    Wanted Used Camper

    Looking for a used camper to fit a 8' box possibly a 11' should work.
    Recently bought a 2005 F-350 diesel so size should not be a problem, or is there. (never had a camper before.)
    Lower Mainland or South Vancouver Island.

    Thanks Davie

    Be careful with the older ones as some of the newer truck tailgates are a little narrower.

    Yeah the Chevy's put a brace on the inside of the tailgate and totally screwed up loading the older model campers , Ford I beleive is OK and so are the Dodges, had a Chev truck and bought an older model camper which didn't fit !! much cursing and modifying and we were OK !

    Regards

    The ford superdutys have the tailgate brace to. I had to do some trimming on my 9.5' mid eighties Vanguard to get it to fit.

    What kind of trimming was involved.

    The non shower side of the camper has storage that had to be removed. Also had to raise the camper about 1.5" to allow the overhang to clear the cab.
