slide-in camper

[Anthony Williams]

what size slide-in truck camper can I use on my '04 sport trac 4X4? What should I watch out for? Thanks

I think the owner's manual advises against a slide in camper. It might be that the whole bed is not strong enough .... composite material.





Check it out first. ed.

I'm not aware of any that are that small. If there were, I wouldn't fit anyway. :lol:

I had a slide in that was 7ft long and 40 inches wide at the base. It might have fit in the Trac hanging out the back, but the weight (1100 lbs) would be too far behind the rear wheels. It fit my Ranger Supercab OK.

I had also been looking for a slide in pickup camper for my '01 ST, but came to the conclusion they did not exist for the ST, and apparently for all the very good reasons noted above. Heck, I wouldn't have fit in it anyway, but the idea sure struck me as neat at the time.

Would be cool if there was one that you could remove the bed and bolt the camper on. Kinda like the old campers on a Toyota pickup frame.

Didn't I see pics of someone at the Louisville meet with a slide-in camper in their ST?

My owners manual says not to use one and I can't imagine that they don't mean it.

Would be so small, could only accomadate two midgits.

Mr. Rugby has one. There was a discussion a couple weeks ago about it. As I recall, the company that made his particular camper is no longer around. But it is possible to use one with the Sport Trac.
