Replacing The Fabric Parts

Scotty · 08-30-2011, 09:21 PM

Is it possible to buy new fabric parts of a pop up? If you can, is it cost effective to do so? I would think between the cost of the parts and the effort involved, it would just be cheaper to buy a new pop up.

Is this something that you could fix yourself and make sure it's done tight so there are no leaks? I'm assuming you mean the fabric on the outside not the inside of the camper?

Mine looks like Frankenstein's tent from all the home improvements I've made on it. Dental floss is good to use in a pinch as thread.

my pop up truck camper has the canvas screwed on the top and bottom to the frame . think the trailers are the same .
i have seen canvas replacement companies that make replacements custom fit based on manufactures . most canvas i'v seem are made by a few comapnies that have the paterns .

That's certainly not something I would care to tackle. I would rather take it somewhere it can be done professionally or buy a whole new pop up. Sell the old one to someone who likes to restore things. Then use the money you made to make a good down payment on a newer one.
