As I understand it they are totally different chassis. The AWD models are torsion bar front suspension and the rwd models are coil spring front suspension. That being said I have not been underneath of a 1500 RWD (do they exist?) to confirm that those are coil spring. I do know that the...

Thanks for the compliments, I really do love this van and still use it every weekend. Now that we only have one dog I have a single dog crate with space next to it for a mountain bike. My XL frame full suspension or fat bike fit perfectly with the front wheel off. If you were to remove the dog...

Still available. Though slightly reluctantly

Still available A few items I'd consider for partial trade - 2 stroke woods bike - 4x4 ATV -Inexpensive AWD or 4x4 vehicle. Ford Ranger, Subaru, Honda Element ect Bonus points for a manual transmission

It works great. I have a Maxxair mounted vertically in the back window opening of my 2010 Savana. No issues. Previously had a fantastic fan in the same location until the threads on the opener stripped out. Those are garbage. Don't bother. I have one in my new truck camper build it's...

What worked for me State Farm personal insurance policy (have been with them over 20 years) I paid out of pocket to have my van appraised. Appraisal came back something like 4X the NADA value of the stock cargo van. I used https://www.motortechappraisals.com/ I sent the appraisal to my agent...

Anything is possible with enough time and money. However the chassis is completely different, the AWD models are torsion bar vs the 2wd being coil spring front spring.

I think it is more due to the stiffness of the pack than the arch. From memory (it was a long time ago) I remember the stock springs actually having more arch than the 2900# pack but they were so much weaker they sagged considerably more. If I were in your shoes I think I would try to...

Thanks! I no longer own this Airstream, but it may be for sale. A guy named Andy Ikerd purchased it and as I understand he's a Airstream fixxer upper / flipper. https://www.flickr.com/photos/36013288@N02/albums/72177720299214831 If you are interested PM me and I can forward his email address.

Thanks. I agree with your valuation, that is kinda what I had in mind. But it's always nice to bounce it around. Honestly I'm torn. If I sell it for $15k I don't know what I would buy that would be half way as useful. But I also don't need two fully built camper rigs that get sub 15mpg parked...

Well it looks like the time has finally come to part ways with my van. It's not ready to go just yet but I would like to hear what y'all think would be a fair price in today's market? 2010 GMC Savana 1500 AWD 210k miles Fresh rebuilt transmission and around 10k worth of maintenance work done in...
