am from the generation that drank out of a garden hose
According to Yakima no. If you want to drink out of this get an RV rated hose that is rated for drinking water. Rubber and Flexzilla hoses contain chemicals that are bad for you.
@@CodeBrownProductions it would probably be able to be used as a extra water tank to be mounted on the other side or make 2 for one in the center of the roof so that you could have plenty of hot/warm water for you and another person to shower 🚿. Or my favorite shower together in order to save water. Lol 😂

Planning on buying a Roadshower. Your video was very useful. It will save me a lot of time figuring out the way to fix it and get the best out of it.

The quick dust idea is legit. Well done.

nice job well thought out, very clean and meaningfull set up
Thanks!

That's a really good idea!
I’m interested to see how you did that cell booster. I want to know where to get that swing mount
Thank you for the tips. Really good. On a side note, whar roof rack is on your jeep?
Great video! How did you connect the shower to your lock load rack? I’m searching for a solution for that
Thank you for the tips,,,,question pls for the Flexzilla Pro Water Hose Reusable Fitting should I go for male or female ?
I have both
Damn great ideas!
Cheers from Montana
thanks for sharing I've been looking at those yakima water tanks for awhile now
I love it so far.
These are all great points. Thx
Thank you
Great video. Do you know what size quickfists you used? The 'Small' or the 'Micro' ? Assuming it's a 5/8" inch hose. Thanks for the help!
Hello 👋 question : When you consume let’s say 60% of the 7 gallon , do you have to pressure the tank again ? I assume the pressure will be much less when the tank is full and pressurized @ 65 PSI.
You don't have to repressive it but it is nice to do so as you get a more consistent flow
Nice just ordered the rubber quick connects, what type of screws did you use to install?
I can't remember the size but it's whatever bolt size this fits in the slot cut out on the side there.
Loved the video. What rack do you have on top of your Jeep ?
Rhino Rack with Backbone
I just got a new roadshower and now you made me want a new black hose, looks so good!
How big is the hose?
I'm not sure how long it is exactly. It's just long enough to wrap around both sides of the tank.
Thanks for showing us your upgrades! Interested in how you mounted the road shower onto your rack? I have a similar platform with the struts running parallel (Rival) so no crossbars to use, just one in the middle. Any suggestions?
Lay crossbar on deck bolt them down using the same bolt as for the shower

Hey Buddy, what bolts you used for the clips? Having a hard time looking for a T bolt that fits well.
My question as well.

Yes I did fix that. It was just the o ring that was pressed out of place.
@@CodeBrownProductions - sweet. And you are still happy with it after 8 months of use?
nice adjustment to the road shower!
Thank you!
I have a 10 gallon it’s about 88inch in length how long of a Goodyear garden hose I should get? How long is yours?
Can you make a short video on how you put the hose together? My Roadshower hose leaks like crazy and I'd like to make one like this...Thanks.
I'll be honest I'm to lazy to make a short. The connections are from Flexzilla. If you go to their website they have some fantastic instruction videos on how to make the connections.

Thank you so much for getting back to me. My Roadshower arrived a couple of days ago so great timing of your reply. Much appreciated.
Genius. Thanks for sharing
You're welcome!
Good Video. How did you install the RoadShower to the Pioneer System. Could you send a picture. Thanks Bob
I'm also curious how he did this too!
How exactly are the quickfists connected to the carriage bolts and put into the track?
My Yakima road shower won’t hold pressure. It was like that out of the box :(.
I added rubber washers to the large filler cap and that didn’t help. 😢
Awesome mods!
hi mate thanks for video how you attached the road shower to the locknload rack?TY
I love goodyear hoses. Thats what I have for my quad tire inflation set up.
They are a little pricey but I believe in "you get what you pay for". I'll pay more if I know it actually works and lasts.
Okay you HAVE to tell us where you got that antennae mount
It's from Rhino Rack
I'm dying to know how you attached the road shower to the locknload rack. Exhaustive research tells me there is no factory part to attach the two. How'd you do it?? Help!
you should do a video on your American Adventure Lab MASS storage system and Spare Tire Platform.
It looks like you already saw that video lol
@@CodeBrownProductions yeah I realized after I posted this. I love the setup and I’m working on the same for my Bronco.
Is that a Yakima lock n load platform? Does the road shower mount easily to the platform?
do you have any concern about the weight being up high when driving off road?
I know this says its for showers but does anyone know if I can use this for shower purposes AND drinkable water? Sorry if this is a dumb question... I do like it for its low profile since I park my vehicle under a roof and limited to hight.

Please send me the link for hose, spray and parts connected. Thank you very much!
does your filler cap still hold air ? mine eventually leaks and then I have to use pipe thread tape. :(
What size did you use to screw the handles on?
I can't remember to be honest
@dhPonury did you ever figure it out?? I’m trying to find a set of carriage bolts but can’t figure out the size
How long is that hose? They don’t sell just 10ft?
Great idea I’d thought of doing something like that but only using 6” PVC pipe
I'm sure that would work great!
@@CodeBrownProductions it would probably be able to be used as a extra water tank to be mounted on the other side or make 2 for one in the center of the roof so that you could have plenty of hot/warm water for you and another person to shower 🚿.

Cool stuff
I thought so too.
Do you need 2 male flexzilla fittings for this or one of each?
No, I used one female and one male connection.
What do you have your signal boost mounted to?
Good job, Thanks 👍😎
How long is the hose?
Just long enough to wrap around both sides of the tank. Not sure the exact length.
Cual es el rack encima del jeep que marca gracias
Real question: how do you keep the water clean?
By putting clean water in the tank. I don't drink from it.
You have to clean your tank out periodically to prevent mold. Try a bleach solution
beauty 🎉🎉🎉
The Flexzilla that you use are both female or male?
Can I change shower head to something else
You can change it to anything you like with the right fittings.
👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😅😂😂😂😅😂😂😅
Y u laugh?
LOL
