Alu-Cab ModCAP Tailgate Edition Camper

Newly unveiled. Coming soon to Canada through Cap-it.

The Alu-Cab ModCAP Tailgate Edition is the newest evolution of Alu-Cab’s modular camper platform, unveiled at Overland Expo West in Flagstaff, Arizona.

Designed to simplify the path into a true aluminum camper system, the Tailgate Edition retains your factory tailgate while delivering secure aluminum storage below and elevated sleeping above.

Think of it as the bridge between a premium truck canopy and a full expedition camper.

Introductory pre-order pricing will be available for a limited launch period.

A Simpler Path Into the Alu-Cab Camper World

Traditional ModCAP Camper systems replace the factory tailgate with a full-height rear walk-through door, creating the most integrated camper experience possible.

The new ModCAP Tailgate Edition takes a different approach.

By retaining your OEM tailgate, Alu-Cab has created a more approachable, modular camper system that simplifies installation, future removal, and overall setup flexibility while still delivering the premium build quality the brand is known for.

• Retains your factory tailgate
• Simplified installation and fitment
• Secure aluminum storage below
• Elevated sleeping system above
• Modular architecture designed to grow with your build
• Available in both 2-sleeper and family 4-sleeper configurations

Installation Options

Unlike the full ModCAP Canopy Camper, the Tailgate Edition is designed around easier installation and future removal if desired.

This opens up more flexible installation options depending on how permanent or integrated you want your setup to become.

Base Installation

Includes:

• Uncrating and assembly of all components
• Basic installation of the ModCAP Tailgate Edition Camper system
• Mounting and alignment of the camper structure

Standard Installation

Includes everything from Base Installation plus:

• Interior lighting wiring
• Interior power integration
• Additional electrical setup and finishing

Optional Bed Sealing

Pickup truck beds are designed to evacuate water, which unfortunately works against you when trying to keep water out.

Optional bed sealing services allow us to seal factory bed openings and improve overall weather resistance significantly.

While we can add tailgate sealing solutions, the OEM tailgate opening itself can never be made completely waterproof.

If absolute weather sealing and a true walk-through camper experience are priorities, we would typically recommend stepping up to the full Alu-Cab ModCAP Canopy Camper with complete tailgate replacement and integrated rear walk-through door.

Why This Product Matters

The ModCAP Tailgate Edition fills the gap between a rooftop tent setup and a full expedition camper.

It gives customers secure aluminum storage, elevated sleeping, modular expandability, and real Alu-Cab engineering without requiring a fully integrated camper conversion from day one.

For many truck owners, this may become the sweet spot between capability, flexibility, and long-term upgrade potential.

Cap-it is currently reviewing final Canadian specifications, fitment details, pricing, and availability.

Introductory pre-order pricing will be available for a limited launch period.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the ModCAP Tailgate Edition?

It is a newly unveiled version of the Alu-Cab ModCAP camper platform that retains your factory tailgate while adding secure aluminum storage and rooftop sleeping capability.

How is it different from the standard ModCAP Camper?

The Tailgate Edition keeps your OEM tailgate. The standard ModCAP Canopy Camper replaces the tailgate with a full-height rear walk-through door for a more integrated camper experience.

Which version is best?

The Tailgate Edition is designed for customers wanting a simpler, more flexible camper setup with easier installation and future removal potential.

The full ModCAP Canopy Camper remains the premium option for customers wanting the most integrated and weather-resistant camper experience possible.

Can I add accessories later?

Yes. The ModCAP system is designed around future expansion with awnings, storage systems, water tanks, molle panels, kitchen systems, lighting, and more.

Is the Tailgate Edition waterproof?

The camper system itself is designed for outdoor use and weather resistance, but because the factory tailgate is retained, it cannot achieve the same full sealing capability as the complete ModCAP Canopy Camper walk-through system.

Is professional installation recommended?

Absolutely. Cap-it can assist with assembly, installation, wiring, and optional truck bed sealing services.
