GoFastCamper GFC Mods, Tips, and Tricks thread.

The method @Sixthelement mentioned is the way, with the karate chops being essential...sides first, then the back..GFC also shows you this method at delivery.

A pull down strap also helps a lot in the process versus pulling on the tent fabric...

 

Mine is a used V1... so no GFC how to.

 

Hey guys, picked up a V2 for my Tundra. The Tundra forums barely have a community for people with GFC's so thought i'd pop in here. Read almost through the entire thread. Lots of great build outs, modifications, and advice.

I was curious if anyone was using a toolbox system like the Dewalt Toughbox or Milwaukee Packout for their interior buildouts. I use my bed a lot so dedicated drawers etc. won't work. Something I can grab and remove easily would be ideal. I would love to see pictures of other's setups using that or some sort of box i.e. Pelican, Plano, etc. too. Thanks!

 

There’s lots of info on the gfc forum

 

I recently checked out a Jeep that had Rigid toolboxes at a rear door and one side of the tail gate area. It looked pretty effective just being able to access the drawers for storage.

 

This is a nice thread for ideas if you haven't seen it yet: https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads...eping-platform-drawer-storage-systems.424709/

 

Unfortunately those forums are a bit of a mess. People including myself have also had issues making accounts to post. I still can't access mine. Appreciate the suggestion though.

This is great, thanks!

 

@300BLK, the GFC forum does feel clunky (probably because it's managed by GFC and seems to be an afterthought). Here a link to a discussion on bed layout on the GFC forum https://forum.gofastcampers.com/t/bed-layout-ideas/223

 

Picked up an OVS 270LT awning at expo got it mounted and added a Hardkoor Led light strip

 

I just had my GFC Topper installed!

Does anyone have any links to hooks or rails I can add to interior? I don't really want to spend even more on the freedom coast kits (Although they look top notch!). I'd like to add a net to the interior roof top if possible. As well as the general use of hanging things inside. Thanks!

 

I bought these. Seem to be working fine. Then bought some 1/8” aircraft cable from Home Depot.

This is great! Thank you! Please excuse my ignorance, what are the bolt specs?

 

I want to say 1/4-20.

 

The V2 rubber well nuts are 1/4-20, while the newer metal plus nuts are 5/16-18...no idea on the V1

 

Is that the vrnclr Bedding Catch you've got hanging there? Or did you find an alternate like that design? How's it holding up / how's it working out for you? Looking for options like this

 

Yeah it’s the vrnclr bedding catch. So far have only used it twice. But I like it.

 

I'm considering taking a sewing class looking at the cost of some of these interior soft mods

I've got a topper on order, and am assuming this will fit as the dimensions can't be THAT different.

 

There is a guy on the FB Go Fast Camper Owners page that makes some good quality bags.

Here’s my custom ones he did for me.



I also have a VRNCLR bedding catch in black I may part with if you’re interested ? It barely interferes with my battery setup , so I removed it.

 

Hmm I don’t have Facebook unfortunately, he only operates out of there?

I actually would be interested in that catch. I’m just curious how it fits the topper vs the camper.

 

The vrnclr catch fits good on a topper. I’m also interested in the side bags offered on Facebook but I’m in the same position, no Facebook.
