Dang, even more drool worthy... Trying really hard not to have van envy ?

Repair Geek on YouTube has several videos on the subject of removing rust and painting over it:

What a bummer about Betty Sue, so sorry to hear. Sounds like you are keeping your head up and continuing to make progress on the box truck though. Loving this thread!

Some of the comments are poking fun, but in general it seems productive to me. At least I tried to be respectful while also providing constructive criticism. It's an important detail that makes a big difference. I'd say the bigger issue that is causing forums to go downhill are the new users...

You did not list a price or location

I think they are referring to the fact that you stated 15-18 Ah, which is a unit of energy, but then you state "for a couple minutes." Or maybe it's that you actually typed "A/hour," (Amps per hour?) which I'm not sure what that unit is. If it pulls 15-18 Ah of energy on startup, you could...

Van is the way! I may be biased, however. Don't believe you ever mentioned a budget - start with that and we can start suggesting the various ways to part with your money!

Awesome! Care to share any more details on what work went into the motor?

Listed my Ford OEM Alloy rims/tires for sale here: https://expeditionportal.com/forum/threads/ford-e350-oem-alloy-rims-tires-in-denver-co.232380/

Alright folks, I will have a set of OEM 5-spoke alloy wheels and tires for sale from May 19-May 26 in the Denver, CO area. 8 x 6.5 bolt pattern from a 2013 E350. The tires are Michelin Defender LTX 245/75R16, unknown mileage and approximately 5 yrs old. Unfortunately the van is not currently in...

Very cool, but calling the 5.4 a "million mile motor" might be a stretch

Nice looking van! Whether asking price is "a bit much for some" is irrelevant, as long as it's the right asking price for one! You located in Minneapolis, MN? I think I spotted you around town once.

Sounds like you have the right idea to get started. Regardless of how you implement it, seems like a carbon monoxide detector in your living space is going to be critical. With the in-line blower, setting it up so it generates a negative pressure in your generator box (sucking air out) would...

Are you on the sprinter forums? If not, highly suggest getting in there. Also I believe the new 4x4 sprinters will have an AWD system as opposed to the transfer case 4x4 system of years past. Finally, I've read tons of reports of crazy long lead times, so buckle in and get ready for a long wait!

Sounds like you need a UJOR 4x4 converted E350 cutaway. Can get the latest Ford drivetrain with the reliability/simplicity of a solid front axle and manual transfer case. Whole other league in terms of size though ?

That in-cabin hub locking switch is neat! I assume there are solenoids at the hubs?

Looks like a simple functional build and a clean van! I think I came across this one on my search a couple years ago

OP - care to share some history on this? Did you purchase from the poster in the ad linked the post above? And if so, have you made any changes to the vehicle since then? Or, are you just pricing as you see fit per the market value? No judgement either way, but if you added value to the rig...

There's something to be said for doing things the "hard" way, just to say you did it the hard way. There's also something to be said for doing things the "easy" way, in order to maximize your enjoyment of whatever it is you enjoy doing. We used to do the former (touring all over on our little...

Glad I could be of service! Not coffee related, but also pertains to me previous post of drawing people to your campsite via smell... While you're there grab some of the pre marinated bbq meats for your next campout and prepare to be envy of everyone within a 5 mile radius :ROFLMAO:
