Professional mechanic here. I recommend the Chevy without hesitation for several reasons: You can get AWD in your budget. Not that hard or expensive to make it 4wd They have proven reliable. I have worked on many fleet vans with 4-500,000 miles on them that were not taken care of. If you...

I like the layout so far. Flexible, functional, open space. Working on something similar in my Savana. Just wondering if you are planning on building anything in on the drivers side or just strapping the fridge down? edit. Just went back and saw your sketch for cabinets. Can't wait to see it.

As others have recommended, I believe tool bags are the best solution. They can be shoved in unused space and don't slide around too much. I am a professional mechanic and often end up carrying a lot of tools because I never know what I'll be working on (unless loading for a trip then I take...

I wasn't paying enough attention. There are a lot of replacements for sealed beam 6054 depending on how much money you want to spend. Hella makes a set that takes your choice of H4 bulb. I have them in my Astro with standard wattage low beam / higher wattage high beam. They seem like the...

9011 bulb to replace the 9005 high beam. You will have to trim one of the tabs on the base to fit it.

Maybe I didn't see it but where is the make up air for your wall ventilation system drawing from? I am planning something similar in my Savana and am thinking about inlets at the bottom from underneath the van.

Sienna recliner Not mine. Sienna reclining seat on Ebay in Virginia $100. I get it if I was closer. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Toyota-Sienna-2014-second-row-Grey-LEATHER-BUCKET-SEAT-passenger-side-/122732652660?hash=item1c936fa874:g:aQoAAOSwgYVZz8dN&vxp=mtr

I think all of the 60s in the vans may have been semi float. Its a 33 spline axle. I'll be swapping for a 14 bolt when I get a chance. The cutaways (box trucks) have 70s or 80s and the frame is different. There should be a white tag on the axle tube on the driver's side with the axle...

I'm not sure there is really much difference between the 2500 and 3500 as long as you get the higher gvw 2500 with steering gear box instead of rack and pinion or the 6 lug fake 2500. Maybe rear springs are different? I've got a 3500 and was pretty disappointed that it came with a semi-float...

Right now I'm debating whether to ship or drive home. I'll post something in the van section once I get started on it.

The oil pump would probably bring the pressure up but I think he was suggesting it as a band aid. Probably has worn out cam bearings but I've seen some of these last a while with low oil pressure. By the way, I'm still interested. Not sure if you got my pm.

I'm interested in this van. I've been looking for an extended 3500 for a camper/hauler. Sent a pm with my contact info.
