Jeep CAMPER Conversion TOUR - Full Bed & Kitchen

Поділитися
Вставка
  • Опубліковано 1 вер 2020
  • It took a month of hard work to convert this stock Jeep Wrangler into a camper. Now, after a road trip this Summer, I am finally ready to show you all my Jeep Camper! This is car camping on steroids; a custom built camper van of sorts that includes a full bed, kitchen and shower. It is perfect for road trippin' and living on the road as a photographer. After showing the initial build in a previous video, I am happy to share the final product! For me, this was the most practical way to get into #vanlife without actually owning a van. I hope you find some inspiration to do something similar. You don't need a van. You don't need a Jeep. It just takes the confidence and determination! Time to go Jeep camping!

    Great build, I love seeing DIY campers like this. It shows that you don't need the expensive aftermarket stuff. Usually over time you figure out what works and what doesn't so you improve and evolve.

    i can 'suggest'...after you move front seats 'forward' ( sleeping mode )...add a DARK 'curtain' behind front seats...to leave front driver/passenger/Windshield Alone...to Avoid Suspicious 'Peeps' walking by...thinking there is someone 'sleeping inside'!... i would try to keep bed platform as low as possible to 'Maximize' head room. For me...when platform too 'high'...i feel like i'm sleeping in a coffin ( due to ceiling...too close to my head...). Cheers from Canada..Safe Travels!!

    Love your set up! I love camping in my Jeep Wrangler too! I don’t have a dedicated set up like you, but when I do go out for my random trips, I have a mattress in the back, and just stealth camp in random cities and for solo camping trips. I usually keep my 9 by my side since I like to sleep in areas such as bourbon st in New Orleans occasionally.

  • @SimplyLesa
    @SimplyLesa 3 роки тому +8

    Totally love it! I have a WJ without a platform bc I can sit up inside like in a tent. A Wrangler is my dream vehicle! I like the Thule box a lot, the awning is important in some locations and makes it feel like you have a living room or deck. I use a very inexpensive hikers tarp and attach it to the roof rails with bungee balls and carry adjustable awning poles budget was my concern. See ya on the road

    You've made me reconsider my entire build. Was going to have the yeti pop out the back, but this puts the platform higher than I would prefer. I have the 65. I am going to seriously consider the side door option. If you can provide anymore on how your cooler slide set-up is, that would be awesome :)

    • @MyEcoJournal
      @MyEcoJournal  3 роки тому

      Jenneil Parks Thanks, it was pretty difficult, but we got it as low as possible. The door is a sort of V shape, so the wider your cooler the higher the cooler will have to placed to make it fit. It did save height room though which was the goal

      @Tiger74147 10 місяців тому

      @@Leewilly440 I actually ended up going with the 2-door and am very happy with my decision. It'll depend on what you're using it for, of course. There actually is a way to put a sleeper setup inside, but more importantly I wanted to do lightweight offroading, the back seats are crazy comfy these days and high convertible or removable in seconds. The short wheel base is VITAL for maneuverability on the trail or in urban places. If I had a family or needed to tow heavier things it would be an issue, but as is I much prefer the versatility and agility.
