How Is Truck Camper Length Measured?

Truck camper length measurement is a crucial part of selecting the right truck camper for your vehicle. It is important to know how large your camper will be in order to ensure that it fits properly in your truck bed and will not overhang or extend beyond the truck’s frame.

When measuring for a truck camper, there are two measurements you need to consider: overall length and box length. The overall length includes the bumpers, tongue, ladder and any other components that may stick out from the sides of the truck camper. Box length measures only the body of the camper without any accessories.

The most accurate way to measure a truck camper is with a tape measure or ruler. You should start at one end of the bumper and measure until you reach the other end. It is important to note that some campers may have a curved rear bumper, so you should be sure to measure along its curve in order to get an accurate measurement.

In some cases, manufacturers may provide their own measurements for their campers, but it is still important to double-check them with your own measurements as some discrepancies may occur. You should also take into account any accessories that stick out from either side of the truck when measuring for overall length.

Conclusion:
Measuring a truck camper accurately requires measuring both its overall length and box length using a tape measure or ruler. It’s important to take into account any accessories sticking out from either side when measuring for overall length and double-check manufacturer provided measurements with your own.
