Lexus GX470 sleeping platform

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

Walking you through my very basic sleeping platform. I kept seeing complicated ones that require wood working hands. This was cheap, easy and simple.

    Ended up getting a GX and want to do something similar. How do you like the setup now that you’ve had it for a while? Do you find having no other leg supports on the platform that goes on top of the seats to be an issue? Or is it fully sturdy? Also any chance you have a photo of what the back side of the main frame looks like where you have the bolts that lock into the moveable piece?

    I'll try to make a more thorough video asap! Please tune in soon for that. As far as no legs for the one that rest above the seats, 0 issues. Just use towels under the boards however to preserve your leather. Dont want wood against the seats

    yelo autosports sweet glad this setups working out for you. Yeah I was going to just wrap the entire sheet on both sides with the carpet but might consider using a towel or something too. Hopefully gonna build one like this this week. Would love to see the new video if you make it in time. Thanks!

    yelo autosports any chance you can tell me the exact height of the main storage area? I tried measuring today to see where it would sit level over the seats but it’s hard to tell, did you do 12.5”? I’m hoping to build this tomorrow, not sure if I can wait any longer for your next video! Thanks
