I'm all for having an open discussion about the value of these trucks. If anything i said was incorrect or not factual, please tell me. At the end of the day, it's a free market, and the market will decide what a vehicle is worth.

Yup, i did. I have a 98 3.4l 4x4 with almost the exact milage. I also have a lot of the same upgrades, most of which I did myself. I'm all for a clean 90s toyota 4x4, but 24k without the GFC is wild

how does the first gen carry the weight of the camper? thinking of getting one for my 98 3.4l v6 manual

Really sick and unique rig. Gotta think you'd get asking or more for this if you took it to a professional to fix the interior issues

sick

whats the reason for selling? could be mistaken but i recall seeing this rig on expedition portal before, but perhaps before it had the roof conversion?

still for sale?

How did you attatch the camper to the truck bed? Any pics of the interior of the camper?

Coming from a fellow first gen owner, I actually like the look of the alu cab on your truck much better than the GFC; looks like a true adventure machine. What do you mean by the bed of the first gen is 2-3 inches lower? and how does that effect the fitment? From the looks of it, the bed rails...

So you have to climb out of the camper and onto the roof every time you want to go to sleep? Seams annoying, poor design.

Love this idea. How did you seal the rtt to the canopy?

What an adventure! quick question, what kind of suspension were you running in the rear? Did you have air bags or heavyweight leaf springs (or both). That's crazy that the welds broke! Glad they got you guys sorted and hopefully it doesn't happen again! I've had the frame crack on my Tacoma so I...

I sold it. Hinges didn't line up. Self tapping screws werent holding. Saw a post from one of the new owners on reddit and seams like he's got the screws drilled out and hinges fixed.

Not mine, looks sick. https://seattle.craigslist.org/see/cto/d/seattle-2008-ford-450-off-road-camper/7533981963.html

Hi Jill. There is a link to the bulb seal I ordered in the first post.

Ive thought about that but the fibreglass is too thick for a riv nut. It needs a backing to hold onto, and I don't think it would clear the fibreglass, if that makes sense

I already used 3M VHB with self tapping screws and a few of the screws weren't holding and were coming loose. That's why I'm trying to do nut and bolt now. Do you think rivets would be better? Even though the hinges aren't load bearing (from my understanding) they still hold some weight, and...

Yup, will definitely be cutting the ends off before I put the skirt back on. hmm, if I could go back in time that's what I would have done, I guess my only option right now is to prop it open then.

@gwittman did you encounter a similar issue when you replaced your latches? How were you able to get a nut and bolt on the top half of the hinge. I feel like there is no room in there for me to put my hand in and thread the nut onto the bolt. Any help is appreciated.
