  • I built a truck cap camper completely out of old pallets from work, on my 1996 Ford Ranger. I needed a winter project and a place to take my break at work since I wasn't commuting in my Isuzu Elf camper during the winter. So started this project that I wasn't even sure I'd finish but finally finished this spring just in time for summer!
    I started this channel to inform and find other Isuzu Elf owners and document my progress and maintenance on the camper. I imported myself and blew my whole life savings on it haha. I really enjoyed making the videos as well as doing the work so I'm adding my Ranger projects here as well.
    Thanks for watching and stay tuned if any of this interests you! Feel free to ask any question you might have. Thanks again for checking out the video!!

    Incredible build. Breaking down pallets is killer

    Dude I just moved back to the PNW and this is basically my plan. Found a mint little 92 with only 97k miles

    Here from Reddit. Awesome that you reclaimed wood for your build. Would love to see more ranger videos! I hope to do a simple build in my 2000 XLT.

    This is awesome! I'm building a similar camper build on my 2002 Ranger 4x4. Taking some inspiration for sure

      Thank you! Ranger is the perfect size for a build if you ask me. I just got mine back on the road I had a bad transfer case and just replaced it. Good to be back in it and nice to have my break room back in the parking lot at work. Haha.

    Looking forward to some Elf content, but enjoyed the pallet project.

      Nice thanks for still checking it out! The elf will be back I just took it on a 4 day trip (no video of it) so I'm motivated to get to finishing the building and shooting video again. 😀

    What kind of carpet did you use on the inside of the cap ?
    Great job on the build !

      www.yourautotrim.com/80wiozcas.html I believe this is what I ended up using. It stretched nice enough to get around things. I did end up cutting it in sections to make it easier
