You’ve built an incredible machine already, looking forward to seeing what you do next to finish it off.

Very cool news! Lots of GM vans out there in the world that need some 4x4 help. Can’t wait to start seeing your conversions hit the street and trail.

Third that, check your doghouse seal and how it’s seated. The Duramax is much quieter than either of the fairly recent Ford diesels. Mines an LML based LGH so slightly different, but it’s more quiet than my buddies 5.3 gas v8.

You can add it retroactively but you have to take it to them to do the work. I asked about it before going to route I went. I’ve ad two Quigleys, both Ford and Chevy, and their customer service was always great. They had all the info on my ‘05 Ford I sold a few years ago so I bet they at least...

Been there....currently there sort of. I’m not sure you can add a half in but one thing I’ve done is to unscrew the sliding track from the inside, pull the track away from the body a bit, and essentially shim it from there with rubber or neoprene washers over the screws that are welded to the...

I’m pretty confident you could get 2-3 inches of lift out of it easily and then run bigger tires adding a little more. Something more than that will involve new drop down brackets etc from Weldtec.

Hmmm, they can't even supply the build sheet? They may not have parts for it still, but they could, I think, provide you with the build sheet so you could get part numbers and then decide what you needed to order from other places.

What year is it? I used reindexed torsion keys for the front of mine and rear blocks can be had from Weldtec as has been mentioned or directly from Quigley. Turned out the keys that fit were from the latest model Hummer H2. Quigley will provide GM part numbers if you give them the VIN. I...

Boulder Offroad has a kit that can add a couple inches to 1500 vans. Inexpensive and easily installed or cheap to have installed. Bumpers will be a bit more of a challenge and will likely need something custom.

I could be wrong but I think that is essentially the same 4x4 setup since it was introduced here. Their 4matic system that can just be turned off and made 2wd.

Great idea. Any other covering options? I'm not sure my crew is ready for high grade leather so could you do something in one of the nicer vinyl (ok pleather) materials that some of the German automakers use? Its great for holding up against food and drink spills and is still feels reasonably...

Nice! Those will look great on the Dmax you’re working on. Congratulations!

Good luck at the show, hope you get a lot of attention and business. Really interesting stuff from BD diesel for Duramax vans. Looking forward to seeing more, particularly regarding upgrades for the 6l90 transmission.

You'll get some better clearance obviously from just removing those side skirts and the front trim on the bumper. The top looks like a stock bumper so you may find that there are just some holes that need to be filled or left, may not be a big deal. Depending on how much you want to spend you...

If you have a Chevy then Boulder is a must. They do some cool GM stuff and van stuff in general.

That'd be great, thanks Len. My guess is that the switch on the side is in fact for a lumbar pump.

Very interesting, did you buy them directly from Roadtrek?

Great to see some new GM rigs here in the NW. I have a Quigley but my good buddy has an AWD Express. I think you’ll be thrilled with the winter traction and ride quality. Lot of good lift qualities if that’s the way you want to go. Give a shout if you’re ever coming through Eugene.

I bought mine for around that a couple years ago. Mine was a year old at the time with around 5k miles. Mines a diesel with full passenger interior so I’d say you could get that one for around $5k less, but with the van life in full swing these days who knows. Prices seems to vary wildly. For...

With the larger tires and jank added to the roof of my van I lost about 1 mpg on the hwy. Of course into the wind the drop is more. My van does have the full dpf exhaust cleaning suite so when it goes through a regeneration mpgs drop dramatically. Best I've done since I added all the stuff...
