    Pics of your VAN! Post up!

    Finished making and installed my bumper. I used the Rough Country Silverado DIY bumper kit and had to do quite a bit of modification to make it work. It came out pretty good and the fit is pretty decent after some changes to their design. It's a little more lippy than I wanted, but I think it is...

    GM fullsize AWD Van Info thread

    Anyone order a replacement 4l60E transmission from a reputable online source? I wouldn't trust any of our local shops here to even rotate my tires, let alone work on something important. So my only choice is to order and have it installed or go to the stealership and pay too much. Any...

    Falken A/T3W vs BFG A/T KO2 for roughly the same price...thoughts and/or experience?

    BFG's all the way. If you do a side by side you will notice the Falkens tread depth is far less. Sidewalls are not as strong as BFG's either. Tires always looked low. Took them off after a week and bought the right tires, BFG's.

    GM fullsize AWD Van Info thread

    Fluid change didn't help much, a little better, but still slipping at shift point. The fluid was black. Doesn't make since at 78,000 miles, but poor maintenance is obviously the problem. Probably going to buy a rebuilt online, and install myself or have a mechanic install, since there isn't...

    The tranny in 04 savana AWD is slipping in 2nd gear. I'm going to do a fluid change and see if that helps. The 4 spd in this thing is horrible in the mountains and is too wide of a range, especially when loaded down. Is there a swap to something with an overdrive that can be swapped in? Sure...

    FOUND Vans For Sale!

    Yeah, bummer for sure. I really didn't want to sell Lucinda, at all, but one had to go. I figured while the wound was still open, I'd go ahead and see what happens. I am still not 100% Blueford is going away. I am going to try to make it work financially, but with my son being born last...

    Lucinda Build

    Today is a sad, sad, sad day. Lucinda is on her way to Arkansas to go to her new home. It was super fun bringing her back from the dead. I always enjoy the build just as much as being able to go out and use it. Although, I do regret not using it as much as I should have, but we had some great...

    FOUND Vans For Sale!

    I was going to try to switch mine to doors w/ pw and pl. I haven't looked yet, because I read the same. Can anyone else chime in on this? I don't mind not having either, but sometimes it would be nice. We do too much mountain driving, so I don't care about cruise, although he steering wheel has...
