Slide-on campers Travel & Holiday Information Australia

Home comforts include a stainless-steel kitchen sink, inside and outside shower, slide-out internal toilet, fresh-water drinking fountain and upright fridge-freezer. We camp in the truck campers we manufacture, so we can use our own experience to help design the best campers on the market using time tested construction techniques and quality materials. An example is that some utes overload their front axles if a steel winch bar, side rails, winch and second battery are fitted. Others, with short wheelbases, overload their rear axles with only a modest payload in their trays.
Your manual Happijac legs can be adjusted with a low speed drill or you can upgrade at anytime to electric and operate all four legs at once from a wireless remote control. Every Northstar has a 5/8-inch underlayment floor to cover your ute bed and features a reinforced frame, galvanized steel corners and several other unique features that allow our campers to last longer. These days it is essential moon chair camping   to have a fully functional electrical system and it needs to be expertly managed which the RedVision does perfectly. Another great innovation from Redarc and now standard across the entire Northern Lite range in Australia. The Redvision system allows you to control multiple on-board devices, such as lights, inverter, water pumps and other loads such as televisions and fridges on or off.

Slide-ons might not be for everybody, but they are in many ways a more versatile alternative to a caravan or  motorhome. Clickhereto read some Caravancampingsales reviews of recent slide-on models. While the beauty of a slide-on is that it has stabilising legs to remove it from the ute – and to stop the ute wobbling on its tyres at camp – they have to drop down a considerable way to hit the ground.
Whether you’re exploring untamed landscapes or enjoying a weekend getaway, our campers offer unparalleled quality and convenience. There are multiple cupboards under the opposing benches at the rear of the camper, and plenty of bench counter space for food prep. The Quick Camper 2.1 comes with legs, which you can raise or lower manually – however, many will choose to use a portable electric drill to make the winding operation less tedious. Opening the roof is just a matter of pressing the button to activate the 12-volt actuators for both models.
All lockable storage compartments are keyed alike, so there are plenty of spare keys provided with each unit. The main entry door is unusual in that, as well as having a vertical section like most doors, it also has a horizontal protrusion at the top of the door which covers an open section behind the doorway. The effect is similar to having a “man hole” over the top of the doorway, so entering the Innovan does not require bending over to go through the doorway. An upright stance can be maintained by walking up the steps through the “man hole”. This door can be locked from the outside with a key which is different from the storage compartment keys. From inside the van, the door can be locked by simply lifting up the lever type handle.

They are 1880 mm long but for really tall people, the bench space at the end of the bed can be utilised for a pillow location or feet extension spaces. There is now an option to use 12 volt actuators to raise or lower the roof using a toggle switch, or at an extra cost, a hand held remote controller. The big brother to the 8-11EX has the same superb build quality and features and after sales service and support. As such consider carefully using a dual cab with a camper on the back. If you don’t intend to push the limits of your vehicle and stay away from rough terrain, or simply take your time, you’ll possibly be quite safe. The main difference with a slide-on, for at least the far majority of campers, is you need a tray on the back of your ute.
In 2013 we checked out the first Earthcruiser  Iveco prototype, based on a long wheelbase crew-cab chassis. This vehicle served as an evaluation unit, so production models varied in detail from the vehicle in these photographs. Simply the best on the market…we spend a lot of time upgrading other brand campers to Happijac legs in our workshop.

After all, there's no sense sending someone out on the road unprepared. Our after sales service matches our before and during sales service. We offer 24/7 service and fortunately our customers choose which hours of the 24 wisely.
It’s affordable, lightweight and has an options list as long as your arm. The kevlar hammertone paint and etched rear panel add neat finishing touches to the Wedgetail Hawk slide-on camper.The Hawk is Wedgetail Campers’ response to the highly popular tray-back canopy camper market. They’ve managed to produce a unit which ticks all the boxes, and then some. Having now travelled over 40,000 Kilometers in our “Ultimate Rig”, the biggest  bonus is in still being just as excited about our rig today as we were when we first set eyes on a “Northern Lite” Camper.
This Listing is the 5 Step System - 5 x 6" or 15cm deep steps PLUS Torklift All Terrain Landing Gear Scissor steps or folding steps or stairs for all RV's - Truck Campers, Slide On Campers, Motorhomes,... There is a Torklift Glowstep to suit practically every RV on the road. We can advise you on the best system for your Truck Camper, Slide on Camper, Motorhome, 5th Wheeler, Caravan and Campervan. A motorhome 4x4 gives you the power to climb steep roads, navigate rocky and muddy terrain and cross partially flooded flatlands. The short-cab’s motorhome section was beautifully finished and well laid out. A couple would have no trouble living in this vehicle for extended periods and the four-place seating would make it possible to have friends or family aboard.

They are a long standing company with an impeccable reputation with a range of campers that are well suited to the Australian market. There’s an option of double bunks in the room area for the kids while Mum and Dad sleep on the queen bed up top. They’re available in the popular single cab arrangement or, due to popular demand, the more recent dual-cab compact range. We actually have firsthand experience with these things and they offer a lot of comfort and versatility without unduly affecting GVM or fuel economy too much. Born from the need to tow a boat yet still camp in comfort with a minimum of set-up times, the Curlew Campers are another camper that fall into the “uglier than a smashed crab, but damn functional” category.
As one owner said to me " They don't call it a Canter for no reason". The Austral slide-on pod range is made in China, but the electrical and plumbing work is done at Austral’s facility in Queensland, ensuring Australian compliance. We caught up with the 4.2-metre truck-mount model at the 2021 Camping and Caravan Show in Sydney.

Torklift manufacture a range of the best quality products suitable for Truck Campers. The Torklift GlowStep range of RV steps is superb and their FastGun Turnbuckles are so good we include a set with every camper we sell.
The base vehicle which must be prepared with the coupling system does not need to be altered in structure or design because the Monocoque is fitted with its own anti-vibration system. The operation of hooking and unhooking is facilitated by a system of 4 self centering conical pins with an electromechanical locking system. The system of the aluminum legs incorporated into the Monocoque is activated using the wireless remote control . This operation takes just a few minutes and the module can be lowered to the ground or moved on wheels, very useful for storage.
