Fibrobec Spacekap
I wanted to make a thread dedicated to Spacekap info. These are very cool fiberglass truck tops, and I was in the market for something like this when I discovered them on craigslist. I finally bought one to fix up and build into a part time camper, but leading up to that, I struggled to find a good source of information on these, and seller listings were very vague as well. The information I did find was scattered among build threads, brochures, youtube videos, and technical documents. I am making this thread to consolidate critical info for anyone wanting to learn more about Spacekaps, the different models, and the specs. Most of this information comes from Spacekap documents, though some was found through web searches. If you find any incorrect info, please reach out, and please feel free to share your own info, pics, and experience if you own a Spacekap yourself to make this a well rounded resource for those in the future!
About Spacekap
The Spacekap Concept
Models and Specs
Current Models:
Compak
Our SpaceKap Compak model was designed to give you 320° of accessibility to maximize internal space. The ergonomic design of this transferable service body allows you to work completely from the outside. This reduces the need to hunch over thus saving you potential back injury.
The COMPAK is the innovation awaited by the industry which combines aggressive lines and a low roof line for added access to low area places. With its incorporated side utility doors and its LED lights, the COMPAK will meet and exceed the requirements in a variety of trades within today’s market.
Wild
The SpaceKap Wild is available in both 6 and 8 foot lengths and is also offered with or without side access doors. The Wild offers an unrivaled 320° of access to your equipment. The side door opening on our 8 foot version is an amazing 24” high by 84” wide. That combined with 40/60 rear doors, a Space-Slide sliding tray and/or one our Quick Ship Packages, will give you instant access to any part of your cargo
Diablo
The SpaceKap Diablo offers the largest interior volume available in the industry while being exceedingly aerodynamic. With and interior height of 6’3” all your employees will be able to stand up straight in this utility service body. Natural lighting from our skylights located at the front and standard energy-efficient LED lighting, 40/60 rear doors make the Diablo a benchmark in the industry.
The DIABLO is a unit which possesses the most interior volume in the industry and great aerodynamics at the same time. With natural lighting coming from a skylight configuration in the front section and its 40/60 rear doors, the DIABLO is what others will use as a reference in the industry
The deck is reinforced to support up to 250 lb. A higher capacity deck/overhang is optional. Please contact Fibrobec for more information.

The Spacekap Concept
The Spacekap concept was not born yesterday. It was developed by the founder of Fibrobec and its engineers more than 35 years ago. From the beginning, it was innovative and even today, is the pride of our team.
The primary goal of this concept was: To make a universal and transferable tool box (no matter what the make of the pick-up truck), lightweight, resistant to humidity and mold and especially resistant to the rigors of the road and its users.
To do so, only the best available materials were and are used. The goal being to use the very best in terms of components, and to this day our Spacekap remains the reference in the industry. Be assured that it will serve you during many years in your projects and endeavors.
