still torn on the truck. One of my problems is I keep looking at this build: https://expeditionportal.com/gramp-camp-jon-burtts-7-3l-overland-truck-camper/

I was thinking of just going full OME kit with airbags to start, arb bumper, and 295 tires. My slide in is a FWC Hawk

Forgot to ask, Are you running 35's and airbags? I should just ask what suspension setup are you running?

ha ha , the repairs are real, I remember. This thing is so cherry, I promise you, That's why it's such a hard decision. The truck has been a one-owner CA truck. It's an older guy, who owned it. He added the 50 gal tank. It has 106k on it. He just replaced the tie rods, oil pan, shocks, and few...

Thank you for great write up

I am 100% going slide in camper. The only issue I am having is I found an immaculate 2003 7.3 F250 . I can not make up mind if I should snatch it up or go tundra

maybe the tundra is the way to go, I have been reading about upgrading the fuel tank, alot of people say not to do it. Does anyone know why?

I know with the Tacoma's the lift height is advertised the same across the models as well. When I have ordered ( I always use wheelers, cruiser outfitters, or rocky road). They have helped me dial in the height with the different models.

thank you for the feedback. I have owned diesel's before and know what a PITA they can be. I am currently torn. I do not tow regularly enough to truly justify a diesel. I know purchasing a 7.3 would be overkill. I still might have to do it. I know the Tundra is a smarter decision. I really just...

or some other full size, but thats what I am leaning towards

just to be clear, the camper is not for my 87 its for a full size. Either going to get 2000-2003 7.3 Powerstroke f250 or 06-07 Duramax LBZ with the Alison.

Thanks for all the reviews. It seems the slide in is the way to go.

I was not really sure where to post this, I am posting here in my favorite section haha. All the years camping, I have always either slept inside my pick up bed with a shell or just used a ground tent. I have stayed with friends in RTT's before. I think they are great. The wife and I were...

Hello, Is the GFC still for sale?

Here is the truck

Finally got the carpet in this am. The wife and I took off last week and did a quick camp trip.

I ordered The OME leaf springs, bushings, Torsion bars this am. My rear is about 3 1/2 " lower than my front. Looking forward to the new leaves.

I have been pretty busy the last few days, the truck is getting neglected this week. I tore out the interior, added new speakers, a stereo sound deadening and insulation. I have to install the new carpet, this weekend. I ended up cutting the doors and adding speakers.It sounds good.

I will sleep back there. I might build a platform or just keep it pretty bare-bones, not sure yet. Something will happen eventually.

from what I am gathering the L400 is the way to go. I agree that the L300 wins the style points. I guess LHD is very obtainable, it just might take a few months
