    Looking to raise a 2004 Chevy Express 3500 Roadtrek Popular 190

    I lifted my 2011 Chevy Express 3500 with a Weldtec 3" lift spindle, 2" coil spacer and Fox shocks (Weldtec supplied and revalved according to weight). I had a progressive leaf pack built for the rear with a 2" block and added a rear stabilizer bar. I had to add the 2" block due to interference...

    My 2011' Airstream Avenue - Chevy Express Van - Locked & Lifted

    i use a Blue Ox tow bar, put the transfer case in neutral and auto transmission in park and leave key off on my 2017' JKU. I also use a Brake Buddy, which I would not go without, especially towing behind the van. I haven't towed my JKU behind the van yet but will probably try it in the near...

    My 2011' Airstream Avenue - Chevy Express Van - Locked & Lifted

    Camping pics A couple weeks ago I went to meet a friend at Trona Pinnacles for some camping and photography. It's a pretty cool location with about 4 miles of washboard road to drive, so I was able to see how this van worked on washboard. I aired the back tires to 45 pounds and front tires to...

    My 2011' Airstream Avenue - Chevy Express Van - Locked & Lifted

    Off road pics I thought I would post up a few pics from my off road trek in the desert last weekend, these were mild off road trails but I was still able to flex the suspension a little and see how it rode on the bumpy stuff. I have posted these on some other sites, sorry for redundancy for...

    My 2011' Airstream Avenue - Chevy Express Van - Locked & Lifted

    I haven't paid real close attention to it, but one tank I hand calculated at 13.2 mpg, I will check closer once I do a few more trips with it. I was getting 14.5 to 15 mpg before the lift and bigger tires.

    My 2011' Airstream Avenue - Chevy Express Van - Locked & Lifted

    I ended up buying the Bully Dog tuner so I could correct my speedo reading and clear my warning light. My speedo was 15% off comparing to my gps and now is right on and it also cleared the warning light.

    My 2011' Airstream Avenue - Chevy Express Van - Locked & Lifted

    I changed my gearing to 4:10 with an ARB air locker using the twin air compressor so I can air up my tires also, I'm running 2000 rpm at 70mph.
