Build for Jeep Wrangler Sahara JK

[SamP.]

Hi,
we just purchased a used JK and want to customize it for our needs.
It already has a roofrack (Ghobi), various AEV customizations, a winch, suspensions etc...

Nothing has been modified inside. As we live in Germany there aren't as many options to have something built for the JK. Now I am thinking fo doing it myself or using a combination of buying some parts and fitting them.

What we are looking for:
- interior sleeping option, rear seats removed (for now...a roof bed later)
- an option for storage drawers in the trunk (rear seats in)
- extended option for storage with the seats removed (bed option)

- we hunt so a lockable option for the rifles would be great
- we have a dog, hence he always needs a safe space while driving
- a fridge that can be removed when not needed
- any other cool gadgets

I have looked at various DIY builts from wood. Personally I prefer a mix between aluminum rails and wood. Most preferencial would be an aluminum drawer set up, but I ahven't found any in Germany. I would also order these and fit them myself. Or a mix of the above.

I would be happy for any input, also if it only fits one of the aspects from above, always good to see ideas.
If there are good threads already kindly link them, I couldn't really figure out the search option so didn't find what I was looking for.

Thanks a lot and looking forward to your input.
Sam

There's a guy on youtube (me) who posted a video of his sleeping arrangement in his JKU. Get ready for some poor camera work, but it might give you some ideas. My Jeep sleeps four comfortably and sets up in minutes.

Great Thanks for the input and teh video, some good ideas. Yeah one day it will be a roof top option, but for now we will fix something inside. Any ideas on aluminum option, maybe a company where the boxes can be bought and self installed?

I’m not knowledgeable about any of the ones made for Jeeps however I’ve seen that Ronny Dahl’s father (I think) uses a small filing cabinet in the back of his. I’m sure there has to be a solution out there for much less than the auto aftermarket solution.
