- Just a quick video showing how I set up camp with my DMW removable canopy.
The Roof Top Tent is the Hardshell 1600 from ToyTuf.
The awning is the Caos Gear 270° Bub awning.

Not only is that jimny a beaut, it's practical as well!
Thankyou so much 😊
that's one of the coolest things I've ever seen! that drive away to 'reveal' the camp structure was epic
Thankyou so much 😊
Just simply amazing!!!
Your little zook has gone from perfect to EPIC!!
I've been following your videos from the beginning and I'm just baffled off what you have done with this little beast.
Some of your ideas are being implemented in various JB74, here in Northern Europe.
Keep up the good work and keep that amazing Jimny content coming 😊
Best of luck to you.
Wow Thankyou so much, and Thankyou for being so supportive for such a long time, I really appreciate that a lot 😊🙏
@@TheLittleRig More proof of how versatile the latest Jimny is!
What a great little rig, you have done a great job with it. Looks awesome
Thankyou so much Brad 😊🙏
Wow that’s impressive quick and easy camp setup. Go out wheeling for the day and you’re camp site is all ready set up when you get back. You would have plenty of people jealous Darren. Looks forward to seeing your next video mate take care
Thankyou very much mate. Appreciate your kind words 😊🙏
great concept of a very cool and versatile setup
Thankyou Mate 😊
Wow, this is an amazing build!
Suzuki USA --- Listen to your fan base!!! We need these for sale in the US!
Epic rig, I love it.
Love the fact that you've done this on a jimny, 👌🚙👍🇨🇮☘️
Thanks heaps mate. Just trying something a little out of the norm 😊
What an insane rig! I unfortunately just sold my 2021 Jimny as the family is growing. This makes me miss it so much
Thankyou so much! Yeah they are a fun car so I can understand you missing it. Def not really great for a family though hey.
Fantastic setup. 👍
Thankyou very much 😊
That is an amazing setup. Surprised I haven’t seen any around. No doubt they will catch on.
Thankyou!!
Sick rig!
Thank you very much mate 😊🙏
Epic setup ❤ can't wait till I can get Kerrmit done too
That will be so awesome!! 😊
Please don’t chop me 🐸
New subscriber here ,just found your channel and glad I did 👍 what a amazing set up ! well done ! will be going back through all your videos as my next car will probably be a Jimmy . I have a 2014 4 door Vitara atm , so looking to get some ideas . Cheers 🍻
Thankyou so much mate. Please excuse the quality of some of my videos I’m very very novice haha. Thankyou so much for subscribing. I hope you stay for the journey 😊
Yeah, cool,mini snakes and ladders
Less is more,
Bud love the setup
Thanks so much mate 😊🙌🏼
Nice setup!
Thankyou 😊
Well done. I'd love to see Suzuki come out with a longer wheelbase version that's already a factory single cab ute. It needs to be able to be registered for road use unlike the farmworkers
Yeah exactly mate. And I guess that’s the difference with what we’ve done here. Fully engineered and mod plated, so completely legal and registered.
I love it !!!
Thankyou 😊
Clever AF! 🤙
Thankyou legend 🙏🙏😊
So good 🎉
Awww Thankyou 🤗
All I want is the tray conversion, that's it!
That’s so sick goddamn
Thankyou very much mate 😊
That must be the smallest flat top ute in Australia very nice but you modified for a purpose to carry your camping rig what a great idea anf the most important thing its a Suzuki Jimny
Hahaha I reckon you’re probably right mate haha. Was all about doing something different but suited my lifestyle. Doing hard tracks when I want to as a ute and then having the camping option with the canopy. I love it 😊🙌🏼
@@TheLittleRig Great solution to carry your camping device l don't know what you would call it but it is a very neat set up
Hope the Jimny inspires a wave of small 4x4s, everything feels twice as big and heavy as it needs to these days
Completely agree 😊
Mad setup mate .. i have full size removable canopy , rooftop tent so good , jack it off the back , there s your home base , then you can go explore , bk to base all your bed setup for yah haha tc :)
Exactly mate. So good hey 😊🙌🏼
Brilliant! Didn't think about using those beefy impact tie down screws to secure everything, do you have info or another video on the canopy leg cross bracing? Cheers.
