5 beer setup … 2 beer watch 😂😂 looks fantastic 👍🏻
😂😂 Hopefully many beers under it!
@@JS_Adventure that’s a must 😂😂
Well done, it's a 5 beer job, My sister and brother-in-law mounted one on their vehicle, no problems, Cheers Bevan 🤠❤️🇦🇺
Cheers mate! Can’t wait to get the tent fitted out and back on to get back out there! 🍻🍻
Looks great Jack. That beach looks awesome 🤩👌
Cheers! It’s usually a stunning beach unfortunately lately it’s been full of seaweed!
Great vid mate,did really well by yourself.Great looking coastal area as well.Thanks mate😎
Cheers mate!! 🍻🍻 We just need the sea weed to clear up to get out fishing!
Thanks for the install video, very interestring. We are looking into one of these for our Prado 150 with an ARB Base Rack
How has it stood up over time, waterproofing, fading, bag cover etc.
Hope your rear door did not get a beating or damage over time.
Love the beer clock. Reminds me of my time in the Territory. Distance is measured in stubbies, six pacts or cartoons not KLMs
🍻🍻🤣 Cheers mate!!
Great work Jack, and much of it one handed! Just check insurance and licence requirements if you intend to change the seating capacity of the vehicle. You may need to notify both.
We’ve looking into getting an LK1 seat reduction but still looking into it as this won’t be a permanent fixture, and seats will be going back in at a later date. A lot to read up on
Jack, pretty sure those bolts that hold the awning on are mean't to slide in from the end of the awning. ( the bolt head fits into the track and cannot swivel ) They could come out they way you fitted them. Just check mate!
Cheers mate have been in talks with drifta and all is okay! 👌
Great work Jack
Looks great on your vehicle
Cheer mate! Just need to get out and start using it!
@@JS_Adventure yeh Drifta also make the walls for that awning
Good vid
Need longer brackets, lot of strain on brackets with only 6 bolts when it's a bit windy
Or get the drifta awning brackets that bolt to side of RTT
Cheers mate! We’ve got a couple of different options just need to get the tent back up there and go from there so nothing interferes with each other! Doubt we’ll be getting it back out in that wind! 😂🍻
Get a small bit of pool noodle, split it and just clip it over the truss when you open it up to stop it banging on your door
You may even be able to leave it on.
I think you need more bolts to spread the load
Cheers mate! Has been holding up pretty well so far and hopefully we’ll get the roof top back on there to sandwich the brackets! There bloody handy things those pool noodles!
Your brackets are up side down, turn them the the other way and you will gain more height! Happy days mate.
Gotcha! Cheers mate will give it a shot!
Check out the brackets from Kaon, they use 2 rails rather than 1 🤙🏼
Cheers mate! Will have a squiz!
I believe Rhino make a long awning bracket for the 270 awnings to attach to the pioneer rack. I will check it out on Monday.
Cheers mate! There’s a couple of different ones on the market, we’ve got to do some measurements with the rooftop tent and hopefully find one that fits with it
@@JS_Adventure the part number to the Rhino extension mounts is 43197.
For some reason it won't let me share the link for them.
Cheers mate! Will have a look and hopefully it fits it all!
Slide the brackets so they line up with the cross braces and see if a square u- bolt will fit and line up with the 3rd and 4th holes.???
I purchased kaon adjustabke 270 brackets. They span two purlons of the rack.
Ahh I’ll have a look! Kaon make some quality gear!
Did the Kaon bracket holes lineup with the Drifta awning well?
yeah and get more than 2 bolts up in the brackets if u can hopefully doesn't bend .
yeah I think it looks good and it definitely suits your setup !
cool nice drone footage!
Cheers mate! Hopefully when the tent goes back in it’ll sandwich it all together and make it stronger! Can’t wait to get out and start using it!!
Is that the 2.0 or 2.5 metre model ?
Hi mate, just wanted to ask if the total height of your car with the awning was under 2m
Get the rhino maxtrax heavy duty brackets and add them to the awning brackets ill get a pic of mine to show you that won't last that way
Will have a look! Still looking into how it’s going to be mounted with the rooftop but these might sort the problem!
Can You please share the pic?
Game changer now Jack. Looks perfect.
I would put the extra bolts in as if your travelling you might want it to stay on.
But looks awesome mate
Cheers mate! Will look at getting custom longer brackets for the extra bolts when the tent goes back on. Which will hopefully be sooner than later as I’m itching to get back out! 😂🍻🍻
@@JS_Adventure mate you would be itching, but watching you rebuild the Prado is going to be awesome to watch.
If your looking for a tinny look at stessco mate. They are a great little boat.
Didn’t think hunting for tinny’s would be this hard 🤣 We’re looking for a used quintrex f350 or Stacer 349 territory striker as they both allow a 15hp, high sided for crocs and are light enough to potentially roof top in the future! Seems like every time one comes up for sale it’s snapped up straight away! 😂
@@JS_Adventure the F350 would suit your needs perfectly. Very stable boats. I owned the F390 and it was an awesome tinny.
F350 outback is the way to go.
Beauty! Cheers mate! I’ve just got to find one! 😂 Dont really want to buy a boat that I’ll have to get rid of in the future because I can’t roof top it and have heard great things about the explorer outback’s! We did see one fully setup for $3000 with a 15hp 4 stroke and it was sold within the hour! 😂 We’ll find one!
How’s the awning holding up?
Still going strong, I don’t use it as much with the caravan now but had it out a couple of days ago and no problems at all, still an easy job putting out and back in!
What beach is that mate?
Drummond cove sand dunes in Geraldton
@@JS_Adventure cool cheers mate
Maybe hook up the AVan 😂😂
😂😂 We have thought about it!
watch you don't get breathalised
