    DIY Spacekap Camper Conversion

    awesome! more storage the better - i’ve noticed (at least with the windows i have) they’re pretty fogged up so you can’t really see out of them anyway, just adds a bit of light but i plan on making some black out shades for them anyway as that’s the only area that gives us away when we’re trying...

    DIY Spacekap Camper Conversion

    we were originally going to do the same layout as you’re doing but decided to go in another direction as it is really tight up there and even with insulation the kap tends to have a lot of condensation in the cabover. We decided we’re going to do a slide out couch on the right side of the kap...

    DIY Spacekap Camper Conversion

    wow totally forgot to update this thread! It’s been just over two months living on the road full-time and our rig is still rock solid. We have a lot to do on the interior still but we just wanted to get out here (BC) as soon as we could from Ontario! We were incredibly lucky with the weather...

    DIY Spacekap Camper Conversion

    luckily there was already a hole from the previous person that had a standard fan in but i did have to make it slightly bigger with a jigsaw! tips i could give would be to take it slow with fibreglass to make sure it doesn’t crack and mount some wood with glue to the ceiling like i did for the...

    Maxxair Fan is in! Time to work on electrical [emoji106] Goal is to get all electrical done this week so by next week insulation is ready to be put in! We’re planning on using rock wool, anyone else use this in their build? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    2018 F150 DIY Spacekap Truck Camper Build on 33’s

    for sure! being outdoor enthusiasts we’re definitely not the pair to take bear safety lightly. Bears will get into anything if they really want to - but compared to a pop-up car/truck tent this is definitely the safer option haha Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Need help with mounting my Spacekap Diablo Camper Conversion to F150

    i’ve edited my post to reflect a change in decision - looks like the d-ring shackle is a better option and much much stronger Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Need help with mounting my Spacekap Diablo Camper Conversion to F150

    yes i’ve also been looking at those, i just want to make sure they’d be able to handle at most 1,200lbs - most d-ring shackles can be super strong so i might end up going with that option Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Need help with mounting my Spacekap Diablo Camper Conversion to F150

    yeah we know spacekap has their own mounting system but 1) it’s so overpriced and 2) the way i have setup my platform i also added insulation inside which isn’t possible with spacekap’s Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Need help with mounting my Spacekap Diablo Camper Conversion to F150

    Hi everyone, I recently mounted my Spacekap Diablo to my 6.5' bed but the platform I made has the camper sitting a bit too high to have the typical mounting system that comes with Spacekap. I've resorted to using ratchet straps but I'm aware the factory tie-down points in the corners of the bed...
