Bump for updates?

I have been working on it, but it is going slow. I didn't realize how much welding was involved....

I'll take some pictures tonight and post them up

Still working on the frame. I have 3 sides done except for some minor gusseting. Starting the frame for the door and I also need to weld on the jack mounts. The frame for the door is going to be interesting.....

Not getting enough work on the camper done because fishing has been too important.

Nice work.

I just picked up a flatbed for a future change over. Not going to go to the extreme you have but going to add outside boxes down the sides for more storage.

Keep posting up progress!

I'm glad to hear this ike. I was worried that you were going to run out of projects! :sombrero:

I am really getting tired of looking at the frame...but I did make some progress today and I beefed up the door frame. The pics don't show much...all the work was on the inside of the camper.

I like being able to access storage from the outside with my flatbed set up. Would hate to have to go in and out of camper for everything in my side storage.

Storage Boxes

I'll probably install 2 underbed tool boxes in front of the rear tires for extra "dirty" storage.

Maybe this will inspire you and give you some ideas: http://www.wanderthewest.com/forum/index.php?/topic/5112/
I know what it's like to stall on a project.
Hope this helps.

Oh I have been inspired. I have been drooling on DirtyDogs camper from the day the first pics were released from the AT factory.

I plan on making huge strides this weekend.....I have 5 days off and nothing to do

Look forward to some updates of your progress.
Can't tell for sure from the pics, but it looks like you put the door on the passenger side? If so, why did you pick passenger side over drivers? Just curious.
Keep up the good work.

Passenger side faces a sidewalk, etc. if you are parked along one. Its the standard access side for vans, etc. that only have a door on one side.
