    CUSTOM TRUE OFFROAD POPUP CAMPER

    Yes. I actually came up with a basic design for the mounts. They would mount on the side of the roof and come up to the crossbars of your choice.

    CUSTOM TRUE OFFROAD POPUP CAMPER

    The camper has a forced air furnace run by a digital thermostat (maintains a 2 degree deadband). I also installed a ignition control board that controls the furnace fan (most do not). That way if you have 3 consecutive ignition failures, the fan will turn off rather than blowing cold air and...

    CUSTOM TRUE OFFROAD POPUP CAMPER

    FYI, the furnace also has a fan controlling ignition board. So if the furnace fails to light (no propane, battery too low, etc), it will lockout the fan and keep it from blowing cold air and killing your battery. These control boards are not standard on RV/camper furnaces, but they are...

    CUSTOM TRUE OFFROAD POPUP CAMPER

    Forced air furnace with digital thermostat. No cooling, but I use the roof vent/fan and open the windows if it's hot. It also has two oscillating 12v fans for the interior. I considered installing a 5000btu window AC unit, but never did as we normally camp at high altitude (8,000'+) during...

    1997 Land Cruiser & custom offroad popup camper- $40,000

    I'm sure there are people with a lot of different expectations. The expo world tends to like AT style trailers. Been there, done that, which is why I built this trailer. It has room for a family, and is WAY more comfortable with lots of creature comforts, amenities, and storage. Plus it tows...

    Tacoma4life's camper build

    Really nice build. I did an offroad popup build this spring. It is a smaller box and can handle some fairly difficult trails, but is just as comfortable at a campground. For me and my locale, the furnace is key...:sombrero: Here's the link...

    Best way to gain ground clearance on a Pop-up camper

    I lifted to clear 33s w/o wheel wells. To keep the COG low, I mounted a 35gal water tank below the deck, above the axle and between the tires. I think my popup can run basically any trail a military/offroad trailer can go. The advantage I have is a furnace, running water, hot water, all...

    Lock N Roll bolt thread failure

    FYI, I had an absolutely terrible experience dealing with LNR this spring. After months, I finally had to demand my money back. Keep in mind, I was patient, kind, and unstanding in dealing with them to a fault. Martyn is too kind. Not only do they have terrible customer service, but they...
