Default Jeep mounted camping shower

Hi!

I am interested in adding/building a shower setup to my jk. I've seen several out there (i.e. Hot Showers) but they are over $400.

Anyone built one? Or know of a relatively inexpensive aftermarket solution?

going on a multiday trip in May and would love to get it setup ahead of time.

thanks!

IIRC a diagram was posted about how to switch between cams.

Where it is, or what it was called... no clue... sorry.
I think maybe you posted this reply to the wrong post?

Cheapest bet would be a 5-gallon bladder left on the roof to warm up the water. Find the right shower nozzle to attach to it, open it up, stand underneath, and ahhhhh! Just leave it on the roof and let it drain out of the shower nozzle.

IF you can find a big enough Rubber maid and you could store all your gear/food in and it can double up as a warm bathtub!



Picture of my little guy. I use a rubber maid to wash up the kids while camping. Just boil some water on the gas stove and add fresh cold water to the rubber maid.

How about case of water set out in the sun all day. Just rinse, soap, rinse. That is how I bathed for 7 months in Iraq
