Show me your overlanding set up!

[GigaRaptor]

Keeping things light and modular. Built for both overlanding and off-roading, I can add/ remove anything within 10 minutes as needed.

Billibars crossbars setup with awning bracket
ikamper mini 3.0 tent
180 eezi awn dragonfly mini Awning
shovel & mount
ironman 50l water tank
20l fuel jerry can and mount (smittybuilt)
sliding tray (loadslider) w/ custom bolt-on brackets to fit without drilling the tub
ARB twin pump + air tank setup behind rear passenger fender

+ other stuff (icom radio, recovery gear...etc.) and a cool custom made pressurized water system which you'll find on my build thread soon

That is a great looking setup. #goals

Phase 1 of my overlanding setup. Kuat Ibex. Test fit in half height but prefer it at full height.

How are the bed racks attached? Clamps? Did you guys have to insert spacers in the stake pockets? it seems the plastic trim is all hollow and would just crumble under weight.

I'm assuming that's a water tank and not fuel, can you give a link for it?

the big grey one is water - Ironman 50 liter tank

The smaller green one is fuel - a standard 5 gallon metal can

@GigaRaptor good looking setup !
I was looking forward at getting something similar, since there doesn’t seem to be a rack compatible with the EGR rolltrac bed cover at the moment apart from the Kuat.

trying to make a daily driver setup that could be ready at a moments notice to go for drive and camping in the desert.

talked to Xtrusion Overland to see if they would have something for the RR, and it is apparently in the works
Wait and see

Smittybilt Scout trailer.

*thread resurrection*
Nice setup, I'm looking at doing the same. My truck is my daily so I don't need a pop up tent and camp kitchen in the back 24/7.
How are you liking that trailer so far?

We use a trailer, so I’m no help

This is a great picture, Mark. We hope you enjoyed camping and that you're still enjoying your Ranger!

I’m sitting here hmmming and hawing over my future cover / rack / RTT combo. Currently leaning Diamondback HD with 2 front runner racks that allow the cover to open when nothing big is mounted (found a pic from someone who did this). It’s pretty streamlined for the 90% of other time I’m driving around. But might forego the racks and just use the front runner support bars instead. I’m also intrigued by the iKamper Raconteur racks, but not available for Rangers yet. I’m having an hard time being patient for products to catch up to our new model. Anyway, show me your setup!

Is that your Casita in the background? If so, how do you like it? We are considering all of those similar fiberglass/artisan camper brands and specifically looking at the Casita Freedom model (we want a dinette area and a dedicated bed).

I've decided to go a different route and get a camper cover with a rack for kayaks. So I'm going to sell these, Yakima ladder racks

Your Ranger looks AMAZING!

The Smitybilt Scout is awesome. Bought it used and it did great the entire trip. Like that I can take it on any trail the truck can handle. You can camp at some amazing locations!

Nice, thanks for the info!

Do you happen to have any pics of how the rack attaches to the bed?
(assuming you haven't sold the rack already). Thanks!

Well I just did a quick look and I'll have to get on the computer when I'm back in town, having trouble finding any decent photos. But you can see it mounted on the Maverick I had for a little while, and then the Ranger Raptor.

Thank you @RapRanger21 - the photos confirm I can mount this with the plastic bed rails (which is what I was hoping to see). Appreciate the photos!
