Your Premium Camper Van Experience in Australia!

At Truck Campers Australia we were also struggling to find vehicles that could carry Truck Campers. The weight has always been the major problem, not helped by the fact that vehicle manufacturers have never advertised the correct actual payload of their vehicles. Even though the Northern Lite Campers are the lightest of the Truck Campers on the market there are no vehicles ready made in Australia to suit. The option has been to convert a Ford Ranger/Mazda BT50 or Nissan Navara or similar to a six wheeler by adding a lazy axle . While these work well they still do not have a massive payload. The American trucks, for which these campers were designed, also struggle with their legal payload in Australia.
The Austral Pod has fibreglass panelling over an aluminium frame and the floor is insulated sandwich with PVC covering. There are six opening windows ute slide on camper and three roof hatches, plus a fly-screen door. The display truck was fitted with AAV4x4  wide-single 17×9 wheels and Gladiator tyres.

The top-of-the-line SUV Grand has been developed with the best SUV innovations over 12 years, and designed to withstand tough Aussie outback conditions. Famous for their ease of operation, the tough SUV Camper range has been constantly innovated since the first patented design was released in 1993. Our most popular camper, small enough to fit a large range of vehicles yet big enough to travel in comfort. The best built, strongest yet lightweight camper on the market.
This means it’s more focussed on tent trailer-style outdoor living, than the live-in comforts of a scaled-down caravan. But apart from its standard wrap-around bat-wing awning, it doesn’t have any canvas. The Linak LA36 actuators are arguably amongst the most advanced models from the world’s leading manufacturer of actuators. They have heavy-duty aluminium housing for harsh conditions and are protected against dust and water to the extent that they can be washed down with a high-pressure cleaner. They allow the roof to be raised or lowered using a toggle switch.
These self-illuminating GlowSteps glow in the dark for up to 10 hours with just a few minutes of light exposure. No need to depend on battery power to light your entry steps. Most slide-on campers provide standard comforts such as a double bed, shower/toilet, 12/240V, earth leakage & circuit breaker, gas bottle, kitchen with 3-way refrigerator, lounge/dinette, stovetop cooker, and sink. However, one major downside of the slide-on camper is the lack of space in the interior.

While it’s not perfect, the Quick Camper 2.1 is a clever design with its roof set-up while retaining the lightweight advantages of a slide-on camper. It's just the ticket for those who like to bush camp with the minimum of fuss. The only other set-up chore you may want to do is to fit the window curtains, which are located with magnetic strips. The reason they're not fitted with curtain rails is the limited space between the camper walls and the pop-up roof walls. The glass entry door, while having a heavy tint, misses out on a curtain. The Quick Camper will fit on the tray of most one-tonne utes, whether it’s a single-, extended- or crew-cab.
We’re here to get you back on the road sooner with our nationwide network of expert repairers and claims assessors. We’ll cover reasonable costs of up to $1,000 if emergency repairs are required to transport your slide on following an incident you’re covered for. We can provide cover for alternative accommodation expenses of up to $150 a day for 30 days if your slide on isn’t fit to live in after a collision, impact, fire or theft. We’ll cover your slide on for extreme weather conditions like hail, storm, cyclones and flood#. Same capacity and lift height as existing 4800 model but is compatible with new vertical orientation motors. You can either contact your local Trayon dealer and go to their showroom, or come see us at one of the many caravan, camping and boating shows hosted all over the nation and the world.

The Atwood electric, telescopic jack legs operate via remote control and can be individually set for height . Once in position on the ground they can be pegged, or special ‘camel pad’ plastic feet can be placed under the base for spreading the load on soft ground. Once the vehicle is clear you can use the remote to lower the jacks and bring the camper down to ground level. Access is easy and via a step onto the bumper (an extended Ultra Deck option on the 1052 model provides a hard-fl oor outdoor area). Of course, you can fully utilise the camper without removing it from the vehicle, and grab handles are fitted to the rear wall to aid the climb using the fold-down step.

Honestly talk about the perfect solution to going anywhere easily with a 4x4 - no fears of being stuck, turning, backing, parking and self-contained. It's got everything I could want - ideal for one or two people. For me I would never want to swap it for a bigger camper because it has everything I want and is SO easy.

This  truck has far outperformed my expectations and I do think they have got it  right this time. With regard to Earthcruiser we are also over the moon with its performance. It’s amazing how many developments have come since our last one. Rear air con works great on these hot tropical nights PPS thanks for talking me into putting BBQ in locker.
