Chris' 2021 Cactus Grey XLT 4x4 "Overland" build

[ReigleCM]

Got tired of waiting on the Lone Peak, ordered an RSI Smartcap and it only took 3 days to come in!

Loving this setup so far! Got it with one full-side bin and one-half bin. Installed my 10-gallon water tank in the rear too. I'll post up some more pics after we got back from the long weekend testing it out!

I also added some topo designs on the sides of the truck and carried them over to the Smartcap.


Got some 1-inch spacers for the front struts because even with a fully loaded bed and the cap, the rear still sits way too high. The spacers in the front will level it out nicely finally. I'll probably throw those on in a few weeks when I have time.

The RSI looks great, I dig the wrap on it for sure!

Beautiful build, probably my favorite of the ones I've seen on this forum. Nothing super tacky, just functional and clean.

The wires I ran through the door trim then pops out under the seat via a slit in the carpet where the radio is mounted.

Curious on how you mounted your radio. Is it attached to the seat or just under it?

Gertrude looks great!

Tested out the setup weekn RMNP, loving it! Still a lot of organization to figure out though.

Made some crossbars from some 15 series extrusion from TNutz and got the MaxTrax and OVS awning installed today.

It’s attached to the seat bracket

Forgot to post pics of the bed setup. I have a 10 gallon water tank in the front connected to a Dometic faucet which is great for filling water bottles.

I have a 12v water pump coming this week and I will hook up a spray nozzle to a hose (in addition to the faucet) for more water pressure for things like rinsing dishes or spraying shoes or what ever.

The fridge is on a slide, but I want to find a longer one.

passenger side cubby isn’t installed yet as the sent me the wrong one. Hopefully go down tomorrow and swap them out and have it installed this week and figure out what to put in it.

Im working out a few different mounting solutions for the water tank. The cargo bar does a good job of keeping it from moving front to back, but still slides left to right a bit. I have a roller cam strap that I’ve also used and that’s doing well from keeping it moving side to side, but trying to figure out a permanent mount solution in the next few weeks.

It’s great that I have the half bin for the passenger side as the tank is super easy to fill right from the side door access.

Got my 12v lights hooked back up using the same switches I had before. I may switch out to the HardKor light bars eventually, but this works for now.

Ditched the Dometic water faucet all together. Just wasn’t that great. Got the water pump all I stalled and all the plumbing finished today. It rules! 40 psi and 10gal of fresh water!

Now we’re ready for some big trips over the next month!

How about a set of sliders...

I added a set of 24 inch sliders under the fridge tray. I'm actually just wrapping up this project as we speak.

Now there’s a good idea! I didn’t even think about this

Fwiw, I reversed the right & left so that pulling the lever up releases the slider. (vs pushing them down to release)

The truck will officially be for sale soon. I will post a for sale thread once I clean it up and get some pictures.

Going to ask $50,000.

It has over $20,000 in modifications, almost all which are listed here in this thread, and only 22,500 Miles. Here is a breakdown of all parts used in the build.

Why you selling after all that hard graft?

I change vehicles every year or so. An opportunity to buy a Prospector XL has come about so I want to snag that!
