    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West '15 FWC Fleet shell for sale near LA

    Photos of the Fleet on the F-150. Though it looks tight, there is just under 3" of clearance between the underside of the cab-over and the cab. Also in the method of the base installation, the camper can only move a quarter inch laterally, so stays centered in the bed

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West '15 FWC Fleet shell for sale near LA

    I haven't been updating this listing due to health reasons. In the mean time, I have mounted the camper onto a different truck. It is now on a 2019 Ford F-150 Supercab using the same riser adding 1 bar in the front of the bed. I'll be adding pics later.

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Ford AWD van

    I just received a new Sprinter ordering guide yesterday, and it has some of the same mistakes as the previous ordering guide. I'm afraid to tell the dealer. lol The trailer hitch is Q24 (available on 2500 and 3500/3500XD/4500 170EXT; not with W73/QA2) Also, according to the ordering guide, 4x4...

I ordered a 2500 4x4 in mid November and the only info I've gotten back is info in changing options...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West 2016 Colorado 4x4 CC SB and Fleet sheel w/ forkliftable riser and other mods

    Lastly, FWC didn't have a tiedown setup for the (5') short bed Colorado so I was able to locate points that I could mount forged eye bolts. Only the front left corner was difficult because of the fuel tank and filler hoses routed through that area. I even made a gig and guide to drill that hole...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West 2016 Colorado 4x4 CC SB and Fleet sheel w/ forkliftable riser and other mods

    This is the step setup I made. The large lower platform is at a height that I can go directly into the lowered camper on my hands and knees without having to worry about hitting my head on the door frame header. The upper step is at a point that I can walk up into a raised camper that my head...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West 2016 Colorado 4x4 CC SB and Fleet sheel w/ forkliftable riser and other mods

    The camper was originally installed with the tailgate in place, but has been removed since for more clearance in the rear and avoid damage to the tailgate from road debris. Camper jacks were also removed and "centering shims" added, that also rotate out of the way.

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West 2016 Colorado 4x4 CC SB and Fleet sheel w/ forkliftable riser and other mods

    Last December I decided to downsize from a 2500 Silverado to a new 4x4 Chevy Colorado 5’ short bed, crewcab with the new 2.8l DuraMax diesel. I knew I wanted a FWC or ATC, but not really the short Swift, but rather the longer Fleet and because of the Colorado’s higher bed sides, making another...

    Late to chime in here, but I used the Fastgun derringers on my Kestrel (Hawk) and Silverado last year, and have recently change to a ’16 Colorado short bed and a Fleet. I have used the same basic Fastguns and Derringer setup. I am trying to do a write up on my Colorado/Fleet setup and the...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Chevy Colorado 2016 and a 2011 Eagle

    Exactly, the bounce is the shocks being overwhelm by the increased load. The adjustable Ranchos let you correct for the load and ride. They worked superbly on my F250 back in the early '90s and my '09 Silverado 2500. My trucks routinely run from completely empty to near max payload, and the...
