    DIY Composite Flatbed Camper Build

    That makes total sense on the pass through...so nice to have. It's just a serious commitment to cut one in & also permanently lose the bed & potentially could limit your resale... especially on a 1/2 ton. For some reason, I think it may be more reasonable to do so with 3/4 ton or greater as the...

    DIY Composite Flatbed Camper Build

    Rereading some off those thread. Really love your side door. Love LOVE your pass through...that takes serious commitment with your truck though. I have the one in my back window with foam/rubber gasket that came with my shell. (That said? I don't think I can really fit through it very well.) On...

    Four Wheel Camper ‘Project M’

    I'm like many of you...the weight & utility interest me greatly but the lag time & cost for what it is, is a bit frustrating...enough to look at other options or DIY. (DualEx on YouTube did a pretty nice job.) I have a Leer shell/canopy on my 2014 Chevy 6.5' bed CC. On the dust issues...it's...

    DIY Composite Flatbed Camper Build

    I was thinking the same solution...wrap it. I think the reality is it is that it comes down to how much UV it gets. Look at all the RV's that are always stored outside ($30k-$500k rigs) for all seasons. Nothing is harder on them & I won't buy one used unless I can tell how it's been stored. Btw...

    custom camper examples

    Great feedback, thx. I agree 100% about weight up high & being as light as possible. Admittedly, before I bought the tonneau cover I had actually thought it was lighter. While it is probably not as strong as carbon fiber it is already formed, shaped, painted, gel coated & good to go now. It also...
