I actually dont have the jeep yet haha, just trying to gather as much info as I can ya knowunrelated sorta, but you got the 4.0 or the 2.5?
Also tint or drape the windows so people can't see you sleeping.
Oh cool, thank you man. I’ll definitely keep that in mindfair enough, if options exists though get the 4.0 , bullet proof motor and overall better mpgs than the 4 cylinder ... both r terrible on gas though . maybe grab an old ford ranger Better mpgs, and not much smaller.
Agree with @Hazardoussix6six get the 4.0 I have owned 2 in the past. Sleeping for me was cramped like @Dmac says but reliable AF and parts easy to get at salvage yard.Oh cool, thank you man. I’ll definitely keep that in mind
parts are super cheap agreed, and bountiful! had a bunch myself in old jeep comanches. long bed 90s ranger would be my choice to tramp in. camper top room to comfortably layout and solid mpgs. an once again cheap parts everywhere.Agree with @Hazardoussix6six get the 4.0 I have owned 2 in the past.

That is awesome. Thanks for showin us manEven the 6' regular bed works pretty well; tall folks can sleep on the diagonal for over 7' of space. Plus small pickups have detents in the bed and wheelwells that allow one to make a deck from two 2x4s.. It's really to carry 4'x8' sheets (getting them elevated over the wheelwells) but put those boards across and throw some plywood across and you're sleeping off the cold, wet steel bed.
Cheap plastic underbed storage bins fit perfect under there, and are invisible when the tailgate is closed.

Topper was a $25 craiglist find; some dude's wife wanted it gone. I ended up putting a 60w solar panel on top and feeding a marine-type battery that lived under the deck. Ran lights, fan, and phone charger off that.
