This past weekend I installed the lift. SuspensionMaxx MaxxCam2 Key, Skyjacker BUK2061 blocks, Skyjacker H7003 front shocks, Skyjacker H7017 rear shocks. All went pretty well, with the only real issues were a stuck/stripped lug and the frozen/rusted torsion key. As for the torsion adjustment...

I did confirm, they did build that van and the others that dealer sold. I'm working on getting prices, and will share once I know more. Sent from my Pixel 2 using Tapatalk

Yep. Digging around their Instagram @ajs4x4vans, I think you nailed it...they (Beaverton Auto Wholesale and AJ's) are only 4 miles from one another. You rock. Time to make some phone calls.

I know this is a stretch...but I'm at wits end trying to find these. Anyone know where this dealer (Beaverton Auto Wholesale in Aloha, Oregon) is sourcing their nerf bars, ladders, and racks? They look "somewhat" Alumniness-y, but not quite. they have built/sold several vans with these same...

Were you able to find the details on the wheels? I had the same Warlords on my Sprinter I just sold...and would like to do them on my Express.

Well...I'm back. Back to the Chevy platform and back to Expedition Portal. In 2014 I bought, then built the original NARV (Not A Rape Van) 1.0. A couple of years ago I sold it to move to a new Sprinter 4x4. I built that out, all vanlife style...then sold it. Having a $100k vehicle sitting...

LYlqoY2Fo here (ex-owner/builder of NARV). Loving your build. I sold my express, went to Sprinter route for a couple years (see build here), and I've decided to return the the Chevy platform for my next build (on the hunt now) and beginning to formulate my plan. Question, what is your...

So...my new project has arrived...a new Sprinter Crew 4x4 (no fun name yet), so NARV is officially up for sale. Listed on the EP For Sale forum at http://forum.expeditionportal.com/threads/190696-2008-Chevy-Express-1500-AWD-(AKA-N-A-R-V)-5-3L-121k-13-500

Location: Rockledge, Florida, USA Description: The time has come to part with N.A.R.V, due to my new project; a Sprinter 4x4. The van needs ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. Everything works, no leaks, no rattles, nothing. All services performed. Mobile 1 Synthetic always used. New battery (within 6...

I did use adhesive and staples. I do not recommend anything but 3M Spray Adhesive; anything else is a waste of money. Carpet is just cheap automotive carpet from a parts store.

We never finished the window coverings. We had prototyped and tested some, but the magnets didn't hold on the glass due to the Florida heat. Our original idea was to cut fabric to the shape of the windows and then put neodymium magnets in the hem of the fabric. We would glue matching magnets...

I've actually considered putting another "ridge" in near the top so I can do the same, and use it low or high. If I did, there would be a portion of the platform that would not be supported on the left side, due to the slope on that built in. Also it would hit my 12v outlets...so those would...

My two benchs are completely interchangeable. Sent from my SM-G930P using Tapatalk

Easily possible. That is what we do when we want to sleep three. Two on the bed, one on the front bench. The seat mounts in these vans are not the most user friendly, but they are tough. To get the bench moved forward/back, you need to have a little working space to stand without breaking your...

I did finish the front panel. As I said earlier in the thread, the platform extension was built to be portable so that it could be left in my garage when not needed and/or used in other capacities, other than just a bed. I built it slighly smaller than the width of the other platforms pieces...

Here is a rare find in Florida, and at a great price. 85k miles. Exactly the same as I have. 2008 Chevy 1500 express van! 4x4 v8 AWD - $10200 https://orlando.craigslist.org/ctd/5868897221.html

Wow. 39k on a 2007? Did you find it in a time capsule? Congrats. Sent from my SM-G930P using Tapatalk

I carry a cheap step 3 step stepstool all the time. Use it to load kayaks, snowboards into cargo box, wash/waxing, workbench, engine work, camp kitchen storage, etc. http://amzn.to/23lVs6E A couple dollars cheaper at wallyworld. Sent from my SM-G860P using Tapatalk

I think I just passed you on US1 between Melb and Cocoa. Looks good. Edit: and again a few hundred yards from my house near Gus Hipp. Didn't realize you were local.

Wow. I thought I got a deal at $10k at 70k miles. Congrats. Excuse me while I go sulk. Sent from my SM-G860P using Tapatalk