Hey mate the cross bracing is literally just metal extendable tent poles with a hole at either end that I bolt through the legs. That way no matter how uneven the ground is and what height each individual leg is, I can always adjust the cross bracing to the right length and attach it 😊
can you share a video of how you made this pick up jimny ?
I wish to do the same with my jimny, making it pickup vehicle and i wish i could understand the way of making it.
how did you measure the size of cutting and how you re-connect the back of it.
Legend
Thankyou mate 😊🙏
What would you say is setup time covered in this video? I would be inclined to do this with a more conventional double cab, but the whole base-camp setup is awesome.
Hey mate, this was actually the first time I did the set up off the vehicle, so it took me realistically probably 45 mins or so, including the awnings and table and chair etc.
I think over time I’ll probably get this down to about 25-30 mins start to finish. Maybe quicker.
Sweet 😋
Pretty cool... Safe from crocs up here!
Haha you’re spot on there mate 😂
Looks fantastic. Great job.
How much does the whole setup weigh? I assume you have had the vehicle engineered for the tray conversion; is the new GVM enough for all that gear?
Hey mate, Thankyou. Yep all engineered and GVM upgraded. The tray and canopy total is only 150kg. It’s only 10kg more than was cut off. Obviously the RTT and items inside the canopy weigh more though, but it’s really not that heavy. 😊
Just found your channel. What a cool set up.very original. 👍 How do you like the stability of it on the posts?
Thankyou very much mate, I appreciate it. Yeah it absolutely 100% completely rock solid. Can’t budge. It’s all to do with the diagonal cross bracing I put on. Not a worry in the world 😊
👏👏👏👏
I just bought a Jimny and am confused about something, it’s an Automatic, when in 4Low 4x4 mode should the gearshift be in D,L or 2 and why? Can it be in either?
It can be in D but sometimes you don’t want it to shift, so you put it in L to hold the gear.
🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩👍🏻 total dream¡¡¡¡
😊🙏
Awesome little set up. What’s the little thing get on fuel?
Thankyou 😊 Not too bad considering the tyre size. About 650km as a ute and about 600km loaded with canopy and RTT. That with an 80L tank.
Cool set up, and only 3 days to set up.
About 40 mins but I can handle that if it means driving tracks or getting to explore an island for a week and always have camp set up to come back to.
I can imagine that exact setup, but with a breakneck trailer setup, where you just unhook it from the car.. Micro breakneck camper trailer...
We use to have a similar set up with this car a couple of years ago 😊
What kind of anchors are you inpact driving into the ground and are they recoverable?
Hey mate yep, they are the Ezy Anchor Pegs. For the legs I use the long 200mm ones and shorter 100mm ones for the guy ropes. 😊
That truck looks soo cool.. I don't really know much about overlanding gear or techniques... When I see this, I think: I'd rather just set up a tent on the ground. I wouldn't like my tent being 8 feet up in the air, and all the work with the stilts. So.. why do this? What are the benefits vs. putting a tent on the ground?
Hi mate, so the benefit is having the 12 volt system, cooking, fridge and roof top tent etc all set up permanently and ready to go at any time. When we pull into camp, we can set up, go driving hard tracks every day or exploring the area, and return back to camp every night already set up ready to grab a drink, cook a meal and go to bed. The set up time is under 30 mins so it’s probably much shorter than setting up a tent and then unpacking all the gear you need for cooking etc. Or at least a similar time. If I was only camping for a night I wouldn’t unhook it, I would leave it on the car. But when it’s for a few days or longer, and I want to do rock crawling, I’m 100% taking it off 😊
Hey mate, great video, that exhaust sounds sick!! 👌🏼👌🏼 Just wondering what exhaust is it? And do you know how much power of makes with it?
Hey Portia! Thankyou 😊 It’s the Legendex headers and exhaust system. It’s a small power gain… about 5hp and about 10nm of torque. All adds up on a jimny though 🤙🏼
Awesome! Thanks for the info. Is that with a tune aswell?
@@portiastephens221 no that’s just an independent baseline dyno reading done by BPS without a tube :)
So what if you need your spare tyre or maxtrax when you're out wheeling? Not really practical to jack it off at camp.
