Camping modification 4th Gen

[DesertRatSV]

So, I'm looking at making my 2006, 4Dr, 4x4 for camping. I'm currently out of town, to help take care of my mother, an I've been wanting to convert my Explorer for camping. I flew here to Georgia, from Arizona, so Ruby's back in AZ. Does anyone have the inside dimensions for a 2006, 4 door, 4x4, 4.0L (if those last 2 matter)? I would love to start planning it out with my down time. I was recently rated 100% disabled through the VA, and also unemployable, so I have A LOT of time on my hands, but unfortunately, not a lot of money, as I'm also recently divorced after 21 years. I want to convert Ruby for camping, and hit the road. If anyone has done this type of conversion I would REALLY appreciate any information, especially on how to keep costs down. Thank you, ahead of time, to any information y'all give me. I tell you what, joining this site has given me a plethora of information, and foresight about my Explorer.

Not a 4th gen, but perhaps it will give you some ideas:

Camper conversion on 94 XLT

Hey everybody, I'm obsessed with the idea of building a camper inside the back end of my XLT ... I have plans and ideas aplenty, but was curious if anyone had done something similar on their own rig? Thoughts/opinions/tips? Photos? Thanks, all!!
