I have a 66" bed but have a 75" milliard tri-fold mattress. I put a folddown extention with fold down legs to end on bed frame.. Couple this with a DAC truck tent and lots of room.

Great video - So simple; but, elegant in design. Easy to remove too so you can use your truck if needed. The treaded inserts are a great idea to take apart and reassemble. $144 is affordable and look what you get.

ive looked at a lot of these designs, some intracite and some simple. This is the best laid out Value minded set up ive seen Very well done, easy to build and you have put together the video in a simple follow along manner. The mattress cover is a nice touch too. The only thing you really didnt cover was securing the completed project into the truck bed. Other than that, looks like a great easy set up that is functional and easy.
@gagodfrey
@gagodfrey 6 месяцев назад
I don't secure it in the truck bed. Gravity & the friction of the bed rug does that for me. I drove from GA to ND and hunted for 7 days with the bed in place and it never shifted or fell over. It worked perfectly! So that's another advantage...no fussing around with attaching it to the truck bed.

Hi G2 Outdoor, that was easy, economical great project. Thanks for sharing your ideas. I noticed your bed rail system in your truck is that stock or you made that too? Where did you get the metal that you used for your bed rails. Thank you and continue sharing more videos. More power 👍

I’m interested in doing this build for my truck. I would assume by now you’ve really gotten to put this thing to the test so my question is, have you had any issues with it wanting to rock? The way the 2x4 was mounted on top of the supports I was curious if you had any issues with this. Do you think I would find any more stability with attaching the runner 2x4 to the side of those supports instead of on top? This would obviously decrease the clearance in order to access totes underneath but my support legs will be roughly 12-13” tall so I don’t want it to rock. Any insight would help! Thanks!
@G2Outdoors
@G2Outdoors 3 года назад
No issues whatsoever. I drove all over the country with this exact setup and slept many nights in it. It's completely stable and didn't have any issues even when taking the truck off road.

It doesn't slide. The Bed Rug and the weight of it solves that problem. I've driven hundreds of miles with it and it's never moved an inch.
@rebeccarogers8958
@rebeccarogers8958 Год назад
This is great! Looks easy enough for me to build. Question though, if the top is 37" wide, wouldn't the slide out underneath need to be less than 37"? Thanks!
@G2Outdoors
@G2Outdoors Год назад
It could be that I messed up the slide measurement. I can't remember specifically since it's been a couple years since I built it. But yes...the slide needs to be slightly less wide than the top to account for the legs.
