I believe the glass can be bought as "new". The rare thing to find is the factory mount system. So let me see if I can find you a link. If it fits 1992 it'll fit 2014. All gen4 E Series rear doors are the same. Just have to pick left or right side (unlike gen3, square, the glass is different...

Thanks, my cell 724.331.0723

I really like the solid extension when ypu think about the "moment", with cantilever, and potential dynamic loading. Just me, I love overkill.

Thanks for that input. I would love to find some of the old Marsden Mats that were aluminum. I have a TON (literally 2 ton to be exact) of steel ones , just too heavy to cover an entire roof with them AND then there is the rust bleeding issue even IF you powder coat them

I am pondering an idea to insulate my fiberglass hightop not only from the INSIDE (closed cell spray/rock wool) but also whether i should bridge the 3/4" on the topside between the ribs and skin it with diamond plate aluminum. I plan on spending many nights up there. I could leave the 3/4" gap...

I have a stash of BOTH gen3 AND gen4 rear tilt out windows here. Been grabbing them as I see them. I have multiples of each. Some tinted, some not. The gen4 (1992-2014) will include the plastic frame, hold down bracket/clip (goes under door frame) and glass. You will need to buy the neoprene...

That is SO awesome Best van out there for dependability. I have a few here. Best dependability is IDI . I have not sistered a ZF to one YET. Also have numerous "spares" here. This IDI is my daily driver/tool wagon/loaner for my kids on their adventures. My wife and I have a 2003 E350 Quigley...

I have many many sets here near Pittsburgh Pa. I will be listing them soon in parts section. $300 per pair plus shipping (reasonable shipping, not crazy ebay shipping) 724.331.0723

I could NOT get it off the box, so I cut that joint as close to box as possible with a grinder and thin kerf cutoff wheel. The front stainless rivets to cab above the windshield I ground flush , then popped with little wonder bar. I plan on using Locktite Premium caulk/glue ($12-13 tube). It's...

I grabbed one from a local junk yard. $50.

Not yet. And I have had it loaded heavily and no contact with body . The primaries are surprisingly responsive and its as good as could hope for even with a custom spring pack from Alcan $1500+ shipping. Got these basically for free (including mounts) , paid local ambo buddies to do it on...

That is AMAZING I wonder how the axle swap effected mileage. The drive train is the weak link on the sprinter. Impressive. I LOVE that e-Locker, permanant locker is dicey in some situations (off angle snow/ice/slime)

I read this thread, as for "more aftermarket support" would be, how many $1000 dollar window shade sets do you need. ? Or $1000 bug screens do you want??? I want "Anywhere USA" auto shop parts, and every Podunk mechanic has worked on a Chevy or Ford. As for "units on the road" and used parts...

I carry "WHATEVER the heck i want". The Ford frame can take a 30+" piece of 2"x3" thick walled box tube slid into each side. I have custom built several of these hitches for my vans. You have to lose the spare tire carrier and its frame frame mounts. Stiffen the 2x3 with some cross tube. Weld...
