Troopy Gear Rig Rundown - a tour of our 2006 HDJ78 Toyota Troopcarrier

As a few of our Instagram followers were keen on finding out more about our Troopy, we thought we would put this little tour video together. Our setup is nowhere near where we would like it to be, there is lots to change and update and modify - but even as it is we are still able to get out and tour in it. We will do another setup rundown once we have all our camping gear back in it (we had it ...

    • @troopygear
      @troopygear 4 місяці тому

      We have, however instead of mounting it in the APW Vent, we have mounted our ARB Single compressor and all fittings/switches/connections onto our Thorburns ARB Air Compressor panel. It just suited our setup better, and if we need to get access to it without removing our setup we can just undo the panel :) Will have an updated walkthrough video of our new fitout coming soon.

      Kyle maybe try disconnecting the yellow cable from the reverse light and hook the red to where the yellow was (if you haven't already got the red wire hooked up). Let us know if that fixes it 👍🏼

    Interesting to see what set up you come up with! Love the idea of a Headspace conversion too,seem really great. The little research I have done is that induction cooking is quite power hungry and can make for a more complex $ setup...but its also something I would consider down the track??!! Great lil vid guys. Well done. Cheers. :)

    • @troopygear
      @troopygear Рік тому

      Thanks @geoffrandell9533 :) - Yes, we are hope we will be able to save some $$ and get the rooftop conversion underway. Will have to knuckle down and do some more farmwork! As for the induction setup, luckily Vaughn is a sparky and has had heaps of 12v experience (we live in a home-built van that runs entirely off solar, including our induction cooktops and dometic aircon, so I'm excited to see what kind of system he comes up with for the Troopy!) We will do a run down of that in the future as well. The Troopy currently has a massive 370W house panel on the roof to give our second battery enough juice as we were using the Engel in the Troopy as our permanent freezer. Thanks for the kind words :) glad you enjoyed it! - Kobie

    Good video. A list of all plumbing part would be most helpful instead of rewatching video back and forth. My tank install was not easy. 1 tank strap bolt below step tread just would not go in. 3 hours and the swear jar was over flowing. Ok I'm off to bunnings. Cheers.

You would have to organise installation via your own mechanic or 4x4 accessories fitter in Pakenham. - for any further enquiries please email us troopygear@gmail.com as we do not monitor our UA-cam channel daily for sales enquiries.

We replied to one of your comments earlier, we only have installation available in Morisset NSW or Gladesville Sydney, so you would have to organise instalment through your own mechanic or 4x4 accessories fitter near Pakenham.

      @@billcollis431 Hey! It has held up great. The breather location hasn't been a problem for us. We decided to upgrade the pump to a Seaflow 12v Pump, and tweaked the outlet plumbing slightly with the intent on plugging a Joolca in (we didn't end up using it on our camping trip but did test it out). There was nothing wrong with the original pump, but the Seaflow is very quiet and the same as what we are running on our custom made caravan so it seemed practical to run the same pump for us!
