Hi, I am wanting to build a truck camper this summer. I am having trouble choosing which plans I should purchase, due to not knowing how much weight my truck can handle. I have two mid 80's Chevy trucks, both 1/2 tons with 350s. But the one I will be using has 2 extra leafs on each leaf spring. My brother in law tells me that makes it a "heavy half ton". But I am unable to determine what this means in how much payload it will handle. Does anyone have experience with this and could tell me if it could handle the 1350lbs to 1700lbs of the 9ft to 11ft models? Please help. I didn't find the right solution from the Internet.

Hi, What are the drawbacks to building a pickup truck camper shell, rather than a slide-in, as a cabover ? I've found many plans for slide's and so on, but never anything like a simple shell that would include a cabover compartment. I'm wondering whether there's an inherent problem that prevents this. Please help. I didn't find the right solution from the Internet. References:- https://www.glen-l.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=18630 Marketing video production service Thanks! |
