    Now that I have Hadley ready for the FWC, I am thinking about possibly changing platforms for the camper. What do you all think.....

    A little of both! It's a 'pick up' camper, with a tag axle!



    Love to find a set in nice condition!

    Can somebody grab a measurement for me?

    I want to know what the width of the aluminum siding is. I am going to have some brackets custom made, and I do not want it overlapping the siding, and thus crushing the lip of the siding.

    Thanks!

    I like the weight saving cutouts in this build.





    Might just do triangles instead of circles.

    Not a jeep, but that reminds me of a camper I saw in France in 2004, attached to an small car:

    I think you should try a ute bed for a platform...then I can see what it looks like before I bite

    You just trying to see what a ute bed looks like, ute bed on a tacoma, or a ute bed w/ a camper of this nature?

    DirtyDog over at WTW just picked up a custom ATC camper built for the ute flatbed on his F250.

    There are also a couple of pictures on WtW of a Gen2 Tacoma that has a flatbed. It is getting ready for a XP Taco Camper.

    I will see if I can find them, and grab them.
