I made a set of lifts for my Fleet out of 3/4" square steel tube. I wanted 34" of lift so I could stand up plus a little extra room. It's sort of based on the electrical conduit design that's floating around wtw and expo, but folds more flat so it doesn't eat up matress storage space. It's...

Congrats on the trip! Glad it went well. That's a lot of hard work paying off for you and your wife.

There are deals out there, but as stated, they sell very fast. A nice 80's Grandby popped up last spring for $700 in Denver, sold in minutes (seller updated the listing post sale, thanking everyone for the interest, and said it sold in something like 10 minutes). I paid $580 for my 80's Fleet...

Looking good Shellback! You're making progress and doing a fine job. As my build went on I realized there's no right or wrong way to go about bringing a 35 year old camper back to life. They do take a lot of time though. Thanks for sharing.

Where do the tracks come from?

Keep at it, and thanks for the detailed info on the panels.

I like it! I've repeatedly said that I should have started from scratch. Lots of fixing or altering on my Grandby rebuild/flatbed conversion.

They're calling them SDS now; safety data sheets.

I've been told scotch tape on the foot helps. Like a cheap teflon foot. I wonder if you could cover the base in tape to alleviate the sticking.

Sounds like progress! Keep it up. Hope your Canadian trip went well.

Day I brought the camper home.

Frames united. Cabover installed.

Lower frame ready for original upper frame to be attached.

3/4" T&G ply, thoroughly sealed, attached to frame bottom.

Sealing up overcab bed ply.

Initial floor design; ended up adding tubing so camper can be entered when the floor is suspended and give better mount options.

Beginnings of new lower tube frame..
