2013 F450 Lance Camper Utility Bed Build

[racer3822]

Got some photos of the Honda 3000eu generator install into the rear of the camper. Accessible from the front if you need to manually start it. Can slide it out to fill with gas or change the oil. If I'm in the desert and stationary and it was very hot I would consider sliding it out to run, but haven't had a heat issue yet with it in considering the air flow and how well vented it is.

It's completely open to the atmosphere and not in a cabinet, so no worries of CO2 in camper...even so we still have the monitor!

You have a nice set up.I like how this guy routed the exhaust and the fan,~ the eight min. mark.

Added an accessory to the tire rack. Can fit 3 bikes across.

Next up is to fab to a storage rack attachment for when the bikes aren't on it.

Got some major updates done the last 2 months! New Gel Coat, Replaced windows with dual pane & new teak matt floor.

11 year old camper was starting to show its age. It's stored outside in California, so the sun really does have its way with it. Decided to remove all the old decals, sand it down and fill all the old mounting holes used on it. Sprayed new gel that was closely color matched to the truck. Did the metal trim parts in rustoleum black.

When I was at it replaced the windows that had the bottom open with new double pane windows as the seals on the old windows weren't working anymore and letting in cold air.












We do alot of camping in either snow or rain and after our last trip to Vancouver Island in October, it was a challenge to get the floor to dry out. With all the moisture the floor isn't as firm as it used to be and decided to make teak wood floor matt to sit over the old. Took it out in the snow this weekend and it worked wonderfully. Planning on adding hydronic heating panels below the teak floor next.
