Pajero Backbone System Install & Factory Rail Removal: Rooftop Tent Ready

Описание: #MitsubishiPajero #PajeroBackbone #RoofRackInstall #PajeroGen4 #4WDMods

Hi guys, welcome back! Or if you’re new to the channel, welcome.

In this video, I take you through removing the factory roof rails on my Mitsubishi Pajero Gen 4 (NT) and installing a backbone mounting system — the correct way to support a roof rack, rooftop tent, awning, and touring loads.

If you’re planning to run serious gear on your Pajero, the factory rails just aren’t designed for it. A backbone system spreads the load across the roof structure properly and gives you a solid, safe foundation for touring and off-road travel.

🔧 What’s covered in this video:

✅ Removing factory Pajero roof rails
✅ Accessing and preparing factory roof mounting points
✅ Step-by-step backbone system installation
✅ Sealing tips to prevent water leaks
✅ Why factory rails aren’t suitable for heavy loads
✅ Real-world touring and weight considerations

🚙 Why upgrade to a backbone system?

Factory rails are fine for light loads, but once you start adding:
• Roof racks
• Rooftop tents
• Awnings
• Recovery gear
• Solar panels

…a backbone system is essential to stay safe and within roof load limits.

A Personal Note from Me:
Hey guys, if you’ve been following my journey, you know I’m all about practical 4WD builds, camping setups, and gear that actually works in the real world. This backbone install is a big step in my Pajero touring build, and I’m keen to keep sharing what works — and what doesn’t — to help you with your own setups.

Thanks for watching, and I’ll see you on the next adventure! 🚀🏕️🚙
