@Gdietz - this one is for you! See above. Oh, and we did our final measurements yesterday: Height: 12' 0" Length". 26' 0" Widgth (mirror to mirror): Approx 8' 6" Weight: 15,400lb When we ONLY had the floors in and had stripped all of of the initial plywood off the walls it weighted in at...

Folks - I think we're "done!" Well, as much as "done" ever really means in builds like this - always something else to tinker with. Turned out well, we think, but the proof will be in the miles to see how sturdy and earthquake-resistant she turns out to be. A few notes: * 2023 Isuzu NRR...

Not too much more since the last post. Cabinet doors are in. We had to get confirmation from ‘Truma engineering US’ that they would sell us a unit, but we got that confirmation. Trying to reach Lippert tonorder the Happijac and waiting to get the Truma unit located, ordered, and scheduled for...

Long time no post... but making some progress with this Isuzu NRR build! Pictures in a shakedown run of the rig at about... 60% complete? Two bikes secured in the garage section to e-track (works great). Awning out and enjoying camping at a stopover point in a state park near Asheville, NC...

Great dialogue. Thanks. I guess I need to look at the diagrams and under the front end to better visualize where I can access the frame. I hear you on any recovery, but especially beach recovery. I worry a lot about the exact scenario you describe - even with people willing to help, a keep...

I appreciate the reply so much. I haven't really been up under the front end at all; we've been working at the back of the frame of the truck during the buildout. I don't (yet) have any great ambitions to take this thing deep offroading... but I was thinking it would be nice to be on the beach...

I have scoured the internet and I can't quite figure out where the recovery points on the front of an NPR might be. In the U.S. there are limited options to have a heavy-duty bumper installed, but before I go that route, I wanted to understand more about where a front-side recovery point might...

This could end up being a newbie mistake for me. I think ‘odor management’ in general wasn’t much on my build radar. This is a Morgan Proscape box that is normally used for lawnmowers & stuff; there are 4 vent boxes, 1 at each corner. When we eventually put the walls in, I had thought to sort...

I’ll let you know! The work has mostly been in the cold so alfar sand with doors open, so we hav’t noticed it yet. It’ll air for likely a year before ever travel in it - the build is slow going. I hope it won’t be bad. We’ll see.

Thanks to this site for auditing my plans on paper and giving me the confidence to dive into a box truck camper build without having any clue what I'm doing. I wish we could get the 4x4 NPS in the U.S., but we went with a 2WD for our build with intent to haul 2 ADV motorcycles to target the...

We're intentionally not leaving space for a shower (casualty of toy hauler build), but enabling external shower. Cassette toilet is the plan to be stowed in lower cabinetry. Once again - many thanks for your time in review!

Thank you so much, sincerely, for spending your time to scan the plan. I appreciate it so much. These insights are GREAT and *exactly* the kind of thought-provoking comments (and eventually hopefully criticism) I'm looking for. What an absolute gift to have a forum like this and a community...

Hi, guys! First time poster, long-timer lurker. I am a 100% Green/Noob/Neophyte when it comes to overlanding and camper builds. I've been a long-time motorcycle adventurer, but getting older and wanting to travel with my wife past some of the long mid-country stretches to get from Tennessee...
