    Group Flip Pac Camper Rain Fly Buy

    Hi Guys: This was a very rewarding project that seems to have been beneficial to everybody involved: AT, SLO Sails, me, and, most importantly, the ExPo Community. And SLO Sails and Canvas has been able to fulfill other custom orders for awning sides, etc. I have continued to generate ideas...

    Hold a Flippac on with just clamps?

    I clamped mine for a while. Used 4 large c-clamps and some 1 x 3 on the inside rail of the the FP to spread the load across the fiberglass. Worked fine. I would not clamp directly to the fiberglass. Too much pressure on too small an area. When I did drill the shell and bed, I bolted it with 6...

    DIY Flip Pac info

    First a disclaimer...I have not "done" much to my FP, but I have spent hours measuring, cogitating, and doodling alternative solutions to what FRP builds and even what AT specs. I did design and help to manufacture an "aftermarket" fly with windows, drawstring, attachment loops...an overall...

    CL Denver: FP for T100 or Tundra (and Dodge?)

    This is a rare bird. Guys wants good money for it, but they so rarely come up. I think this will fit any F/S truc with a 78" bed; so, that may include newer Dodge Crew Cabs. denver.craigslist.org/rvs/2459221033.html bb

    FS/Trade: FlipPac Camper Shell

    Hi Guys: It fits F150 from '97 - 04. Won't fit a '96. About three inches too short. Not sure about the newer Ram short bed. The bed of my truck was 80.5 inches. I did buy a new truck (96 K1500) and currently plan to install the FP on it. bb

    Flip-Pac FUll Size - Short Bed in Bay Area Craigslist

    I am hoping my good friend was the first to commit to buying this. It is a rare size that fits pre-97 Ford F150 short beds, which is what she has. It does not fit chevy and dodge short beds particularly well. You can see in this picture how it overhangs the 80.25" chevy bed. It'll be a glove...

    Comes with custom fly with two large windows and four vents. Carpet kit for bed of the truck. Fits Dodge and GM short bed. Also fits some years of the Ford F150. 6.5-ish foot bed. Too large for Tundra and too small for Ford short beds. The Good: As you all know, these are hard to find on the...

    Shower enclosures...

    You may be right. I have thought about one of those, but did not want a tent to set/strike. That's the reason I like the FP so much. Easy up/down. How do you like it? The reviews on Cabelas are good. But the enclosure is $90 now. As was the case with the FP Fly, we have to gauge interest; then...

    Group Flip Pac Camper Rain Fly Buy

    Took a while to get this photo up. I was a very rainy night. Some water soaked into the fly material, but not enough to make the tent leak. Also, as you can see, I designed a semicircular window. I like it. It requires that I use a bigger stuff bag to accommodate the taller window, but I have...

    Hi Guys: We had some success with the FP Rain Flies and I started thinking aqbout shower enclosures. Here's what I am working with: Basically it is a restaurant bus pan with a vinyl curtain hung above it (and snapped into it) that zips up the side. I use a Solar Shower bag (and usually heat...

    Hi guys, I am currently camped in my SLO/AT-flied FP in Carmel, CA. Check the weather. It's rainy and windy. Even in the wind and rain thee fly went on pretty easily. I hook it over the connectors where the poles hinge. Unlike other FP owners, I have removed my poles from the roof/lid. When I...
