    Customized Kamparoo Offroad Popup Camper!

    Yeah, I sacrificed the storage space in the well for some additional clearance / protection / balance over the axles. Honestly though, after seeing how tall the lift actually turned out to be I probably wouldn' have had an issue with keeping the tank in front of the storage well. That interior...

    Customized Kamparoo Offroad Popup Camper!

    Fridge box is 60" long, 24" high, 18" wide. I had them add in slide out trays on both side, lockable gasketed doors, and the cross ventilation (front and rear side) slats for the fridge. Also had the 4" tray with tie down slots added on top for additional storage. Cost for the box with these...

    Customized Kamparoo Offroad Popup Camper!

    I had two 6" PVC pipes added and lashed to the camper top. These are for the awning poles - a standard awning on one side and the add a room on the other. Given the number of poles both are completely full. Even if I didn't have the Add A Room I would still recommend this dual 6" setup vs the...

    Customized Kamparoo Offroad Popup Camper!

    So many of you are probably wondering what the cost of this was compared to the other options. I can simplify that with a couple of thoughts. 1) For 8k on the TransContinental model, it’s a fantastic option right out of the gate unaltered IMO. Seeing how the camper performed and the quality of...

    Customized Kamparoo Offroad Popup Camper!

    Glen kept me updated throughout the process and I even scheduled a trip up to see the camper prior to completion to ensure everything was as I wanted it (after all, I intend to use this for the next couple decades in some harsh locations). I was picked up and taken to the shop and spent the...

    Customized Kamparoo Offroad Popup Camper!

    With the selection made, I then worked with Glen to lay out what I was looking for in my Kamparoo platform: 1) Clearance : The standard tires are on 14” rims and that wouldn’t keep up with my Jeep. Further I wanted to run the same tires and rims on the trailer as my Jeep (35”) so they could be...

    Customized Kamparoo Offroad Popup Camper!

    By the time I got to this point I was down to the following 2 options: 1) Haultent – I loved this was US made, aluminum (very light), easy to erect, and spacious on the inside. It was also customizable with some of the options I wanted and I felt I could add the rest without big issues...

    Customized Kamparoo Offroad Popup Camper!

    Little did I realize that this was again just the start of yet another decision making process, as there are a gazillion options out there for tow behind campers. So I started narrowing the search: 1) Rugged with good clearance – this eliminated the (IMO) wannabes like Fleetwood, Jayco...

    Customized Kamparoo Offroad Popup Camper!

    I started by researching as much as I could find related to that area, a great source being the Expedition Portal and Jeep Forum websites. I started to draw up my options and then narrow down what was right for me. Now bear in mind my considerations will differ greatly from others and is simply...

    Customized Kamparoo Offroad Popup Camper!

    I meant to put this together much earlier, but time and priorities don’t often follow with intent. My purpose is to share with others my travel down this path to selecting my offroad traveling means so that they might benefit from some of the thought process just as I did from others before me...
