Hi there, we are in the middle of building a camper right now for our travels. We are using my old toyota pickup as a base, which I already did a full rebuild on. All of which we will do build threads on as soon as we can get some time to start it. BUT, for now I need some help finding windows and doors.
I've looked all over online but I can't seem to find what we are looking for. We could of course build our own, but I don't think we would be making a better product than ones that we could just buy, so in trying to save time, we were hoping to just buy some pre-made ones.
Since we are building our camper from the ground up, we don't have to get exact dimensions. So I figured we could save money (and time) by buying them in stock dimensions rather than have custom ones built.
As for the windows, we don't need anything too fancy. Just single paned, tinted sliders with screens. (I figured keep it simple. Durability and water tight are the most important) All I can find are companies like Hehr, which seem fine, and thats what 4wheel campers uses, so they should last. But they only make windows to order, so they are at least three weeks out and quite pricey. Is there any place I could find windows similar to these, but already in stock dimensions and ready to go?
And as far as doors go. I can't find anything around the 4 foot high range. Somebody has to sell replacements or something right? Most of the main pop-up camper companies seem to have doors about 48 inches high, which is what we would need, but I can't seem to find them anywhere.
As with most vehicles in this type of forum, we are trying to find the balance between lightweight and durability. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you very much.
