This build thread is a little overdue. I built this ambulance about 6 years ago. My family has thoroughly enjoyed it. Finally posting the build after I sold it LOL. Can't fit a family of 5 in it anymore.Time to move on to a bigger camper

How it all started when I got it. It was an ex EMT ambulance from a local company

U-joint Offroad brackets and leaf springs going in. If you're going to build an Econoline 4X4, talk to Chris at U-joint Offroad. It's definitely the way to go

38.5" TSL Boggers. We have done a local parade for the last 5 years. We have seats that go into the receiver tubes in the front bumper.

A couple winters ago the 15" wide Boggers didn't fair to well against the snow covered roads. Hopped a curb and took a street sign through the windshield

New Michelin 335/80r20 military tires!
