    2000 Ford 7.3L Motovan build (225's build cont'd)

    A guy I work with says the same thing. I'm stuck on a boat for 3 more weeks, but when I get in, I'm changing that for sure.

    Overheating and oil leaks. I've been avoiding fixing the oil leaks on the van for the whole summer. Winter is coming sooner than later, so time to get to it. I've also realized that the leaks are getting worse. I'm positive that the leaks are coming from the HPOP. Or maybe the turbo pedestal...

    Right? One of the UJOR guys van had it. Pretty cool idea. Before I went to work, I was stuck at my father in laws house for a few days. He owns a few NAPA stores in Louisiana, so I got the rest of my parts at cost. Which was the rotors / calipers / tie rods. And since I was sitting around, I...

    What would you keep 4x4 7.3 Box Truck or C4500 2wd Ambulance?

    I'm curious too on what your plans are. What's the price difference? You could have some serious fun with a decent lift and tires with the 4x4.

    New 13 gallon water tank fits nicely where I want it to.

    2000 Ford 7.3L Motovan build (225's build cont'd)

    OK, I'm done for the next month, as I'm going back to work. Didn't get the axle seals installed, but no biggie. BUT, I did manage to start on the folding part of the wheelchair / motorcycle lift. Still needs angle iron on the sides and expanded metal over it. I already have the expanded metal...

    I skinned it by 1/16". Remember how I was saying I had overheated a couple times? I think I needed a new one anyway.

    best homemade van build forum, expo forum for van builds seems dead

    I can't wait until that fad is over with to be honest. For years no one understood why I had a van instead of a truck. All of a sudden it's cool again. I'd rather to be the odd ball lol.

    2000 Ford 7.3L Motovan build (225's build cont'd)

    Finally drilled all the holes for the spring hangers. And painted them. Unit bearings came in, and I painted them too. I swear UJOR must go through some paint at their shop. Still waiting on axle seals. Then I can finish assembling the axle. I may do the lift in the rear since I won't...
