The Lightest Drawer System You Can Buy 

Lol!

That’s awesome! I agree on them being a game changer. I was all about using totes before, but drawers make life so much easier.

This is sadly too true!

Guilty. Lol.

Thanks!

Right here in Kentucky!

He definitely is!

See you the John. Your Tall system will be ready and waiting

Merry Christmas!

This is what we were filming when you were there! It was good to see you again - it has been a while!

Awesome! Did you just order, or was yours one of the ones they’re making in the video?

@@RevereOverland I’m Sam, the guy with the 4xE

Oh, right!

There is an option for sleeping platforms

It would work great as long as you have a sealed bed! The fiberglass composite one they have now is still light and is waterproof, but you definitely pay a premium for the material.

@@RevereOverland oh definitely I just don’t want drawer slides due to having the exposed bed and getting grit in them. No matter how good the seal is eventually the slides will fail. When they come out with the uhmv in that one I’d be all in.

I actually haven’t had any issues with mine yet, despite the crazy Oregon dust. I’m sure I’ll have to regrease them eventually though!

@@RevereOverland you mean you're sure that I'll have to regrease them. We know you aren't doing any labor.

They do come assembled. You'd have to call them and ask about the mounting in the 4Runner, since every vehicle is different!

Yes! I have a quick clip in the video showing it.

@@RevereOverland thanks Rob

Give them a call!

Eventually I would like to do the same, as I live in northeastern Tennessee, and by driving up to Kentucky I could be assured of a 'no problem' install.

Yes, we give a discount and install it if you come see us, just call or email us.

Of course you can make it cheaper yourself… when you’re paying someone else to make something, it’s going to cost more. You’re also paying for it to be shipped to your door in that price. That being said, you won’t make it fit this well (with the sides it has?) without an $8,000 scanner and some serious CAD programming. You also won’t get close to this light without importing the same plywood, which has a minimum order of thousands of dollars, and a CNC (which cost $40,000) or a lot of time routing. Also don’t just use wood glue. That’s just asking for it to fall apart.

I’m sure Goose Gear’s drawer system is great too. Do you know how much it weighs?

I’m not certain, but it’s probably similar for a comparable strength aluminum.

Polyurea (aka bed liner)

no durability issues. You can stack more weight on top than the vehicle can hold. All the weight is removed from non structural locations

I should have stood on the top of it!

@@RevereOverland I don’t know, you’ve put on some pounds here lately

I’ve seen you stand on one, so I know I’m good 😉

Rob put on baby weight 😂

No. My wife might, since it’s her Jeep, but I doubt she cares enough.

I can’t find any details on the Goose Gear weight!

It’s much lighter than the goosegear. I haven’t weighed a goose gear but have lifted one. The drawer slides add quiet a bit

@@shaweehillsworkshop4226 for sure! I like lightweight things. GVWR matters. :)

You could 100% replicate this yourself with a $12k scanner, $3k CAD software, $600 spray gun, and a $30k CNC machine! Seriously though: anyone is capable of building a DIY drawer system for less, but people always underestimate the cost of materials and time taken. When we built my 4Runner one, the roll on was $150 (quality spray is closer to $250), the plywood is $180 a sheet, and it took a very long time. You'd also need a sheet of UHMW, which is hundreds of dollars, or you could use the drawer slides that were around $80 a pair for mine. It also won’t be nearly as light, but if that’s not your priority then go for it!

Actually, you could use a router to get the weight down. You still can’t get the plywood though!

Not yet - they’re looking for one to scan!

@@RevereOverland They can Scan mine if they want! I’ll be out that way today

Give them a call!

@@brian_hamlett14 give us a call, we would love for you to come by the shop!

Will any of these work? shwoffroad.com/product/custom-size-ultralite-series-drawer-system-for-any-suv/

@@RevereOverland I’ve seen other companies offer universal SUV drawer systems but then you usually have to build your own gear platform to make sure the lip is level with the floor. Too be honest though if I’m paying that much I expect it to be made specifically for my vehicle.

You should have them scan yours!

I'm not sure you looked at the website correct. Our ultralight drawer systems start at $899

We actually pride ourselves on being made in America right here in the state of Kentucky but being able to compete with the chinese made brands price wise. It's not easy.

Like Wes said, they start at $899 shipped. If you have the skills, you can save a little by building it yourself. If not, you could use totes from Walmart. It won’t be as good or easy to use, but it’ll be a lot cheaper.

@@shaweehillsworkshop4226 - I believe I did see it correctly for what was shown by Rob. . . I saw your ultralight drawer system is unfinished in raw wood, with no sleep platform and no OEM subwoofer is $900.00, but that's not what was reviewed or shown. I'm not disputing your prices. . . I am only providing a subjective opinion that I think the value to quality ratio is not what I or many would consider pragmatic.

@@shaweehillsworkshop4226 I respect that but could counter that there are also many U.S.A craftsmen that would be willing to produce one-offs of equal quality for less. I wish you the best of luck and prosperity in your business endeavors.

Yeah the fiberglass composite and extra long 500 lbs drawer slides are way more expensive than the simple Ultralite systems! It’s what I have in my Tundra though - it’s twice the price of Decked, but has twice the storage space while also being lighter!

I don’t know anyone called Kelvin

@@RevereOverland I mean the power station - "Crafuel".

Hi?

@@Magicgeorgelee hi? My name isn't Kelvin.

Are you the content creator of Revere Overland?

The one in the video is $1,299 currently. Building it is still cheaper, but you’re going to spend a small fortune on the plywood if you want the same lightness.

$899 for a 4th gen 4Runner

They’re $899?

Nice! It looks great and obviously fits perfectly with your cooler!

@@RevereOverland Thanks 😊 It’ll eventually be a fridge for longer trips but for now I have to go with what I can afford. It was rock sliders or a fridge. I think I made the right decision.

I think so too. A cooler is perfectly functional.

That looks really good, and I bet you have more storage space in your half drawer than a complete decked system has as they waste so much space. That was the reason we developed a half drawer system. I am a big proponent of DIY, but we are there for the people who aren't able to.

@@shaweehillsworkshop4226 Thanks a lot! Behind the fridge slide, well cooler slide, is another storage compartment for things like tools, bottle jack, things I don’t need everyday. The tray slide is the best part because I’m short so reaching in the sides is more difficult. It’s easier to bring everything to me so I don’t have to keep climbing or send the kids in after things 😂
