Looking for ideas, guidance, or thought starters for making a larger slightly offroad capable tandem axle enclosed trailer in the 16-18ft range. I know it will never be a rock crawler and don't intend it to be. But I'd like to just get a bit more clearance because where I will be storing the...

Selling my iceco vl60d. Works great just a bit big for my build. I just put brand new baskets in it, replaced the lid seals, the lids, hinges, and door catches. When I bought it the seals were worn out and the only way iceco would sell the latest seals was with full doors. Also have some spare...

I love this rig, but I’m considering going full time in the next 6-9 months so putting feelers out for potential trades more suited for a couple living full time. I’m not in a rush, so willing wait for the right offer. The truck: -2022 ram 1500 TRX level 1 -bed utility group, surround view...

Hi All, I am working on a minimal build on my Ovrlnd camper and I'm racking my brain how to pass things through the solid walls. Shore power is easy with about 1000 off the shelf options, but I'm struggling to find good options for heating. I like the idea of a stand alone diesel heater as I...

I have three lids for an iceco vl60d up for grabs. Basically had the original 2 left and right lids that needed the door gaskets so ordered replacements. Then iceco accidentally sent me two left lids (they are the same and switchable in every way except the side the door tether is on). So I...

I see a lot of people online and youtube raving about the dometic go hydration water faucet and they all say it can be used with any water jug. However, every video and review I see is using the dometic go hydration water jug with it, which is of course not available. Wondering if anyone has...

Took delivery of the camper today and excited to see how this thing develops. Going to be uncharted territory for much of it. I already have some 2" taller rear springs to install that should offset some of the squat I expect once loaded with gear. Plan will be a relatively basic and...

Only used a couple of times while my ovlrnd camper was being built. This is a great alternative to the Napier tents as you don't have to mess with poles and it has a floor so if your truck bed is dusty, your sleeping area isn't. It's 6 foot tall inside when deployed so you can stand up to...

I’m on the verge of buying a softopper but I have yet to find a review that addresses it’s stability at speed. I routinely do 100mph plus in my ram on desert highways between destinations. Anyone have feedback on how softoppers do at higher speeds? Thanks. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I've been lugging around a small cheap harbor freight air compressor on my mountain bike trips for years. Mostly using it to seat the occasional tubeless MTB tire and a blower nozzle for some bike maintenance. But it packs terribly and now I have a truck I'd like to air down. I really like...

I'm awaiting delivery of my truck bed camper later this summer and using a ground tent or a bed tent in the meantime. On my last journey, I found I needed to charge my Goal Zero on days where I stayed stationary or just didn't drive far. Once my camper is built, I will be sticking 1 or 2 100w...

Hey all, My OVRLND camper is being built and will have a sliding bed that will be 67" wide and 80" long. So I need a mattress solution that is 67x40 and get two of them. I know I can go to a variety of online foam suppliers who can sell me 2x 3" thick pieces of foam. But what I am looking for...

Hey all, I currently drive a 2022 Ram 1500 TRX and have a camp ovrlnd camper on order. Lately, I have been considering ditching it and getting a 3/4 ton where I won't have to worry about weight and will get the MPG benefit of a diesel. I recently found a 2018 PXL that already has a camper on...

Throwing this out there to see what options I have. Located in So Cal (Orange County- Mission Viejo) I took delivery of this 2022 Ram 1500 TRX on 12/30/2021 with hopes of enjoying it for a while before building out an overlanding rig either on this platform or another. I just ordered a camper...

Shopping for a protable power station or "Solar Generator" and find most of the name brands- Jackery, Goal Zero, ecoflow etc... feature what is advertised as a 6MM 12V DC output port. I was set on the Goal Zero because they advertise theirs as being rated at 10A vs the Jackery and other's 3A...

I’ve always done can type builds with dedicated solar cabinets and battery banks. I always got 12v loads and chargers where possible for efficiency. However, my next build is pop up truck camper shell and I’ll be using a tent until that’s ready. So I want a portable power option and have been...

Went to look at an RLD design topper today and the quality seems great. I want to be able to sleep in the back of it so wanted the sliding side windows. But the dealer told me it’d be 8 months to arrive. Then they came running out to the parking lot saying they had one on the way but it’s go the...

Looking for a lightweight camper topper for my Ram 1500 TRX (5'7 bed). Not after one brand in particular so would consider a Go Fast, Four Wheel Camper Project M, Super pacific, AT overland (atlas preferred but summit or others considered), Ovrlnd, Alu cabin, etc... Also may consider non pop...

I have my new TRX on order and should arrive before end of the year and need to figure out how to make it work for camping since I sold my 4x4 ambulance conversion. Problem is TRXs have a pretty low payload. So I started looking into the lightweight pop up topper options and even the RSI...

Looking for light weight pop up or even non pop up options for my Ram 1500 TRX I have on order. I've seen the options like FWC Project M and AT Atlas, but I have a couple concerns: They are all 6-12mos out and I'm still concerned it may cause the very soft TRX suspension to squat. I don't...
