We're diving deep into the latest and greatest overlanding and off-roading products revealed at this year’s SEMA show. From innovative storage solutions to rugged gear that'll take your adventures to the next level, we’ve got an amazing lineup of products and companies to explore. Let’s get into it!
EX 4x4:
First up, we checked out EZ 4x4, which showcased a ton of exciting overlanding products. Their focus on aluminum construction is a game-changer for off-road durability. Aluminum not only resists rust but is also lightweight, making it ideal for the rough demands of overlanding. Their Alpha Doors have a few clever features, like removable interior panels and MOLLE compatibility, allowing you to easily customize and attach various accessories. Plus, the adjustable settings on the doors help prevent rattling as they age - perfect for keeping things quiet on those long drives.
EZ4x4 also displayed their Extreme Trunk - an upgraded version of their standard trunk with added panels and gas struts, making it a secure, convenient storage solution. It’s built for off-roaders who need easy access without compromising safety, especially for those who are vertically challenged or have less upper body strength. And with integrated locks and a tailgate table for camping, this setup is ideal for both hardcore off-roaders and weekend warriors alike.
Unplug Outdoor Co:
Unplug Outdoor Co. showed off a variety of off-road and camping essentials, including their four-tire air system and air compressors. These products are built to handle tough conditions and duty cycles and make airing up a breeze - a must-have for serious off-road adventures.
Unplug Outdoor Co. also displayed a truck camper topper. Designed in-house, these camper toppers are lightweight at only 285 pounds and are customized to fit various truck models with precision. At a competitive price of around $6,000, these toppers offer an affordable entry point for those looking to get into overlanding without breaking the bank. With features like heater ports, large windows, and MOLLE panels, this camper is designed for both comfort and function, whether you’re heading into the mountains or setting up at a desert campsite.
One of the coolest things Unplug Outdoor Co. offers is a lifetime warranty on their campers and rooftop tents. They’ve truly designed these products to last, and if anything goes wrong, they’ve made repairs easy with only three tools required. Talk about peace of mind on the road!
Wild Land:
Then we headed over to Wild Land to check out their Wingman Camper, which brings some unique features to the camping world. This camper weighs about 500 pounds and comes with a built-in battery to power its motors. With a load capacity of an additional 450 pounds, this is a versatile option for overlanders needing a lightweight but strong setup.
Wild Land also showcased a line of storage boxes made of aluminum and bamboo - ideal for anyone looking for durable and eco-friendly storage options. With various sizes and configurations, these boxes allow for maximum organization and style.
Overland Vehicle Systems
We also got a close look at the OVS line of expedition campers, which come fully assembled right out of the crate! These stainless-steel campers weigh just over 300 pounds. OVS also showcased their collapsible soft truck toppers. One of the standout features in this series is the collapsible truck topper, which allows you to fully access your truck bed even with the camper in place. This setup is perfect for those who want to switch between an overlanding rig and a regular truck bed as needed.
Expedition Caps: Customizable, Modular Storage for Any Adventure
Finally, we took a tour of Expedition Caps and their range of modular storage solutions. These caps offer everything from pull-out drawer systems to integrated shelving, allowing you to tailor your setup to fit your needs. The cap includes portal windows and glass options, so you can get some fresh air or enjoy the view while camping. With the addition of rooftop rails for tents or awnings, this setup provides a versatile base for any overlanding vehicle.
One of the great things about the Expedition Cap setup is that it's fully customizable. You can start with the foundation and add more shelves, drawers, or even a workstation as you go. It’s a modular design that adapts to your changing needs, whether you’re heading out for a weekend camping trip or need a mobile workstation for off-the-grid work projects.
Suparee:
Lastly we visited with our friends over at Suparee. They offer a wide range of lights for Jeep, Dodge, Ford, and Toyota. They were showing off a number of new designs so be sure to check them out.

    I've got a 2020 Wrangler my start stop light is always on. Replaced the aux battery and light went out for a little while but came back on. Tried this and removed the correct fuse checked it more than twice. Removed the one cable it wouldn't start. Tried the other cable wouldn't start. I just have the light on I don't get the message stop/start unavailable. With fuse out no light but with the cable hooked up is it still drawing from the aux battery on normal start up?

    I went in through the fuse box and removed the aux battery on my 2020 JTR. Connected its hot lead to the main battery positive and wrapped up the negative lead from the aux battery. Start stop works fine but can be turned off by the dash button. Didn’t want to carry a dead battery around forever.

    Great video, that addresses how to disable but what causes the issue. Is it a a weak start stop battery.

