Overland Flatbeds for Truck Campers

An Aluma Tray is an aluminum flatbed that replaces your truck's factory bed so you can carry a slide-in or flatbed truck camper. Every model is CNC cut and formed from high strength aluminum, powder coated, and finished with a Rhino Lined deck. They are built by Lite Industries in Red Deer, Alberta.

Aluma Trays fit full size 3/4 ton and 1 ton trucks, plus 1 ton chassis cabs with a 60 inch cab to axle measurement. The 6.75' replaces a short box, the 8' replaces a long box, and the HD-60 and HD-60-HC mount to a 60 inch cab to axle chassis. For an 84 inch cab to axle chassis, see the HD-84. We do not make trays for midsize trucks.

Starting prices are $11,819 USD for the 6.75', $12,879 for the 8', $17,820 for the HD-60 and $19,075 for the HD-60-HC. Every build also needs a tray to chassis mounting kit at $1,166 and a fuel kit priced by your truck, and the 6.75' and 8' need a front bulkhead, which starts at $3,329. All pricing is USD. The HD-84 has no published price yet.

The 6.75' and 8' are rated to 3,000 lbs evenly distributed. The HD-60 and HD-60-HC are rated to 5,000 lbs evenly distributed. Those ratings assume the load is spread across the deck, not concentrated in one spot.

Typical lead time is about 8 weeks. Talk to your dealer or to us directly for current build slots, because lead time moves with order volume.

Yes. Every Aluma Tray carries a one year limited base warranty and a three year limited structural warranty from Lite Industries. You must register the warranty within 30 days of purchase for coverage to activate, and the warranty covers personal use only.

No. Both the one year base warranty and the three year structural warranty apply only to the original retail purchaser and are not assignable. If you buy a used Aluma Tray, the factory warranty does not transfer to you.

Every Aluma Tray model comes with four locking under-deck storage boxes. Each box has a weep hole to release moisture, and the doors seal with non-memory welded rubber to keep dust and water out.

In the US, you buy through an authorized dealer. Dealers install the tray and, if a warranty issue comes up, make the repairs Lite Industries approves, and we do not sell direct inside their territories. If there is no dealer near you, contact us and we can look at arranging a local installer, case by case. In Canada, you buy factory direct from Lite Industries in Red Deer, Alberta, and the tray is installed there, unless you are near Overland Campers Quebec. Every tray bought from Lite Industries or an authorized dealer carries the factory warranty from Lite Industries.

No. Aluma Trays are built for full size 3/4 ton and 1 ton trucks and 1 ton chassis cabs only. We do not offer a tray for the Tacoma, Ranger, Gladiator or Colorado, and there is no tray for the Toyota Tundra either.

Typically, no. Unless your purchase agreement says otherwise, tariffs in effect at the time of your order are built into the price you pay. If that changes, it will be spelled out in your purchase agreement.

An overland flatbed does three jobs a factory bed does not. The deck runs flat over the wheels, so a camper uses the full width of the truck. Four locking under-deck boxes, sealed against dust and water, carry heavy gear low and outboard. And camper tie down points are built into the tray, with anodized aircraft L-Track down both sides for gear. Weight matters too: an aluminum flatbed is much lighter than a steel one, so more of your payload is left for the camper and your gear. On an Aluma Tray the aluminum deck is also fully isolated from the chassis on steel mounts and urethane bushings, and the rear boxes get rock guards and weighted mudflaps, which matters on an off-road flatbed truck.

Not usually. Every Aluma Tray is a production model built the same way each time, with a bulkhead and options you choose from the price list. We have made modifications for customers, such as a different storage box, and we always look at specific requests, especially ones that could become part of the range. Ask us or your dealer before you order.

Because aluminum does not like to cycle. A tray bolted straight to the frame takes point loads, and that cycling leads to metal fatigue and, in the end, failure. So every Aluma Tray goes on with a fully isolated fit kit that mates your truck's frame to the tray, using powder coated steel mounts and urethane bushings.

Every part is media blasted with garnet first, at an even, low pressure commercial blast, which gives the powder a surface profile it bonds to well. We do not use wash methods to prep surfaces. Current trays are finished in matte black. On the 2027 models, the storage boxes get a polyester satin black (carbon black) smooth powder, and the doors and the flatbed itself get a polyester texture black, both at a dry film thickness (DFT) of 3 to 3.5 mils.

The first one was built more than 30 years ago. Since then, Lite Industries has designed flatbeds for several industries, in steel, aluminum or a hybrid of the two depending on the job, and it celebrated its 20th anniversary in 2026. Its work also includes knuckle crane trucks, roll over protection systems (ROPS) for above and below ground mining equipment that were independently reviewed and CSA certified, service bodies, and brush trucks for fire services.
