Kammock awnings installed on three sides of bed vault

[Cybertruck 1974]

Kammock awnings on all three sides, rear awning folds down so I can carry long loads on rack and the roof rack lowers flat to truck, cause it looks cool, spare tire swing arm, air compressor and a rear water cannon for the tailgators.....or to just wash up are a few things I built.

That’s straight up awesome. I have many questions.
What kind of rack are they mounted to? How do you get them parallel to the ground d when you open them? What kind of tire swing is that and does it allow FSD/rear camera use?

I built the rack, tire swing. The rack raises level using gas shocks and I built drop down arms to support rack to truck at rear. The rear camera I relocated on top of the rear receiver inside a 2x2 square stock steel mount and works great. Never had an issue with FSD.

You are obviously a pretty gifted handyperson.

Here's the camera location and rack system I built. Canopies are about 1/3 extended as I don't have enought room to open all the way. I also have telescoping poles to support the canopies when I put my solar panels on top of them and anchor down in high winds.

That is SO cool

You know, a cybertent may still be deployable in the middle of that thing.

Wow Great Job! More information please! Love the rear tire mount and moving the camera. So moving the camera allows you to use FSD without any issues? Did you have to re-calibrate the cameras? How you hooked up the air shock, etc. Brilliant - thank-you

Thanks, No FSD issues at all and no calibration needed. Air shocks I bolted to the central mount location and to the rack itself. Used 100lb shocks.

this looks like a great start to something. I opted not to get a rtt for several reasons, but have always liked the idea of an awning…..

@Urander check this out!

It's perfect for my needs and many others I've built this for. I use the truck for work and need the openess of a rack system and use the awnings for shade and to keep me out of the rain while working. Also yes, when camping I have shade/shelter. The Urander rack system doesn't work for my needs and I prefer the rack I built that raises and lowers when used and not. Flows with the lines of the truck.
