Frontier/Gladiator/Ranger/F150/Tundra/Ram/Sierra/Silverado: 31"

06. I don't see my truck listed, when will you build for my truck?

While we'd love to build for every make, year, and model, we don't offer custom one-off builds. We do not have plans for the Honda Ridgeline, Ford Maverick, or 8 foot beds in the near future.

07. How much bedding can I fit?

Badlander: 3.5"
Mesa: 5"
Rincon: 5.5"

08. Can you lock the tailgate hatch from the inside?

We do not provide a means to lock yourself inside (keyed from the outside), however, you can DIY your own with a carabiner to the cam latch.

09. How do you attach the camper to my truck?

For Tacoma and 3rd gen Tundras, we use a total of 8 C clamps along the bed rails, and one L bracket against the cab. All other trucks are bolted through with grade 8 hardware and stainless brackets.

10. How much weight can the roof support?

It depends. Environmental factors such as temperature, where the load is distributed, and the rated force of your struts will all play a role in how much dynamic weight the roof can support when open. Static load ratings for the Badlander/Rincon campers are 150 lbs, and 100 lbs for Mesa.

11. How is the camper sealed to the truck bed?

We use a combination of high quality bulb gasket, butyl putty, and weather proof tape. We do recommend you seal underneath the plastic bed caps before your installation for best results.

12. How do I prevent condensation?

Condensation will occur without ventilation/heating/insulation. The best line of defense against condensation is ventilation. In winter months, a diesel exchange or propane exchange (not buddy heater) will greatly help to eliminate condensation.

13. Can I heat the camper?

Link the window flange and Propex heaters for heating the camper.

14. Do I need new suspension for my truck?

Not many of our fully loaded campers will be above 400 lbs, with most campers hovering around 300-350 lbs including accessories. For this reason, we recommend waiting until the camper is installed before you go spending more money on suspension. You may find you don't notice the camper much at all.

15. Can I rock crawl with my camper on?

Seriously, we get asked this question a lot. Yes. Make sure your attachment points are secure, and go buck wild. The campers we build are stout.

16. Can I fit a shower or 4 ft. awning on the side?

Yes, but you will have to let us know ahead of your build, otherwise your brackets will be installed on each end of the camper body by default.
