    Introducing the “NEW” Alu-Cab Canopy Camper

    I second what Rin did, I just flipped the slimline rack and made some small notches in the mount to allow it to flip and big wind faring with the small faring on top. made a noticeable difference.

    Introducing the “NEW” Alu-Cab Canopy Camper

    Yeah not a big deal just wanted to point that out, I have one of the first few campers that came into the states and recently was able to borrow a newer one when I was having some work done on my truck and realized that my hatch was way bigger then the newer one. meaning if I did that I would...

    keep in mind if you remove it that your tent canvas will come down into the canopy area when the top is closed.

    Introducing the “NEW” Alu-Cab Canopy Camper

    Alu-cab says the rear wheel carrier will handel up to 33 inch. Anything much bigger than that will likely interfere with the doors latching mechanism.

    Introducing the “NEW” Alu-Cab Canopy Camper

    I use the OME HD Dakars. it did settle some with the weight of the camper but not a lot, if I had to guess maybe 1/4-1/2 an inch fully loaded after almost 2 years with the canopy camper on. check and make sure you did not accidentally receive the medium-duty. Also, it is my understanding they...

    Introducing the “NEW” Alu-Cab Canopy Camper

    I think the question of silver vs black is a non point unless you are sleeping in the day in direct sun. Aluminum cools off quickly and one of the most thermal conductive materials. After the sun is gone it pretty much retains none of the heat of the day. I live along the gulf coast where it...

    Introducing the “NEW” Alu-Cab Canopy Camper

    Nothing special just some cheap ones from amazon https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07MV7T5GZ/ Alu-cab sells a rain kit for this very reason but this was an easy thing to throw together myself. and I prefer a taut-line hitch knot over one-inch webbing with buckles

    Introducing the “NEW” Alu-Cab Canopy Camper

    for the water pools on the shadow awning I just got some tarp clamps and tied some line with a taut line knot to the stakes. Here is a picture you can kind of see it, sorry had to zoom.

    Introducing the “NEW” Alu-Cab Canopy Camper

    I had some 1-inch webbing from an old backpacking hammock that I replaced with better suspension straps so I used that webbing to connect around the top of the bed platform to connect the 2 sides. I initially thought about doing some rivnuts into the bed structure with eyes for connecting it...

    Introducing the “NEW” Alu-Cab Canopy Camper

    If anyone is interested I put the brog land cruiser attic in my camper this is the long bed camper so if you have the short bed version it would probably fit better. I did have a cheap amazon one and stuff constantly fell out so figured this would work better.

    Introducing the “NEW” Alu-Cab Canopy Camper

    I finally broke down and bought an exped megamat10 which is only 4 inches thick, but it is night and day those things are comfortable. One of the best things is everything fits including my overstuffed pillows which go on the small platform when closed since that small mat is no longer in there...

    Introducing the “NEW” Alu-Cab Canopy Camper

    Sorry I have not responded just now seeing this. No I don’t have a table I’m pretty sure if you did you would need a half rack. This is the front runner rack and I had to modify it to make it fit. Although I believe Frontrunner makes a low profile rack now.

    Introducing the “NEW” Alu-Cab Canopy Camper

    I believe the big mattress is 74 inches long. That is the rough measurement I had for mine in my notes from getting a fitted sheet.
