DIY Jeep Wrangler JKU Trunk Storage System

[@DMHRC]

Realize this is an older vid but just discovered your channel and im going back and catching up. Really clean build!

[@Aaron-ge1hy]

Great job! Appreciate your resourcefulness, as well as your honesty on what went right and what went wrong as you went along. Well done, brother. Jeep on!🖐🏼

[@skiko101]

This man needs more views. I'm not even a jeep guy, but the videos are well put together.

[@BaptismOverland]

And this video is super old! Lol

[@NotSoRusty1]

you gave me an AWESOME idea for my Jeep. THANKS for sharing!

[@toddcathey8848]

Really nice job. It has given me some ideas. Much appreciated.

[@tgreisen]

As soon as I saw your hat at the beginning, I subbed! I know you’re a good man because we share the faith and are fellow Jeepers. I’m figuring out what I’m going to do with the back of my JK. I want to be able to sleep back there too.

[@Antho2529]

very clean and minimalist design, i love it! all the pullout drawers are nice untill you actually need the trunk!

[@BaptismOverland]

EXACTLY why I built it this way. The jeep is a daily driver man...still need the trunk lol

[@MrStatic101]

Very very nice man. Also loved that you gave a detailed list. Very helpful

[@illuminaughty1911]

this is the cleanest DIY storage i've seen. just earned yourself another sub my dude.

[@BaptismOverland]

Thanks!

[@martinpelayo8172]

One of the best videos I’ve seen.

[@squizzyt8698]

Brilliant job...well done mate

[@lesstraveled4740]

Nice build. Love the magnetic aspect!

[@CoffeeChaos]

Came out looking really nice! Added to the modes list for my Jeep! Thanks for the great video!

[@Bookerdevin101]

Those Pelican cases 😍😍😍

[@johndeeretimex]

This is a great system! Great work done here

[@santiago71Q]

Nicely done. I was thinking of making it with slide out rails for easier access. Maybe a slide out table as well. If you had a 3" gap on the bottom you could slide a folding table. Just some ideas

[@BaptismOverland]

LOL! I'm laughing because check my channel. I actual got rid of this system last year and built a whole new one with drawers and such. Take a look at the new build. It was done in 4 parts.

[@BaptismOverland]

I even have a cutting board now too.

[@santiago71Q]

@@BaptismOverland Sorry man I should have looked but it was the first one thatha popped out on KZbin. I'll have a look. Thanks

[@BaptismOverland]

@@santiago71Q oh no you're good!! I actually like that this video is still being watched. Lol. That being said I wrote that because i agreed with your comment 100% which is why I did a whole new overhaul hahaha

[@santiago71Q]

@@BaptismOverland awesome 😎. I'll have to watch your update

[@family5athletes]

Great job young man...building to your needs is a great option.

[@Airkoay]

Thanks for sharing man. Very nicely done and clean looking. There are so many genius Jeep owners that can come up with these cool ideas. I may to have steal part of your plan on mine as well, definitely the magnet piece:)

[@OGBB33]

That’s bad A$$! I like the size u made. Very functional and easily removable. Cool touch with pelican boxes.

[@ericlohr6036]

Nice job!

[@InjunOutdoors]

Great build! This is the best one I have seen yet. I checked out the commercial and other home made ones but this is my favorite so far.

[@mikerogers6511]

Nice do it yourself build!

[@valmurray869]

Nicely done video. You have given me some ideas for my own storage solutions. I love your hat.

[@jeffflinn1463]

Great idea. Nice video also

[@saleen12]

Sick work man. I'd love to see a video of the pelican case kits contents and what you keep in the box as well!

[@BaptismOverland]

Yeah man will prob make videos of that when i get more gear to put in it!

[@dannyn1698]

Very nice!

[@markrogers6681]

Great build, couple quick questions: 1. Would you be able to lock the box? 2. How would this hold up if it got wet? 3. Would there be a way to make it waterproof, I would be worried that the wood would warp if it got wet. TIA

[@Spyyyder1]

Mark Rogers Nailing a sheet of roofing tarpaper to all the sides or raptorlining the whole thing would it waterproof quite easily

[@maggiedonovan]

Awesome build ❤️

[@410Expedition]

excellent build! I like the Pelican case accessibility.

[@TheRickTurner]

Great video.

[@mattmaster2582]

Great video man, I got some good ideas from this nice build!

[@steviecarbone4052]

Nice job with the build, great video!!👍

[@autodidact9122]

Very cool. Nice build.

[@augustoarcemarin8497]

great video bro

[@hunterwhitworth1271]

That’s how I always cut my grooves, easiest way👍🏼

[@markchavis3501]

Great idea and I like your delivery. It gets to the point without a bunch of filler. Awesome how attention to detail you are. What size and model are the Pelican Cases that you used?

[@RJ-bv2om]

Wonderful! I wanted to do similar setup for my 2018 jk

[@Creed2486]

Very cool! Can't wait to watch your videos and channel grow! Would you ever consider taking orders for the box? Love this look and setup.

[@BaptismOverland]

Hey man thanks! I could possibly do it but the shipping might be a a hassle lol.

[@_saber_six3830]

Great work! Super nice.

[@garygomer7940]

Nice job, I like it. Thanks for sharing!!

[@garykos1308]

Nice!

[@fitnessplatoon]

Amazing video - keep this going boz

[@siremington]

NICE

[@greggschrumpf8099]

Nice video, so after having it and using it, anything you would change or do differently?

[@Mydailydadlife]

Great build brother. Love the music too!!

[@timelessadventurer]

This is awesome!

[@reliableprinters8103]

VERY NICE. LOOKS SHARP. NEW SUB

[@Super-Schopenhauer]

very nice video ! U deserve more views !

