Excellent worth-while upgrades. Nothing like experience to fine tune a setup. I too am a fan of the OEM Troopy rear bar w/the spare tyre located on its OEM location. Though I wonder how long the plate holder will last in the first sign of corrugation? Maybe design a small bungee cord system to keep the plate from bouncing and be snug. I'd recommend putting boot liner on your camera box. the constant vibration will eventually scratch the body of your (expensive) DSLR and lenses etc. Plus a netting of some sort (maybe 3 or 4 horizontally mounted bungee/shock cord) at the front to prevent it (DSLR) from launching forward, in case of an emergency braking. Fully support you looking after your dog's welfare and happiness first ❤️ I'm sure he'll be better off with you mum 👍

I am really looking forward to sharing this trip with you on YT. I'm hoping to get more use out of my set up this year as it's been all work, work, work. So you never know possibly paths will cross some where although I won't be hunting you down this time with the van on!!!! The camp trip with your Dad is something I'm really looking forward to seeing. Enjoy and be safe. :)

Looks great. Amazing what a difference the small storage changes can make, you’ve given me some ideas. Not a storage related addition, but something I really like is my new struts on the rear doors. Makes getting out a lot easier as the doors ‘automatically’ fold open, plus very handy if it’s windy or you’re parked on a slight angle.

Good morning from cold Germany. At 6.00 am on the first walk with the dogs it was 2°C, brrrr.... A few good improvements, which make it easier. My wife liked the idea with the pockets for clothes. Can you give us the manufacturers/retailers. We're still working on a few things as well. We had a new awning made. The material we have taken from the boat area, waterproof and a top quality. However, again piping to pull in, so that no water can run down the car (kitchen). The idea for a new vehicle is still there, but what as a basis? Honestly, we still do not know what to buy after the IVECO is out for now. Possibly also a UNIMOG, however here we must invest also still really much money. We'll see which solving is on the doorstep at some time. For now, we have to wait and see what happens with the price of diesel, currently you don't need to go very far, much too expensive. Many thanks to Mr. Pution and oil companies, rapacious bloodsuckers. Have fun with the new trip. All the time good journey, no breakdowns, no accident, health, etc.

It is not the big bumps that destroy cameras, it's the small consistent vibrations. May pay to have a talk with your local photo supplier, for a second opinion. Will miss Olly, hope he responds well to treatment.👍😃

A big question mark on how effective that stand up plate holder would cope on rough & corrugated roads tho. How did it go during your short drive? Any issues with clanking & annoying noises coming from that (& your cutlery) drawer? Finally, a portable toilet that doesn't smell? I like the sound of that. Do you mind sharing what brand it is?

What was the brand of the water tank you got, didn’t quite catch the name?. Would also be good to have links to the product in the description, even if they are affiliate links to help fund your vids and trip 👍

Totally awesome setup. I’m in SEQ. We have two channels Land and Bay Fishing and 4x4 TrekOZ. If you find yourselves in our part of the world I would love two camp a night or two with you guys and trade review type videos. I have a Dmax with a Tommy Camper. Regardless really enjoy your vids. Take care, Wayne Groomes.

Do you have a mouse trap or two on board. you know never know what might come to set up housekeeping in your Trooper. rats, mice, snakes, etc. ....have head nets for flies. blow up paddle boards. Avoid John Hollands Track. Nasty Nasty. watch THE OUTFIT for their recent Expedition trip on the track.

Even some of the cheap chinese tyres have 3 ply sidewalls (eg Centara). You're paying for so much marketing with the big name brands. I stuck with Maxxis for years for no good reason but after staking a few tyres I've moved to cheap chinese tyres (something like half the cost) and am having a good outcome and it doesnt hurt so much when a tyre gets destroyed.

Hi Guys, you know I always give an honest review so here goes. Great looking water tank and fits that space well, just wish it was further forward under the car. What's with those frilly cushions guys! Jeez, they're just going to get in the way. Don't go all Instagrammy and Influencer on me! Some great ideas used for storage and budget built, the best way to make them. There's going to be a lot of rattling plates and cutlery and breakages with that system. That could be improved. Best decision made was to leave Ollie at home, he would of added an extra 100KG to your car with food, water etc. And he would of restricted you on your travels. Tyres, not my 1st choice but lets see how they perform. Rubbish bag is cool. Travel Buddy is a waste of space, they promote bad eating habits and power hungry. Lithium battery great idea but 2000W inverter will make you want big power items like coffee machines, travel buddy and induction cooking, not essential for camping, 1000W is plenty. I hope you left your weights at home? Didn't see where you store the gas bottle. Well presented info/vid, thanks. Wishing you both a great lap, enjoy. Marty from Perth

Water tanks brilliant and yes your right would have loved to have it more towards the middle. 16 week wait for a tank that fits above the drive shaft. I agree with you on the pillows 😂 you will have to speak to Megan on that one 😂😂. Cutlery did rattle and has ended up going everywhere so need to figure something else out! Would love to have Ollie but yes weight and his medical problems just wasn’t going to work he’s much happier at home. Time will tell with the tyres so far so good but only done 2000kms.... Lithium battery is going to help a heap especially now running two laptop charges , drone battery’s ,camera battery’s constantly. I was waiting to see if anyone would pickup on the gas bottle. Have not found a spot for it yet so if you have any ideas let me know. Thanks again Marty we appreciate your support mate!

@@itsJackandMegan Hi guys this is Marty's wife Sally and I just want to say that Im so embarrassed by Marty's comments and complaints! He's too brutally honest and can't seem to make suggestions tactfully. And I call him the Weight Nazi - jeez poor Ollie being dissed due to being a big dog. Anyway we do enjoy watching you guys and maybe we will cross paths out on those tracks one day. Oops better go as M is returning from the loo. 😆

That's because the vehicle is a Toyota Landcruiser Troop Carrier (aka 78 Series Landcruiser), and it's colloquially known as a "Troopy"
