Folks, here is how I chose to build my bed platform. Thousands of different ways, but this worked for me best in the last truck, so I decided to keep the same form factor. Below are some Amazon Links for the items I used in the build of this. I might have missed some things, but just shoot me a comment if you have any questions!

I love your attention to detail. I'm looking for a new rig to set up for my hunting/fishing/camping and I really enjoyed your ideas. I like to spread out a bit when I sleep, so maybe a bit wider of a bed for me. I really like the cabinet and the way everything is wired up and easily accessed from bed. Oh, I have such a long way to go, but the journey is always half the fun.

Great build! I plan to follow your lead. And your garage looks amazing! May I make a suggestion, if you need to level out your bed, have you thought about taking some blocks with you to drive up on? That might be easier than utilizing the furniture levelers. Just 4 scrap 2x6’s about 10” would probably be perfect. Or you can get plastic ones. You could keep them stored under your bed in case you need them.

That looks great! This is dumb but I don’t understand how you did the wiring……I got everything else. My friend from work and I are going to make something similar for her truck. How do you splice into the wire? Thanks this is a great build!

I put the “wire taps” in the description if you want to check those out. The directions on the link will be far better than what I can write in this comment😉

You've got me thinking...I looked at triFold foam mattresses. Torn between your setup and using the 4 or 6 inch trifold. Did you consider those and choose the solid foam for a reason?
@BrianWatersOutdoors
@BrianWatersOutdoors Год назад
This foam I chose was just east to cut to size and honestly, not sure what type of tri fold mattress you are referring to.

great video!! your bedrug liner is that placed just on top of your truck bed or is your truck bed lined with something else example spray-on or plastic liner?

It’s just on top of the truck ( held on with heavy duty Velcro)

Great build video. I am not sure how you tapped the light wires into the power wires. Is this done via a special connector? Thank you.

Hey Brian, what do you think about ripping 2x4 in half and building bed base?
@BrianWatersOutdoors
@BrianWatersOutdoors Год назад
You could do that. I just used 2x3’s, but 2x2’s should be enough if you brace in the right places 👍🏻

Brian, great looking build. Checked out your foam on Amazon and wanted to ask you is it very firm? I purchased a trifold bed and it was extremely firm and uncomfortable. Having lower back issues I am looking for some foam that will give a bit, not rock solid. What is your experience with your new foam?
@BrianWatersOutdoors
@BrianWatersOutdoors Год назад
I don’t have any issues with my foam. I find it to be fairly comfortable. More plush would be the medium density foam. I got the high density stuff
