FYI - here is the Reliance Anti-Gravity Pump for the Reliance water jugs. I saw it used in a teardrop camper bit I can't tell you how well it works. Shellback, really like your camper and build.

Lunch, I have Firestone air bags on my tundra and add air to them with a small bicycle pump, it takes that little. With the tundra, I need very little pressure. You definitely want load range E tires. And with my light camper, I don't really need to air them up at all. My 2 cents...

That sounds like a great design. Best of luck on the build.

My wife, daughter and I plus 2 dogs have slept just fine in both my prior FWC Ranger and current ATC Panther. You might check out the ATC Bobcat as an alternative. http://www.wanderthewest.com/forum/topic/3731-atc-bobcat-after-one-year/ And if you decide to go with a Tundra, I love my ATC...

OurayPhotography, Congratulations on the "new" camper! It looks like a great project. As I'm sure you have seen there are many others on this site who have taken on considerable projects. If you are set on making your Tundra into a flatbed, I'm sure you realize that the camper will fit higher...

trikebubble, Thanks for the pics. Yeah, I can see the issue with the Hitchgate. I'm thinking of getting a cargo carrier and figured I would have the same problem...

trikebubble, would you happen to have a picture of the camera view from your side mount? Curious how the view is as that might be a handy location.

Brophy on my old Ranger... Little Giant Safety Step Stepladder Type 1A, with the new truck/camper for more height. Both worked well but with the higher truck bed on the newer Tundra we wanted a taller ladder. In both cases I remove the ladder and place it on the carpet on the floor of...

Great score. That Grandby looks to be in nice condition. 303 aerospace also makes a cleaner that works well.

Thanks Ski! We actually were heading up to Yellowstone the last week of September when the highway was closed north of Pinedale due to the Roosevelt fire. The lady in the visitors center pulled out a map and sent us on an adventure. We headed west through the mountains on the Cottonwood/...

Added an extension on the Rieco-Titan Camper Dolly to get it to truck bed height so that it won't need to be raised and lowered so much when loading...

Near Pinedale, WY

I switched to the Goodyear Wrangler All Terrain Adventure with Kevlar in load range E. I had less than 20k miles on the original Bridgestone SUV tires that came on the Tundra but just got tired of worrying about it. So far so good. I don't add extra air with the camper on as it feels just...

Richard, Nice write-up on the repair. I copied this from my "New Pantheris born" thread in "ATC Camper Discussions"... Wouldn't you know it, the first trip with the Rhino Rack Foxwing/Batwing awning and it breaks... Wow, much more carnage than my experience I posted about in...

I would find a fourth jack... Plus, the driver's side is the heavier side so two would be best on that side. The edge trim is trimmed and the jack brackets screwed to the corners with lag screws that have rubber washers like these.

Very nice, I really liked my old Tundra, I'm sure you will like the V8...

We got in a really quick storm, camping with family and had way more items to hang on to than hands available. I repaired it right away, it really wasn't too bad. The hardest thing was rounding up the parts needed. I'm not sure why the big hinge broke as the nylon pieces should fail first. I...

Storage Cover... I've got to figure out a better way to fasten the front under the overhang...

Wouldn't you know it, the first trip with the Rhino Rack Foxwing/Batwing awning and it breaks. Luckily I was able to get replacement parts from Rhino Rack and it ended up being an easy repair.

carld, sorry to hear about your accident, man that sucks. Best wishes to you.

I did this on my prior set up, a 2000 Tundra with the FWC Ranger. The Ranger was pretty narrow so there was plenty of room to bolt the battery box to the bed. It worked out fine but I eventually moved it back into the camper. It did add considerable storage room under the bench. Have your...

Not the same, a lighter duty Tundra and lighter FWC Ranger. I had this combo for 10 years with no problems and loved the extra length. If you are willing to buy a longbed truck if it doesn't work out then go for it.

What about this Rhino Rack bracket bolted under the side overhang? "The Pioneer Ski Carrier Bracket mounts a Rhino-Rack Ski Carrier (Small) at a 75 degree angle" Or maybe a swing away...

Ha ha, tell us how you feel about that thermostat :D, My thermostat is the same and it was the same on my prior camper, a FWC. Let us know how the new one works. And if it takes a battery, be sure to carry a spare. Love the build, keep up the good work.

What about a ladder? This one is the GoWesty Telescopic Ladder
