    I guess I'll have to post this in both the truck and camper build. I hooked up the camper today to the truck. I know big deal right? Well the truck has had the Deaver leaves added with the b110's and the SOS Concpts bumper. The camper has had a 2 1/2" lift installed and the Tundra wheels with 265/65/17 tires a substantial increase from the 205/75/15's. I had to do quite a bit of figuring through this process and hoped for the best because sometimes you just can't tell how things will work out until you put them on.

    Well it worked out just swimmingly! The Deavers held perfect they only dropped about 1/2-3/4" with the camper attached. Oodles of clearance you can see in the pics how sleak it is underneith and 20" from the ground to the bottom of the camper frame. The camper also sits pretty darn level. I wanted it just a bit nose high so when I put gear in the truck it may level out.




    The hidden hitch and the lock n Roll worked perfect (thank God I didn't have to get a new one)


    he tricky part to me was figuring out the swing outs. When we are able to get out on a trail, if needed, it would be nice to be able to access recoery gear in the back of the truck. Lord knows I don't want to have to unhook if i don't have to. With the camper and truck strait they open fully and so does the tailgate. So to me that is a win



    Beautiful day and I am just really relieved it all worked out so far

    LOL don't think I haven't thought about it. It just blends in so well in the woods though.

    Thanks James but you know as well as I the proof is in the puddin. I'm sure I'll have some bugs to work out. Right now the drop is right against the bumper. I may look tomorrow at drilling another hole further back. I have mixed emotions about that a it's very stable as it is but also worried it will rub the bedliner off and make it rust.

    Funny thing is I drew u some custom bed side decals last year for casper the friendly ghost edition. James truck "wild Crow" and his coolest camper in the world are all black. We already look like salt and pepper when we go places.