[@rb30athorn]

Yup that's how it starts, Ive build a DIY sleeper removing the back seat, dual battery set up then a power inverter, then a solar panel , small electric heater, fan, black out windows with insulation, roof rack with DIY rack for pioneer tools jerrycans and max tracks. You got the flu, ain't it fun?

[@jefftrowercreative]

awesome job!

[@229Reaper]

hey great job man,really like the pelican magnet thing.

[@ABD4VIDS]

Great job and vid!!

[@stevealesi489]

Very cool design! Approximately what is the weight of that bad boy?

[@BaptismOverland]

Not too bad. It IS a bit heavy (I'm guessing maybe 30 lbs??) so keep that in consideration but I found that a lot of stuff people are building to put in the back of their jeeps are just as heavy anyway. I know trunk drawers etc tend to be heavy also.

[@papajinx5231]

Would that center hole be big enough for a fire extinguisher?

[@BaptismOverland]

I actually had mine in there for awhile :) but it kept slipping and sliding. I put the strap in there as well but then it was so narrow that it was hard to wrap the strap around the extinguisher. I don’t want to have to fiddle with it in emergency situations

[@bhobbs31]

Do you have room for the freedom panels back there?

[@BaptismOverland]

I do but it's awkward because of the levels on it. That's why I built a new system that utilizes the room a lot more. You can see that build on my channel

[@browneye1369]

Great build. Especially the Pelican cases. How does it hold up off road? Love the HE>i hat too. God bless

[@BaptismOverland]

It’s held up great! It’s pretty snug in there. Inside the tool box though there’s a magnet strip to hold tools and it tends to pop off when I hit bumps so I’m going to have to remove that altogether

[@ldsnurse9268]

Where did you get the “first aid” and “recovery“ stickers?

[@BaptismOverland]

I do graphic design so I made them myself with my vinyl cutter :)

[@briandragoo9125]

What size pelican box did you use?

[@maipuwebo]

Flip the wood cutting blade around to cut soft metal like that

[@edwardbusse2347]

Impressive...

[@805gregg]

3/4" plywood is overkill, 1/2" or even 3/8" would work fine

[@BaptismOverland]

Normally yes. But where I live, there’s a lot of humidity in the air. 1/2 and 3/8 plywood tends to start warping after a few years so I made sure the outside was as rigid as I could get it. It’s held up fine. The interiors are 1/2 though

[@Chris-by1su]

My cat's name is Samson and he enjoys rides in the Jeep

[@BaptismOverland]

Hahaha dope!

[@jonjonword6222]

How did you make the labels for the cases?

[@BaptismOverland]

Designed them and then used a vinyl laser cutter. If you don’t have one though you can design something and send it to a company that prints our car vinyl stickers. There’s tons out there like carstickers.com or even sticker mule

[@Heartlanddualsport]

Very nicely done sir, enjoyed your video so much we subbed you as well. We recently added a Jeep to our channel as well. Like you looking for additional storage that wont kill the bank, I found your video. Keep up the great work looking forward to seeing more from your channel my friend. Dale

[@allday9342]

🔥🔥🔥my dude

[@kidyoda]

Where did you find the magnets? I can't find them, it's frustrating lol

[@BaptismOverland]

Ace hardware and even Lowe’s or Home Depot has them. There’s a whole rack of magnets

[@fletcheroverland4236]

Great job. That turned out really well and your editing skills are far above my own. :) We look forward to checking out more of your projects and adventures. Check us out on fb and ig.

[@BaptismOverland]

Doing that now and following you guys for sure!

[@anicetopontillas8121]

Are you Pinoy??

[@BaptismOverland]

Yep!

[@anicetopontillas8121]

@@BaptismOverland I'm also Pinoy. DO you have the measurements for your drawer system. I don't have any power tools so I will need them precut at Home Depot.

[@BaptismOverland]

@@anicetopontillas8121 for the new version? I’ll have to measure it. I don’t have it on hand anymore but the best thing is to just measure your cargo area yourself and see what you can fit and how you want it to fit

[@tomekapompey563]

You can find nice Instructions on woodprix if you like to build it

[@anthonygallo3576]

Here is the thing.... Wood, does not belong in an automobile. Other than that giid video

[@BaptismOverland]

Old video. I actually have a new system now. But it's still wood and I haven't had any problems at all. It's been great. Coated with truck liner and haven't had any rotting. Is there a reason wood doesn't belong in a vehicle?

[@NoNo_Notlikethat]

Love the content, but had to mute it. The music is TERRIBLE. The repetitive guitar plucking sounds like a car alarm going off, and made me wanna toss my phone. But the build was cool. So... yeah, thank you for the cool ideas!

[@McFlysGarage]

Dude puts holes in pelican cases....no Just no

[@BaptismOverland]

A LOT of people do when mounting them. That’s what they’re made for.

[@markrpope3]

fade out the music while you are talking. It is annoying. You have a lot of background noise from machinery too. What is that. Annoying! Does not sound like when noise which has a very low frequency on microphones.

[@davontemartin5752]

Pro tip don’t buy a Jeep

[@Dimagiorp]

Davonte Martin it’s ok bud not everyone can afford one

[@davontemartin5752]

Dimagio rp its not the money it that they are actually crap compared to my land cruiser

[@Dimagiorp]

Davonte Martin I guess the fact that they have been proven for years means nothing to your uneducated statement... Good job

[@davontemartin5752]

Dimagio rp and so has the LC, I’ve owned a Jeep I liked it for some time but when it comes down to the maintenance my LC has proven superior Jeeps and land cruisers came out around the same time and have done equally as well over the year but lately I haven’t been impressed with jeeps, but hey if you want to talk about uneducated your the one that came out fighting saying a couldn’t afford one 🤙🏽
