2001 GMC 2500 HD Flatbed Camper Build

[hobbsrt]

ok guys I need some help here. I am working on the electronics. I am adding extra fuse block, exterior LED lighting front and back, back up camera, air compressors (gauges), CB Radio and a 8" tablet for gps. I am thinking about the samsung tab a8". For the CB I Am thinking Cobra 29 LX 40. or should I just go handheld? I'd also love to see some pics of other consoles with all of the electronics mounted to get some ideas on the set up. I have some ideas but haven't settled on anything yet but will do this week. Thanks for any help.

so here are a few update photos. working on the rear bumper and under bed storage....I am going with a double din and no tablet. I think I am going with the Pioeneer 4200nex.

Fantastic work! Wow!

Are you doing all the welding and fabrication yourself?

 

[locrwln]

I agree with him. ^^

Great work.

Chris Rose of Anvil Rod and Customs is my fabricator and he is doing all of the welding and fabrication. He is located in Pine, CO and is doing great work for me. He has mentioned he'd be interested in more projects like this.

Thank you for that info. I will add him to my maps info plot database. Always good to know where to get to a good fabricator when you are wheeling away from home and are really in need of one.

Here is the latest update. Passenger side storage and the rear drawer are nearly complete.....I love the angles and how its shaping up!

Amazing rig!
If you are looking for a custom bumper, might I suggest a builder? He has a shop in Iowa and Chattanooga.
Here is what I am having him build for my 2500 Beastieburban. And the price was spot-on! PM me if you would like info.

Thats one tasty looking flat deck Mr Hobbstr. That is also a wicked bumper TNSG. Cheers, Chilli...

That's a super cool bumper. Chris is going to build me a front bumper. I only found one I really liked and was concerned that I would have to modify it after paying $1600 for the bumper. What does that bumper run? Steel or aluminum? I am going with aluminum.

 

[TNSG]

PM me. Steel. Well less than 1600, including install... of course I am close enough to drive down to his shop.

latest photos, drawer is done, driver side cabinets are nearly done. Next steps are to finish up the cabinets and then take the bed off and spray it with bed liner, put in the aux fuel, air system, lighting and other misc. stuff. then done and the real fun begins.

 

[hobbsrt]

ok, the bed has been painted with bed liner, the air system is nearly complete, the aux fuel tank is all plumbed....I am going with an ironbull front bumper instead of custom. I got a Boss Double Din to be installed soon.....here are the pics.
