Overland Rigs Built for Rugged Exploration
Engineered for explorers who don't stick to the map. Suspension, armor, rooftop tents, auxiliary power, and complete overland systems — built in Fayetteville, Arkansas and tested on the trails that surround our shop.
What Makes an Overland Rig Different
An overland rig isn't just a truck with a lift kit. It's a self-sufficient vehicle engineered to take you further from pavement and keep you comfortable when you get there. Sleeping setup, cooking, water storage, auxiliary power, lighting — all integrated into a package that works together.
At OZK Customs, we build overland rigs on the platforms people actually use — Tacomas, 4Runners, Tundras, F-150s, Rangers, Broncos, Silverados, Colorados, Gladiators, and Ram trucks. Every build starts with how you use your vehicle.
We know overlanding because we've done it — camping out of rigs, crawling up fire roads, cooking under the stars. Being based in the Ozarks means we're surrounded by some of the best backcountry east of the Rockies.
What We Build Into Every Rig
Suspension & Lifts
Icon, Fox, King, Bilstein, Old Man Emu, Dobinsons — matched to your truck, your terrain, and your payload.
Armor & Protection
Bumpers, rock sliders, skid plates — protecting your rig's vulnerable points without unnecessary weight.
Rack & Storage Systems
Roof racks, bed racks, and modular storage — engineered to carry your gear securely.
Rooftop Tents & Shelter
iKamper, Roofnest, 23Zero — properly mounted with weight-rated racks and sensible ladder placement.
Auxiliary Power & Electrical
Lithium battery banks, solar panels, inverters, and lighting — sized for your actual power needs.
Kitchen & Water Systems
Slide-out kitchens, stove setups, water storage, and filtration — from simple stations to full galley configurations.
Why Professional Overland Builds Matter
Weight-Matched Systems
Suspension, racks, and armor are all weight-bearing components. We match every component to your actual loaded weight for proper ride quality and safety.
Electrical Integration
Auxiliary batteries, solar, and lighting all need to be properly fused, wired, and isolated from your vehicle's starting system. One wrong connection can leave you stranded.
Armor That Fits
Every piece of armor we install is spec'd for your exact vehicle — model year, cab configuration, and bed length. No gaps in protection, no mounting stress points.
Trail-Tested Components
Every product we install comes from our Fixed Pricing Menu of components we've used, tested, and trusted across hundreds of builds.
