Dismantled Fiberglass Camper Shell Restoration / Repair
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 2 เม.ย. 2024
- This truck bed cap is literally falling apart, but because I rely on it to cover my "garage" as a full time RVer, I have no choice but to restore it and repair all the damage.

Thank you for supporting the channel ♥ If I've done my job I've inspired someone to chase their dreams!
I really enjoyed watching you work with your dad and even your mom stepping in. My dad helped us with so many projects included replacing a rotted roof on our pop-up camper. He's gone now, but i treasure the time spent together. Thanks for the great video.
Huge thanks to my Dad for always being willing to help with projects like this. Without him I wouldn't be able to tackle more involved projects like this. I'm glad you were able to make those happy memories with your Dad too 🙂
Good to have you back David.
Im glad your still putting out content considering everything going on brotha
What's going on??
Videos becoming slower and slower released
Great to see ya David.
Thanks! So many time-intensive projects on the truck and trailer are finished and we're back traveling, expect regular uploads from here on out :)
Good seeing you
David.
David good to see you back
hey David, they sell a a rubber gasket that goes in between the bed of the truck and your cap, you spray the gasket with color match. This allows cushion and movement of the shell with the body. It’s the friction between bed and shell that separating everything, the rubber gasket for Caps stops all that. Anyway good video, keep ‘em coming! 👍🏻🇺🇸
Thanks for the tip! I'll look into rubber gaskets, maybe that'll help things from separating again.
You make great DIY segments David keep up the great videos!
Thanks Mark!
Thanks for the awesome video, my friend!! You're a good man!😊
David, as always really enjoy your videos. We have a very similar camper shell and this will be very helpful when it comes time for us to make some repairs. Enjoyed watching you and your dad work on the project together. Safe Travels- Kyle and Michelle
Hey guys! Let me know if you've got any questions if your camper shell fails in the way mine did. When I bought it used it was already in not so great condition, but I got it super cheap and didn't really think it'd fall apart the way it did haha. Remind me down the road and I'll let you know how the 5200 adhesive is holding up.
Good to see you David!
Hey long time no see glad your back again
Thank you for the video!
Looking good!
Great video
The 5200 is indeed very strong stuff and I imagine it will work great for you. I just hope you don't ever need to remove it 🙂 Been there.
Haha yeah thats exactly what I read, for use in permanent applications that should never come apart. I'd be quite happy if the fiberglass shell never separates from the aluminum frame ever again. There's no reason for them to ever need to be separated. Let's hope it works!
Good informational video. It's good you have the knowledge, tools and garage to do the work. Watching the videos, you make it look so easy to do. LOL
Haha thanks, but that's why I have to wait till I'm at my parents' house before tackling big projects like this. Plus, I have to give a ton of credit to my Dad, he has a lot more experience and knowledge than I do. That's why you see him applying the adhesive and spraying the paint on the truck.
Great job man 🍻
Thanks dude, it's sooo much better now. Hopefully it holds this time around 🤞
Make sure you check your frame and cross members for rust. Also the brake lines under the drivers side door and fuel lines. These are known to rust.
Nice job. Definitely cheaper to fix it than replace it. 👍🏼
Yep! That's what I always say.
Don't ever get rid of that truck. The new trucks today would break in a heart beat. I was recently car shopping and the technology is horrible.
Oh yeah, I'm not letting my 2004 go any time soon. The 2004-2007 Duramax's are the most highly sought after since they don't have all the new emissions systems on them. I love this truck and will keep fixin' her up each time she needs it 👍
Yay Victor
David, it's great to see you. I hope you guys are doing great. I wish you continued success! Be safe. - - Chris- Ohio
Hey Chris! How've you been? We're doing well, just surviving the Texas heat waiting for the solar eclipse then we're outta here to somewhere cooler!
@@FateUnbound Fantastic. I'm really glad to know you guys are doing great. Yeah, we are right on the edge of totality tomorrow, so we will be driving an hour north to my in-laws house to get close to 2 minutes of totality. Safe travels to you both and we'll look forward to more awesome content : )
David, don't take so long to post between videos. I'm just asking.
Yeah I took way too long to edit this video together and post it. I don't like taking so long between videos either.
You might find auto motive structurAl panel bond may work better its flexable and strong thats what the automotive industry uses to glue the cab and body panels togeter
Long time
What motor do you have. I have a 2004 Chevrolet Silverado 3500 4x4 Dully with a 8.1 V8 long bed. 240 thousand miles. Pull a 15000 lb Solitude 369RL 5th wheel. Safe Travels from Show Me RV Adventures. Clayton&Denise.
I've got the LLY Duramax, it has 165k miles and going strong!
What happened to your wife? I dont see hee here!
We're not in Indiana anymore, but she's right here with me in Texas where we're camped at for the eclipse!
