Building your Overlanding Vehicle. Where do you Start?? 

Viewers Question: What modifications do I need to make to my new Hilux 4x4 Double Cab? I plan to Overland and tour extensively with my Family.
Here are Mic's Do's & Don't when it comes to modifying your 4WD for Overlanding.
And Mic's list of things you need to look at first when you want to start.
First, Budget, You need to know how much and how long it will take you if you are looking at building the Overlander in stages.
Do not fit cheap gear, it will let you down. Do not compromise the safety of you and your family, and cross-border recovery is very expensive and unpleasant.
Bear in mind as you go on trips, things will change, and you will modify here and there, to make things work for you.
My List:
Tyres. Proper offroad all-terrain Tyres
17" rims
a good tyre pressure monitoring system - It will come in handy!
a good mapping system.
a good canopy
a dusk-proof kit with the canopy
the vehicle electrics - you should not run your camping electrics from the vehicle's main battery.
a good battery management system
a basic toolkit
tyre accessories: Tyre Gauge, Compressor & Deflator
and then last but not least. a 4x4 Suspension upgrade.
