Custom Built Sleep Platform w/ Drawers

[Kx4019]

I just got back home from a 14 Day Road Trip. This is my set up. Back seats removed. I built this and it weighs about 50 lbs more than the removed seats. Platform was bolted down in 4 spots. Two are rear seat mounts and when you remove the back deck cover there’s two more hidden mounts. I drilled thru the cover to get to the mount bolts. I installed rubber plugs on the deck cover. This set up worked really really good. I had two usb fans (one mounted on each rear molle panel. I used a Ecoflow 2080 watt hour battery and their 800 watt alternator charger. I also have a Setpower PT35 ac/dc fridge/freezer. Only had to charge the battery every 4 days. I have a 28”x75”x6” memory foam mattress. The platform has a folding shelf extension that I used when sleeping other wise it stayed folded up. I'm 6'0" and I fit perfectly. Let me know what y’all think.

That’s really nice! Great job.

Nice work. You must have experience in fabrication as this looks like a factory produced build.

I’m an aircraft mechanic of 37 years so I have some fabrication skills. I do go overboard when I build things..

That's a great looking platform,! I also like those molle panels! who's the manufacturer of those molle panels? If you don't mind sharing?
Thanks in advance

Those interior molle panels are from Cali Raised LED. I went with theirs because they use existing mounting points with no additional holes to drill.

Details on the power station mount. I run the same thing with the alternator charger. Power station just sits there but i'd love something to secure it down. Thanks in advance

Very nice build. I did the same on my 1998 3rd gen back in the day when I lived in SW Colorado and camped everywhere. Now I'm a lot older and just bought a 6th gen and tow an overland trailer and miss the simplicity of your great rig!
