    Nice. But I'd suggest you make the door a slide instead of a swing as a safety. In case for some reason some creep shuts the tailgate on you. You would be trapped.

      Great observation, and suggestion! That issue was brought up a while back, so I lock the tailgate to my truck with a chain, so it can’t be shut.

    I stuffed around the edges with window unit foam strip. About 2x2 foam strip, on mine I built. Wanted to make it so it pops right in and can be flipped right out when done camping. No bed frame with mine just a solar panel, power distribution with fuse box and a separate AGM battery holder that is charged by solar panel and slips into the hitch receiver. Has exhaust vents in the side with a speed controller so I can tune for most efficiently throughout the night, 12v battery charger for phones, windows on sides with vents, window on door and on wall next to the door.

    I saw where you said you chain the tailgate open to the frame or somewhere, but just for a secondary emergency precaution I’d have 2 batteries 2 sawzaws and a whole pack of blades handy just in case. I was going to bring up the tailgate getting shut as well but man no windows to escape, I’d make my own quickly.

    • @Endlessoutdooradventures
      @Endlessoutdooradventures  6 дней назад

      Yeah, it’s definitely not the most ideal truck camper shell to use for this idea (no windows) but it’s all I had. I always have the ratchet to take off the shell clamps in the back, so it would take me a few seconds to pop them off and push off shell if I absolutely had to.

Question though, how long does it take to convert it all back to just a bed for the truck and not a bed for you? Removing your bed shelves and camper top? Could put something like this in here in an hour or less it would totally be worth it for those camping trips.
