1st Gen Double Cab 4x4 Camper Project

sasquatchio · Sep 9, 2018

Hello!
I have used the forums on this site on and off for a while anytime I was in need of reference material for something truck related. I have a 2002 Tacoma Double Cab 4x4, and have recently decided to work on building it into an adventure vehicle for myself and family. I thought now would be a good time to join. Eventually, I would like to get my hands on a FlipPac, but initially looking to find a high-rise camper shell somewhere on the East Coast. I will post an ISO ad for the shell after the 30 day probationary period, but thought an introductory post might grease the wheels for anybody who has already built or building a rig that meets similar criteria for accessing remote areas of the backcountry for camping and hiking. To be honest, I prefer the minimalist approach- to keep the truck as stock as possible in terms of mechanical upgrades. I'm not a bells and whistles guy, but appreciate functionality. If anybody knows of a topper in the short-term send me a message. I look forward to swapping information moving forward.
