Safari Pacific MX2 Build

looks great. But are you afraid of the bolts messing with the camper seating?

 

[Rinny650]

Im not entirely sure but I believe the purpose of the bolts is to hold the camper.

Also to the OP, Not trying to offend or anything but is english your first language? The way you type sounds like someone who has english as a second language. I notice odd things and again no offense meant at all. If any was taken I appologize

Sounds normal to me.

He's giving steps on what he's doing, not holding a conversation.

Thanks guys!

No offense, and yes English my first language. But I am learning Spanish at the moment. I keep the steps as simple as possible. Nothing fancy. And to add starting every sentence with I or then can get a bit redundant.

Time to install the FlipPac camper! First things first. pulled my camper out of the shop using a fork lift.

Then a three strips of rubber seal were placed along the bed railing and one along the front.

The ends were left long for extra play room.

Next placed the camper on the bed and then lifting from inside with his back, slid the a few inches from its final location.

The fiberglass and window railing needed some trimming to clear the tailgate, so proceeded to cut off the necessary amount.

Once trimmed, the FlipPac was slid into pace then secured temporarily with camps. Holes were also drilled accordingly along the bed rails.

After bolting the camper down, the upper lid was opened to install the front support pins.

Here, measures and marks where the pins need to be paces.

Next the hood is opened to access the fender's inner edge, where two holes are drilled.

The holes are made to fit rivet nuts that are pressed into place by a special tool.

Rivet nuts installed on both sides.

Then the support pins are screwed into place with low button head bolts.

After installing the hood pins we close the hood and test fit the supports.

Voilà, camper installed.

Next I check out the inside of the camper, which there is tons of room. I'm standing fully upright when taking this photo.

Lots of room in the sleeper too. Plenty of room above my head.
