    Fiberglass camper top insulation ideals

    It's a slightly raised fiberglass unit. Just got a line on one that is a little higher. More headroom is always better!

    Fiberglass camper top insulation ideals

    I have the gear and experience to go well below zero with nothing but what I can carry, I know I can do without insulating the shell, I'm just looking for ideals, input and experience from some that may have done it. I'm hoping to have it insulated and mounted with platform built in time for...

    Fiberglass camper top insulation ideals

    I'm not setting out on an Arctic expedition and I know it won't be cozy as home, but little gains can sometimes make HUGE improvements! Houses existed for a long time without double pane windows and dual seal doorways, a lot still don't have them. You are correct about the box though, without...

    Fiberglass camper top insulation ideals

    I camp usually in cooler-cold weather when I feel like going so it could be from 0*-80*F. As far as in or out, a little of both. Planning a big road trip in Sept of '19 and thought it would be nice if inside the camper was not absolutely roasting by time we stop for the night. I'm smart...

    Rack for RTT

    Your truck is awesome! I really am shooting for a very similar build. Mine is a standard cab so I'll be a little shorter and a little less room in the cab. Could I possibly trouble you to ask for detailed close ups of any important details?

    The Mule's resurrection (99 Explorer Sport)

    As a fellow Exploder owner I have to say I LOVE it! I will however take exception to the comment of no available aftermarket, there are plenty of cheap chinese replacement parts and more stereo info than you could ever need!

    Fiberglass camper top insulation ideals

    No carpet just bare fiberglass. I may see what it will take to bribe my buddy that runs the upholstery shop to put in carpet and insulation and make it look pretty, then again I may just glue as much reflectix as I reasonably can in. It was a free camper so I'm not out a lot if I don't like...

    Rack for RTT

    I'm afraid a custom rack is in my future. I already have enough expenses for this trip. Trying to reasonably minimize adding more.

    Rack for RTT

    I'm hoping to find an off the shelf rack for my Ford Ranger that will work with my Leer camper top that doesn't look like an erector set. Planning on the Smittybilt XL tent. Would love to be able to slide my camper on and off without disturbing the rack for other projects. So far all I have...

    Body swapping, the latest "harebrained" idea, the Jeeprolet

    I've had an ideal like this for years! Cheap YJ body cut behind front seats, Scrambler half top and an aluminum flatbed/Ute tray type bed. Ideally mounted on an F-150 frame Just cause I'm a Ford guy! I once saw a custom made 4dr CJ body stretched to fit a K30 Dually frame that's what kinda got...

    Fiberglass camper top insulation ideals

    Getting ready to take a big trip next year and I was planning on mounting up my Leer camper shell. I got to thinking that a little insulation might not be a bad ideal. First thought was maybe spraying the inside of the shell with Lizard Skin or similar product. Second thought was using spray...

    Is a swing out tire carrier worth it, or more of a PITA than it is worth?

    I'm following this. With plans for 40 inch tires I have nowhere else to put a spare and the thought of riding without one is not cool with me.

    General Grabber I run a set of 33X10.50R15 General Grabber Red Letters on my 99 Ford Ranger 4X4 sitting on stock suspension. I am extremely pleased with these tires!

    GovPlanet 5 ton trucks

    No LMTV! As a retired motor sergeant with over 18yrs in the motor pool I have to say the LMTV and MTV was by far the biggest piece of CRAP the Army ever graced us with. Nothing particular just constant little crap. On second thought I did replace quite a few cab tilting mechanisms (pumps...

    Ford Expedition as an "Expedition" Vehicle?

    I had a '98 Expedition and absolutely loved it! Factory L/S, 285/75/16 Kuhmo AT's, running boards removed, custom mounted hidden winch, and KC's on the bumper. It would go anywhere, blend in anywhere and was very comfy with a full size mattress in the back. Only reason to get rid of it...
