- After many questions and comments about our F 150 truck build, we have decided to do a multipart series breaking down the complete overland build. In this video we do a quick overview. In future videos we will be going to be breaking the pros and cons of each of the build. The F 150 is a great platform to build off of.

Set-up makes it easy to grab and go for a fun weekend adventure!
I have been camping my whole life and love backpacking but now that I have a growing family I can see the appeal to this whole overlanding thing. I'm trying to get my family out there more. If you ever want to get a small group together and go somewhere in the north georgia or south/north Carolina or really anywhere in the southeast just let me know!
Heck yeah brother let me know! We are always looking for someone to go ride with.
Nice set up! We have a similar truck 2020 f150 fx4 that we built it up for off roading fun. I thought about a roof top tent for it but we use the bed so much it would of turned into a pain to have. One day it's going to happen. It is interesting not to see more f150 on the trail, they are an amazing truck on dirt even for its size. 👍😁
Decked system is an awesome idea for someone who is doing full time camping or someone working. Not ideal at all it it's your daily driver. Awesome setup though.
It is definitely not for everyone. This is my daily driver. With the bed rack I don’t use it the same way many others do. I see where you are coming from though. Thanks for watching!
Great setup bro, very similar to my own. I love seeing other people make the same choices, it may be confirmation bias, but I think my rig is very well thought out. Obviously f-150's aren't ideal rock-crawlers, but I love the truck so I don't care. Jeeps are just too small for me. Can't say enough good about the decked system, it rocks. Again, great build.
I appreciate it, I love my truck. I agree, a jeep would be a great second or third vehicle. Just too small for our family of 5. The truck is a great platform that meets for our needs. The Decked system is so helpful. I haven’t got it completely dialed in yet but it is close. Thanks for watching!
Was literally just at garden of the gods on a tour and seen your truck there. I've got a 2015 f150 that looks just like yours and it is exactly what I was wanting to do to mine. Got a few pictures of it. Love the build!
Thanks! Go to our channel and at the top of the page is a video with our full build.
Lol just noticed this was on the truck video! So disregard the previous comment! 😂
@@SANDTOUTDOORS just ordered some airbags and the bilsteins you got on yours. How is the rear suspension with those bilsteins?
That was impressive! Great job!
Thanks buddy! We have a few mods left but it is getting close! Thanks for watching!
Hey buddy, that was a great video. You shared some incredible gear, it’s a big set up you have. Very awesome 😉😊
Thank you my friend! It is a work in progress but it is getting there. Our set up is a lot more than we anticipated when we started. But with a family of five it makes life so much easier
That is an awesome build!
Built it just for you Talls!
Super cool setup! Just recently got a 2014 F-150 4x4 and this is some good inspiration. Just found yalls channel, subbed 💯👍
Thank you for watching and subscribing, if you have any questions about building out your F150 feel free to message me. The F150 is a great platform, very underrated. I love pulling out the jeeps lol
I am going to watch some of your videos tonight, I just subscribed to you as well
Absolutely 💘 loving the generation 2 tent. Thanks for showing! Hate you can't dim the lights as well.
Right? Why are they so bright? It is a great tent though we are loving it. The down mattress topper is helping but we’re looking for something else possibly an egg crate or something like that. Thanks for watching my friend.
Fancy!! Love your set up. Anymore gear and you will be glamping!!
You got that right!
badass
Love this truck
So awesome!
This is Awesome!
Thanks Will! It has taken a lot of time, preparation and of course a ton money
Pretty nice truck. 👌
I appreciate it! It looks kind of like yours! 😂 Thanks for watching!
Great job with your build.. Which brand of 6 inch lift did you go with?
Bilstein 6112 coil overs and a RC lift

Good setup. Well except for that decked system which I dislike for how much of a space (and weight) hog that is for the utility it provides.
It is definitely not for everyone. But, for the way we use it it is great for our needs. We appreciate you watching.
@@SANDTOUTDOORS Does it stay in your truck year round?
@@KorraTheFrenchie it does, everything is mounted year round. We use it a lot. It honestly doesn’t make since to remove it.
Buddy really wanted to spend some time with the boys
But you know who was like blah blah blah
I have a similar setup, F-150 with decked system. i’ve been wrestling with moving my fridge out of the backseat and installing a slide system because i don’t want to drill into the decked. what was your solution and what about animals raiding your fridge?
I ended up drilling into the decked system. It has worked great. No leaks. The fridge that I have does have an electronic lock and the latches lock it down. We have not had any issues with animals in the refrigerator. The only place I’ve had animals is actually in the drawer system. We often times take home a mouse. Funny thing is they don’t eat the food we have in there they only eat mess with the paper towels to make a nest.
@@SANDTOUTDOORS Thanks for the response👍
@@TheMattfranz no problem, thanks for watching
Alright guys
You got 6” of lift in the front just with the 6112s? Or was there anything else you did?
6112’s with RC Lift. 6112 alone gives somewhere around 3” if I remember correctly.
@@SANDTOUTDOORS thank you for the reply!
I am about to put on a fox 2.0 level kit and off road wheels, is that good enough for overlanding or do i need 6 inch lift?
That should work great, mine was leveled for a while before I lifted it. If you’re going to put a rooftop tent and stuff in the back I would recommend adding the airbags. Otherwise the front will be substantially higher than the back. My buddy has the fox 2.0s and you should be very happy with them.
@@SANDTOUTDOORS any airbag recommendation?
You said you upgrades in the first year. Did it void any warranties?
No, but check with your service manager. I happen to have good one. He knows what we do with our truck. I always ask him before I do anything.
Do you leave the tent on the rack all the time? Looking to purchase one and in your other videos it doesn’t look like a hard cover is on it so I’m unsure of the durability
Yep! It’s on at all times. It has a zip on rubber cover that is always on. Very durable, no rips, no leaks. The hard top tents are a much faster and easier set up and take down but have a much bigger price tag.
Is this a 2.7?
Yep!
Awesome build. I hope to do a lot of these things to my 2015 f150. Also, you remind me of the guy from the Dr. Squatch soap commercials. ua-cam.com/video/cjEK7qQKRDY/v-deo.html
Lol hilarious! Never heard that one. Good luck on your build! Thanks for watching!
