3TV's 2-Door Toad Build

[3TV]

Another update done this week, this one more in the preparedness category.

I put together a "get home pack" for my 2-door Jeep. It has everything I will need to live for a week if my Jeep leaves me stranded in the middle of nowhere and I have to abandon it and walk out. It fits perfectly on the American Adventure Labs slide, in front of the fridge, behind the driver's seat, and under the Overland Storage Shelf. And since it slides out with the fridge slide it is easy to access. The backpack will stay in my Jeep at all times.

Contents in the bag include a 20 F Sleeping bag, tent/tarp, emergency blanket, camp stove, fire starter, mess kit, bowie knife, multitool, paracord, carabiners, duct tape, MREs, energy bars, water bottles, life straw, water purifier pills, soap, flashlight, light sticks, TP, 1 wk Rx meds, compass, map, pen, notepad, signal mirror, sewing kit, first aid kit, eyeglasses repair kit. I am debating if I should make up a rucksack that can have a change of clothes. But I think I could wear the same clothes long enough to get somewhere that has cell phone service. I would also like to add a small saw or hatchet to the outside using the molle attachments.

Other items are already in the Jeep and can be grabbed before starting my hike, such as a pocketknife, gloves, coat, more water, etc.

I decided to re-do the get home pack to help it stay more secured in the Jeep. American Adventure Labs built me a Milwaukee Packout mount that fits the front of the fridge slide. It mounts using existing mounting holes, so no holes need to be drilled. The new Packout mount allows me to use a Milwaukee Packout backpack that mounts securely and doesn't move around. And as a bonus the Milwaukee backpack even fits more survival gear than the one that I was using.

Love it! When I visited AAL and talked to Brit and checke out your floor setup, I asked him about mounting my Ecoflow Delta2Max battery on the pullout shelf behind the fridge. He was suggesting not having the battery on the slide. I really want the shelf so I have to be able to pull the fridge out.

Latest addition is a set of Bartact seat covers, center console cover, and storage bag between the seats which doubles as a pet barrier to keep the dogs in the back.

Followed by a fast camel cruise in the high desert so the dogs could check out their new digs. I think this is going to work. It is pet and wife approved. A nice comfortable 2-door that is also trail capable.

Duke voicing his approval.
