I'll admit it, my wife and I love a good camp shower after a long day of MTB'ing. The Rebel Off-Road rack keeps shining with it's endless mounting configurations so I decided to add an EccoTemp hot water shower under the 23 Zero cube. All it takes is a propane source and a 12v water pump to enjoy a rinse before bed.

I went with a SEAFLO 3.0 GPM 45psi 12V pump from Amazon with 1/2" OD barb and some tubing to match from Home Depot. I also added a quick disconnect at the shower end to remove the tubing when taking out the tank in the bed for winter. Just hook up the shower to the 10lb propane tank, squeeze the trigger and you're clean!

Treat yourself to a hot shower on the next adventure or keep your hands from freezing while doing dishes in the morning... or both.

This would just about be a requirement to get my better half to spend more then 1 night in the woods with me. This looks great.
Gotta do what it takes :) The reliance toilet was the first ever glamping purchase I made years ago to get the other half to be interested in dispersed camping... snowballed from there obviously. Ha

How much water total can you carry in that tank in your bed?

Nice idea though

Like the setup with the shower. Will definitely add when I get to the overlanding stage.

It looks like you have a tonneau cover that works with the Rebel rack. What brand/model is that?

Thanks

Nice set up.
I went with the Joolca nomad kit. Just got the 42l water tank and 5lb propane tank in. Working on mounting brackets for it. Once the bed rack comes in I’ll be able to set it all up. I’ll post pictures when done.

It is an Access Lite Ride cover. Rebel has them on the website.

That is a slick setup. Very well done. I've considered OBW for the convenience of spraying down gear and dishes.

I have a small Coleman Solar Shower bag (basically just a five gallon black bag with a hose) that I throw in to my kit as an afterthought. Otherwise, I use biodegradable wipes. Not having a proper shower onboard gives me a reason to stop in town at a community center or something and explore every once in a while/meet new people in new places, stock up on supplies, etc. If I were going to do it though, it would be very similar to your setup.
