Raingler cargo nets. That will keep the dog and the gear inside the vehicle. I used to use a truck bed cargo net between the drivers/passenger seat and the cargo area. Gear coming forward on some of the crazier downhills can be a “slight” distraction.
Great set up. In my FJ40 I welded some tabs on the family cage and fitted an original Thule basket rack. It allows the fridge on a slide out, a cubby for an “easy” box with 2 collapsible tables and two boxes for cooking and food. Its busy and its mostly permanent but I can live very well in the 40 and that includes a home for the soft doors as well. On shorter trips of a couple nights or so I keep my personal gear in a large 5.11 pack latched to the passenger seat. Un-clip it and throw it in the tent. For showers, I have a couple of collapsible buckets and go old school. I had my Dometic fridge in the back of my mini on the Rubicon trip. I read many threads where rain doesnt seem to affect them. Further up in the bed I had my Dometic battery that ran off the cigarette lighter. When the truck shut off the battery took over. Since Ive had a fridge I can’t handle a cooler anymore! Great video Harry and crew.
I'm always trying to slim down my gear. A great tip is look at motocamping videos. They have very compact set up what you can expand once adopted to a jeep
Another great video by the team! Great suggestions! I hope to someday drive a Jeep over the rubicon! How many times have you guys run the rubicon? The water spots look pretty heavenly!!! Thanks again for the great video. Sorry for the idiots in the comments.
Those LJ's have so much room comparted to my YJ. I've been converting it from a rockcrawler to more of a rocklander. How are you securing all of that stuff to the Jeep so it doesn't fly out in case of a rollover?
I generally take tools but not a ton of spare parts. Small things like sensors that don’t take up much room but for bigger things (drivelines, axle shafts) I just limp home if I had issues. I feel like there are too many variables to carry everything, but I do pre-trip checks to make sure everything is in good shape before I go.
Was going to say, that's a fairly similar set-up to what I carry but I add fluids and spares. I have a little more room than an LJ, but really not that much as I carry my spare inside my Disco1 and I don't pack 'above the beltline' as it's topless.
This is a prime example of what happens when you get one these overlander fake wheels trying to tell what people need. You don't need 70% of this junk for wheeling, especially the Rubicon
I looked for a video on your channel but didn’t find one. Curious what you take and leave behind. Maybe you are one of those guys who just takes a case of Coors and your wakeboard speakers and hits the trail…
@@HarrySituations John Muir explored the entire sierra nevada with only a few tea bags and some moldy biscuits, and he's still alive. Or is he? Maybe he's not. Guess he needed a fridge...
@GoProHeroVideos Na, I like bourgeois comfort. I travel with Fridge, shower, extra comfy cot, high end coffee, whiskey, large Gazelle tent. Bug screen room(keeps meet Bees/yellow jackets out if my food), Awning, and more. And it's awesome. Plus, I do the same obstacles and trails as the dudes roughing it. 😝😃😃

Excellent video!! 😎👍🏻
Great overview of what to bring without getting too detailed into a list; like listing all of your tools, etc.
Hands up if you knew that tent wasn't fitting in the saddle bag...
Good tip about the chairs. I have the Nemo stargazers which are comfy as hell but if space is a premium I’ll pack the helinox.

Great suggestion!
Slip down? He has a ton of useless junk. Unlike him i actually wheel the Rubicon
@@TheOnlyBlackInMeWasWillieBrown what did you consider useless from your many trips to the Rubicon?
@@TheOnlyBlackInMeWasWillieBrown Im not seeing that.
I like the note tip, I am going to do this.
Love my Geyser shower. Nothing like a hot shower before bed after long day on trail. (I know kinda bourgi😅)
You forgot your first aid kit
Good point! I don’t “pack” it (or my fire extinguisher) because they live in the Jeep all the time.
Rain gear for when a 20% chance of showers turns into 20 hours of rain. 😉🤣
I was definitely underprepared for that and had to abandon Paul for Matt’s Jeep with heated seats. 😂
@@HarrySituations I made a new 'rule' about always carrying the window panels on the #LX45 no matter what after that!

I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve been on the trail. I started going as a kid and typically go 3-4 times a summer.

Good question, I should have mentioned that. I have Mac’s Versa-track on the floor that I use to lash everything down.
Other than as a segue for a sponsor plug, why do you have a “Nitto” sticker to demark your cooking gear?
It could be any sticker, I just want something on each box so I can tell them apart.
What’s up Harry, do you take any spare parts?
I generally take tools but not a ton of spare parts. Small things like sensors that don’t take up much room but for bigger things (drivelines, axle shafts) I just limp home if I had issues.

@@HarrySituations thank you sir!

@@donhappel9566I like to keep everything down low also so I can see better on the trail.
nothing to poop in... lugable loo? stool stool? bucket? shovel?
On the Rubicon there are outhouses now but I do carry a shovel as part of my recovery kit and always have mini Kleenex packs in the door of the Jeep.
There's plenty of spots on th con that you can do a scrub an dub
You mean like at Buck Island? Where there is footage of us swimming in this video?
Threw some beer and liquor, MREs and a sleeping bag and sent it. That's all you need if your rig is built.

🤔 guess you won't approve of my camping espresso maker.
Exactly... really don't need any of this.
With a built rig all you need is beer and liquor, MREs and a sleeping bag and just send it.
