That's the way to do it. Much better than a fixed fiberglass canopy that leaks dust and water. I'm going to do the same as you with the ability to lower the canopy onto an aluminum tray top trailer. This will allow me to drive with the canopy in tow while having the tray available for other storage or visa versa. Thanks for uploading an excellent video.
Great set up everything organised you might have swayed me to this type of canopy except those rods in the draw bouncing around with a high lift jack and shovels lol
Mate, was wondering if you did any gvm upgrade or chassis strengthening? I'm building a similar setup, tray weighs about 80kg and canopy weighs the same. The tray is 1800 long though and goes past the leaf spring shackes quite a bit, I'm wondering if Newcastle gave you some advice on max weight etc. I dont know how strong these new hilux ladder chassis are.. I've seen people bend them over corrugations and rough driving with alot of weight. Thoughts?
I know you did your own electrics, just wondering how much you'd spend on a setup for an extended outback trip. Some packages look quite pricey! Thanks.
Great video mate.. Looking into converting from a tub to an alloy tray with alloy canopy in the next couple of months... This has just sealed the deal I think. Looks great and looks like it works well.. Just wondering what sort of $ figure it cost to get a canopy like this. Cheer mate.
hey fellow sparky {retired} if you get into a position where you can''t open the rear draw, all your recovery gear is inaccessable. it happened to me. just saying....
Great video mate, I was looking too make my own half canopy or design and make with the pros, just trying to minimise the cost Once again great video and if any more tips with the canopy would love em.
Good that you included RCD protection. Great video.

Just a thought, with the undertray long drawer what if you had some legs made up and a flat surface to cover your gear, make a great table/workbench.
Just wondering if you had a little bit more info on how your canopy ties down to your tray? Cheers

Don't want to mention the price tag? Its looks awesome but if the price is to high then it may have not been worth it.

That was a long video for an empty canopy and a trundle drawer...
8 minutes too long?? Was a good video I reckon
Almost too short if anything, had to explain how to make the canopy, great bloody video I reckon
