Drawer System and Water Tank and Slide

[Yotayuppy]

So this will be my first post here! Happy to be apart of the overland community and I’ve been hitting it hard since I got my 2010 T4R.
After going down to goblin valley and taking totes and totes with me I decided I wanted something a little cleaner.

Everything in this build was purchased at Lowe’s or a local RV store near me.
Except for the Pump and accessory panel those are from Amazon.

If you would like greater detail or want more information on a specific part of the build let me know and I will edit this post or reply to you.

For now I’m just going to go picture heavy.
All said and done it Cost me about $350 and 80+ hrs of labor!!
It was my first project like this so be gentle with the critiques.
If I could do it again I think I could build it for under 250$

Looks amazing. Great work. I'm looking at doing something like this as well.

That looks great, nice job! It's very similar to the one I built for my Jeep. My camping equipment fits perfectly right next to the cooler. I like that water solution, very cool!

Excellent work!!

Looks clean and functional. Love the water idea. Nice to have running water!

 

[KonzaLander]

I like that.

How do you refill the water tank?

I like that.

View attachment 97114 I cut a 2” hole in it and JB plastic welded a threaded cap on it.
Original plan was to use a drop in pump through that hole but then things changed and now it’s just a fill/cleaning hole

It’s a 10 gal RV tank I got from a local RV store.
Also thanks.
I’m currently building a few updates so everyone check back soon.

Updates are done!! Raised the platform 2” allowing for slide out cutting-board/work surface. Also decided my dads 25yr old Coleman was a little big for a single guy so with the added clearance I decided to add a pullout drawer with a single burner stove.
Also traded in my table for a better one with built in chairs.

2 other updates I forgot to mention. Hinged top with platform above pullout drawer for more storage and kitchen sink sprayer for shower and dishes and water control. View attachment 100506View attachment 100507

Great Job! This is a great idea. I suppose you could at some point divert to an ABS pipe on the roof and have a solar shower too. I may have to do something like this.

Great job, thanks for all the pics. I'm planning to build something like this for the back of my F-150. Now that I have the RTT Rack installed on it and won't be able to open the side of the Diamondback cover where the tailgate is I want a drawer slide system similar to this that will make getting things in and out of the back of my truck easier. For now my heavy Rotomold coolers, long term I will have a portable refrigerator and slide for the kitchen drawer system I plan on building.
