Vagabond Drifter Camper Buildout and Mods

Thanks!

 

What is the fabric called that you are using on the seats?

 

I used an outdoor type carpet from Lowes that I attached using spray adhesive

 

Finally added a light! Goal was no wiring, aim-able, and cheap. Oh and its magnetic, so you can remove it and use it as a light wand.

Got more details? That looks awesome!

 

Ha I was going to ask that.
Amazon link or it’s not real! Lol

 

I put the link in the post. It's not an insanely bright light, but enough. You can also get the remote version too.

 

has anybody ever seen this material? I'm thinking of using a 0.5" sheet for a baseplate in the bed. https://www.boatoutfitters.com/coos...oLUSKjk63xK_6cRoC644QAvD_BwE#211=1113&215=249

 

isn’t this the stuff that dries up and chunks everywhere?

 

For anyone who has wrapped their drifter - how much did you pay? Trying to get a ballpark idea. Thanks!

 

the quote i got was $1300

 

I paid 2400 but that was mostly truck wrap

 

Had a Eezi-Awn axe mount laying around from when I sold my 4runner years ago. The FR doors are so sturdy and heavy duty I decided to mount the axe to them. Used the existing bolts and nuts from the FR doors. I use the axe alot during camping. Glad to have a dedicated spot for it now.

No issues with the struts either opening the doors on their own.

 

Looks good! Time for an axe cover and flap disc

 

Thanks!

Have an axe cover. Just didnt put it on in the picture.

 

Good! I have a buddy who almost lost a finger to an exposed axe end. That'd be lame!

 

Here you go!

 

Base plate and bed sealing done! Really hoping that this inspires the wedge camper gods to speed up my camper due date.

Half inch poly-insulation with half inch Baltic birch on top with sheet vinyl flooring on top. Bolstered the tailgate edge with wood instead of the insulation. Figured it's a high wear area. Going to add one of those metal stair edge protectors to the entrance at some point.

I was nervous about the half inch plywood not feeling solid. But it feels good and saves weight!

 

Ordered my 80/20.

Can anyone share links to any recommended cabinet latches and hinges similar to GooseGear?

Also any links to ABS sheets for the side panels?

Thanks

 

Solid idea with the plywood only in the back where most of the use is. I called around and one specialty lumber yard finally found a piece of 3/4” birch that would work as a single piece in a long bed but it was spendy!
Do you have plans for any sorts of cabinets or fridge tie downs in the back? That is my major concern with not having a solid baseplate in the back. I have plans for a battery/electrical locker as well as fridge tie downs. Not sure about cabinets elsewhere so the partial baseplate may work!
