So what did you do to your Truck Camper today?

Installed Upper Stableloads on the 2014 Ram DRW today. Called Torklift 3x. HUGE pain, had to jack up frame, cut bolts shorter several times, remove tabs, NO clearance for tools. Took all afternoon and into evening. Ha, 45 minutes and "your wife can do it" my a$$. SHeeeshhh. You'd think Torklift would have better instructions for specific vehicles...

New cabover floor frame is two sticks from being done. Will be paneling by this weekend :).

During the process of taking the bow out of the front edge of the original frame, I literally raised it up over two inches by the time it was sucked up tight to the new frame.

I like that bike rack. I got one from Camping World and it makes the bikes block the door. I do have a hitch rack, but I'd like to use the ladder as well. What model/brand is your rack?

Thule 450 foot pack hooks to the ladder, cut a 50' cross bar in half and used a thule Bike tray with one handed operation that clamps into the fork.

I don't have time to install a front receiver and bike rack on the truck before next weeks trip to Wyoming so I converted one of my car top racks to work on the rear ladder of the Lance. It's fully lockable and does not interfere with the door or the awning and I can move it in minutes if I need to pull out the Honda 2000

Nice job with the camera!

Installed a backup camera on the AF990 that plugs into the OEM backup camera plug on the truck.

Got the front wall of the tank step built and temporarily in place, need to build the second wall that sets about four inches ahead of it to make a storage compartment where I'll be keeping all my fresh water hoses and what nots as I won't have any dinette storage compartments (that space is becoming the new battery boxes).

Or replace your pane of glass with a FRP sheet to make your door more secure.

Had the entrance door lock it self at Salt Point State Park on Sunday night.

Broke out the door glass, and now I'm in the market for replacement glass, and a replacement door lock (a good one, not the cheap junk that Host used..).

I also replaced the factory alternator with a 200AMP big frame G3 on the Superduty, and boy does it work great! I want to add bigger wiring between the alternator and the battery.

call your local glass shop about a piece of tempered glass.
