Thanks Mike, glad to share!

Coming soon! This could be a new thread all by itself.......

Thanks Adam88! That's one blessing about winter....IT'S PROJECT TIME! And I'm pretty sure I have some form of ADD. The cabins are generally the easy part of these kind of builds, once a system is developed, and you always find little things that save time.It's the details that consume time...

And now.........

Absolutely, really looking forward to Expo, first time as an exhibitor. Come by, we will be easy to find!

Thanks Ward, I just wish it was on your chassis!

Thanks! The latches took about 4 months of thought, a few nights where you just wake up in the middle of the night and can't fall back asleep thinking about silly things like that, about 2 hours of CAD, 2 Hours of welding, 2 Hours of install time, all so you can take a camper off in 5 minutes...

Thanks again, overall it's 11'2" to the top of the roof rack, overhead had 41.5" of clearance, and the bottom of the door is 43" off the ground.

It's on rubber but I did make it move a little bit on some BIG railroad tracks and a rough road, the latches provide down force as well the limit side to side to .250", I am thinking about dropping another one on the front pulling forward, to keep the possibility of any rearward shift to a point...

A good day Got the tie downs on the camper and mounted on the deck, they worked really good. The truck settled down with weight and the new springs, but it still squats down 1.5-2" below where I would like it, so I'm going to throw in a set of Timbrens and be done, the Timbrens will also take a...

I think you could stuff a 40 under it especially if you move it back a bit. The spare sits between the rails on my truck but it is only up into the frame about 2 inches. If the exhaust wasn't there you could just sit it against the rails and put a couplr of locators in to keep it from slipping...

Something I researched before selecting the fuel tanks size was the energy difference between diesel and propane, a 20 lb bottle contains 4.7 gallons of propane, 3 gallons of diesel has the same amount of energy as 4.7 gallons of propane, so the actual fuel tank size of 10 litres is 2.64...

Hi Ward, the camper has it's own 2.5 gallon fuel tank and battery bank. For the clearance light connection and charge connection there is another 7 wire plug in the front of the camper and it's mate on the truck. Just like a 5th wheel trailer.

New cabinets are on, they hug the wheel nicer and are quite a bit bigger. Just cutting some rock guards as the old cabinets got a lot of finish ripped off by gravel. The rear cabinets allow a mudflap clear of the exhaust too. I made the new cabinets wider in the front to take advantage of...

Kind of related Just delivered a really nice transformer service van to a great client. Body is our 2" wall and 4" floor system, truck has 29 500 lb. drawers inside, 1 1000 pound generator tray outside, 5000 watt commercial generator, 5000 watt inverter, AGM battery bank, 2 work benches, AC...

I did check out the cell booster you used, pretty slick, mine is a little old school in comparison with no indicators, might just have to upgrade. Nice gunsmithing.

One big slab of seamless vinyl.

I have a booster which helps when I'm close enough to a tower, mostly we are a long ways past cell service so it's a non issue. For emergency there's a sat phone around.

Lonseal Lonzebra. Heavy duty flooring for stuff like this. Gets laid down with a 2 part epoxy, 100% sealed.

I don't know if I'd use it inside a camper per say but I do have a really good application for it on the industrial side, thanks for the idea!
