Here is our 4WD Crewcab Nissan cabstar 3.0L TD (yet to be transformed into a light weight camper):
and here is my friend's cabstar :
Nice platform! Seems similar to a Fuso. Did your friend modified the suspension? That's pretty decent travel! Too bad I don't think we have those here in Canada...
Both cabstar trucks have the same suspension system. The second one has tougher shocks and the frame is a bit stiffer. It is reinforced with additional support pieces, that is the only difference. Mine crosses axles even a bit better. They are similar to the Mitsubishi Fuso but they are a bit smaller and lighter. They are designed to be 4.5 tons but these ones are homologated as light weight vehicle under 3.5 tons. A reasonable light weight camper (3.2m x 2m with a pop-up roof to fit in a container) can be easily mounted on a subframe. With the camper, it can still be under the 3.5 tons limit and this has many advantages here in Europe. The cab over system makes it a very good option as a light weight overland vehicle for families (the camper can be 1m longer than on a def 130 crew cab for instance, which is a reference here for families).

Very cool rig. I haven't seen a Nissan cabover quite like that before. What size tires are you running?

I'd love to see another thread with some additional photos of your trip, Rafael. Thanks!
I'm going to try to write up a report as soon as I get caught up with work.
I'd definitely recommend you take the trip if you get the chance. It was truly awesome.