Hahaha mate come on…… you really think I wouldn’t think of that? I have a flat tray… they literally strap down on the tray bed. I can’t post a photo on here but literally all of my photos on insta or Facebook show the spare on the tray.
ooooooh ジムニー カッケー！！！
Are we allowed to ask how much are u in the hole for this build.
What an epic rig. Great build.
Hey mate no problem. Including the car itself, over the 4 years I’ve had it, the total build as it sits right now is probably at about $140k. Having said that, a lot of items on my car are sponsored or research and development products, so I’ve come up with the ideas but not necessarily had to pay for them since my car was donated for the development of the product. Sometimes it pays to get in first with ideas.
My point is, although the build ‘value’ is about $140k, I personally don’t have that kind of money laying around. Hahahaha
@@TheLittleRig 😂 absolutley fair call. How good is it not seeing another poxy 79 build being sponsored. Ur rig is a killer, what is the fuel econmy like, with the weight u have added?
@@krump743 it’s never great with my cat because of the tyres haha. But with the canopy and roof top tent, I get about 560km from the 80K tank. So it’s not horrific, but it’s not great either haha
I would trade everything for that setup
Too kind mate 🙏😊
@TheLittleRig I'm in canada and we can't get one of these Jimny's even if we wanted to since suzuki left north America.
Good sir, may I ask what's the point detaching the back rig?
Hey mate, it’s so I can go rock crawling or exploring and always have camp set up ready to come back to at the end of the day 😊
@@TheLittleRig Uuuwah! Never thought about that. Nice! Thanks for the reply. New subscriber here man.
@@aresemstactical9682 Thankyou so much my friend 😊🙏
How’s the balance once you’re up there?
Completely rock solid mate. You can’t budge it once the angled crossbracing is attached :)
@@TheLittleRig awesome. Things a weapon
I;, wait for Jimny 5d
Not long now
Why did it need to be disconnected to the car?
So that I can go rock crawling, or, for example, if I go to a nice place like Fraser Island with my wife, we can set up camp, then go exploring everyday around the island without all the extra weight, with camp always set up ready when we arrive back.
I never need to pack up camp every morning. It’s brilliant 😊
@@TheLittleRig Honestly did not think of that. Now that you say that; it is brilliant. And the little Jimmy looks mad too.
@@cpezza1358 Thankyou my friend 😊🙏
lol if you leave that on a campsite someone is going to pick it up and walk off with it!
So far so good 🤷🏼♂️
That's annoying. You still have to spanner it off. Surely there's a quick pin system that would be just as secure?
It’s ok it takes 2 mins max and it’s secure and tight. I’m fine with that
Your leaving your spare and maxtrax behind presumably when you need them most.
Nah mate haha. I have a flat bed I just sit them on there and strap them down. You can see it like that in most of my ‘shorts’ videos on here! 🤙🏼
too much weight on top when you enter the tent. it doesnt seem safe to me
Haha trust me mate it’s absolutely rock solid. I wouldn’t have my wife and I sleeping up there if it wasn’t. Lol. Just as stable as it is on a car. It ain’t moving!
Why
Why what?
Looks great but not practical, on that Monet spent doing the conversion to carry your pillows and bedding to put in your tent🤔
I’m not sure what you mean? Where would you prefer me to carry my pillows and bedding?
Затея прикрльная,не понятно зачем снимать с машины?
To go 4wd’ing tough tracks and then come back to camp already set up at the end of the day.
@@TheLittleRigвозможно и удобно,у нас все свое ношу с собой.... Всего хорошего вам.идея не плохая в любом случае!
Блін, я не можу звертати увагу ні на що, окрім цього "шльоп-шльоп-шльоп"
Seems like too much work. I don’t see the point of removing it from the truck. Keep it simple.
Lol what 😂 it’s just setting up camp? I’ll give you an example… go to the Watagans or Fraser Island (I’ll assume you’re from Australia). Remove the canopy and set up camp. Spend the week rock crawling the tracks of the watagans or exploring the sands of Fraser Island. Every night you have camp already set up to come back to.
When the week is over, spend 30 mins packing up and drive away. Doesn’t get much simpler and smarter than that.
