Hello folks. I should have spent more time lurking but after years without a camper or anything, Im ready to buy something for my 8' 1997 truck bed.. Does anyone make a fiberglass pop-up? I like how leer topper caps clamp to the bed edge, and hoping I can find something like that but with a...

That thing would be nice on my 97 cummins.. To bad he's 2000 miles away..

I found a trailer builder who will build me a narrow track 7x16 overland toy hauler which will be loaded to the gills. I want the wheels completely underneath the trailer with wheel wells and was thinking leaf springs, but what else is available for dual axle trailers? I'd like to have...

How do you like the Silent Ride system? I knew I didn't need independent, but I wanted airbags for a 7x16 tandem axle project..

I noticed the ibex toyhauler and nobo toyhauler were practically the same at 7x21. Both had the curt independent trailer suspension. The Ember uses it as well. Does anyone own a trailer with this suspension? Or any comments if you've compared it to others? Thanks

Man, I wish they offered a twin axle toyhauler version for half the price of the XR22. The quality looks second to none.

Finally, someone who gets it. But I wouldn't say it's not hard to reframe a open wheel 7x16 to wheel wells because you have to cut the main frame members. Doable, yes. It's either that, or drive days for a old Pace...

Thread resurrection, because Ive been looking for a narrow track enclosed trailer to build my overland toyhauler for quite a while. Why cant Elkhart build a narrow track, 6 to 7' wide enclosed trailer for every poor overlander who wants to outfit the trailer himself? btw narrow track means no...

Don't see that narrow box very often.

Nice! But you'd be better off buying a 1st or second gen fummins and building a smaller narrower camper.

It's 21 years old.

I like that trailer and you stole my truck.. Mines a 97 though..

Arguably the worst year with the vp44 because they put the electronics in the hot ass engine compartment.

I like how they maximized space without giant fenders like most..

To bad it's not a 12 valve