    • @otroverland
      @otroverland Місяць тому

      Yes. I think it's just the fact that Jeep decided to use what's basically a motorcycle battery to do all the heavy lifting for starting the vehicle. I honestly don't get it. If you've had this warning light come on, address it sooner rather than later. The aux battery charges off the main and if the aux is on its way out, it'll keep trying to charge and drain the main to the point of damaging it too. I had to replace my main about a month after making this video.

  • @tonycrispino4493
    @tonycrispino4493 Місяць тому

    Ultimately you want to pull the old Aux battery out along with the unnecessary wiring left behind. But this fix saves hundreds of dollars. There are some models where the Aux/Main battery leads are reversed, if you have any savvy with a voltage meter you can find it in seconds. But if it didn't work, try the other lead. That should do it. You effectively can save quite a bit of repair costs into the future with this simple hack. Both of my Jeeps are bypassed (2021 JT, and a 2022 JL). All Stop/Start or Run/Stop have the same flaw - the batteries are only as good as the weakest battery in the chain and you typically have to replace both by recommendation of Stellantis. $$$$. I don't think any of the manufacturers feel that this feature is a best design, but they get relief from the feds doing it. Which reveals why your congress is not the best technical advisor on your cars. Great, simple video. I have had zero issues with this bypass, which is less than I had before it..

      Yeah. I was eyeing those as well. They were honestly in my top 5. The price point was a bit higher than I wanted to pay. Don't get me wrong, they are great lights for the price. And clearly Harbor Freight is just branding someone else's product as their own. Which is totally fine. There are a ton of reviews on the Roadshock lights and everyone has had great things to say. So I don't doubt the quality. Suparee reached out to me and I gave them a try and was very impressed. So I did the review just to let people know there's another option to take a look at. And they are very competitively priced.

      Your aux battery or main battery may be too far gone. When the aux battery is on it's way out, it'll draw power from the main and wear them both out. I'd suggest having your main battery tested at AutoZone or the dealer.

      I'd say do what you think is best, but I've never heard of anyone having any issues removing the aux battery. I've been running it without the aux for 11 months now with no issues. If it's in parallel, then I don't think there's a concern of overcharge. It would just be less draw on the alternator.

    Question maybe u can help me. My auxiliary battery went out so I changed it a few days the later the light came on so I change the main battery. The light still on. Do you think it’s OK for me to do what you did in this video just to get the light to go off?

    • @otroverland

      I'd suggest if you replaced both and still have the warning light on to get it looked at. I'd say maybe it's still hanging onto to error code, but the time you took to replace the main battery should have cleared that code. You can go to an AutoZone and they will run a free diagnostic. So at a minimum, you can get the error codes it's throwing.

    Is no one going to say anything about your pilot hole drill bit almost snapping? Wow you were giving it the business, it was bent like a bow. Great tutorial though, thank you.

      Yeah, I noticed that too when I edited the video. Go Harbor Freight drill bits! 🤣

    2019 JL. Pulled the fuse and the cable - and everything was dead. Put the cable back and fuse - everything was as it was with the warning light back on. Pulled just the fuse and no more warning light. Seems on some models the Aux battery handles a little something extra and not just the start stop. On others it seems it just the start stop. Removing the fuse only fixed the error message. So I am happy.

      You can try swapping the negative battery cables you disconnect. I've learned it varies based on make and model.

      @@otroverland I that a few days ago, forgot to do an update here. Yea- so for mine it was the other cable that connects to the Aux Battery. I also disabled the stop start using the pin under the hood trick.

    For some reason my jeep wouldn’t start after doing this. When I put the fuse back in and then put the aux battery back on everything worked… like the auto stop/start resumed working and hadn’t for about a month

      Try swapping the negative battery cables. Same thing happened on mine. Depending on make and model, you may have to swap them. If your aux battery is on its way out, it can damage your main battery and that's expensive to replace.

    I have 21, tried as shown didn't work. Watched again tried reversing grounds, nothing , wouldn't start, like dead battery. Tried again connecting plain end cable, WORKED!, Will tape up cable with stud, and cross fingers it will continue to work.

    A silly question, but what is the auxiliary battery negative cable bc I ‘ve seen other videos where people disconnect a different from yours?

    • @otroverland
      @otroverland 5 місяців тому

      There are 2 negative battery cables. One that connects to the main battery negative terminal and one that connects the aux battery negative to the main battery negative terminal. Depending on make, model, and year of the Jeep,you may have to swap which one you disconnect. The first time I tried this, I disconnected the other cable and my Jeep wouldn't start, so I swapped and disconnected the other and it worked.

      I don't think it will disable the start stop function. I believe you need something like the Tazer Mini to do that. This video is if you've got the warning light.
