Your friend must be a rock bouncer or just one of those million dollar rig types that picked up an article once and read that. 8 Jeeps, 7 D35s... no issues. As for the GM 8.8... if you try to bounce your Astro up rocks, the rear end will be the last in a series of catastrophic failures.

Wow Herbie, that thing is looking BUILT these days! Love the new additions, although I may never get to my rear hatch jerry can holders ala Herbie.

Just picked a complete pop top from a '95 Eurovan (Winnebago style) that is just a hair too big for my Astro. So, its going on Craigslist today. Anyone here interested? Decent shape, couple cracks in the outer plastic shell (1 repair), canvas is decent (also 1 repair), screens torn a bit. Not...

Agreed. If there is no contact name and/ or phone number, I will pass every time. Here in LA, the scammers also put strange prices, like $5006 or $12340. :2:

Right on, sounds like fun. On my Jeep, I mounted the pump inside the cab (had a big truck box in the back) to protect it from the world. Then, I ran hoses to quick disconnects in front and one in back. I T'd off the front line to run a real small line through the floorboard and into the gauge...

Outstanding choice Herbie; Viair is the defacto standard for offroad OBAs, IMHO. Which pump did you go with? The tank will let you get away with a lot so you can run a real fast pump with lower duty cycle. Any thoughts on using air pressure to provide water pressure, or do you already have a...

Thanks man, makes life interesting, especially when I see people mouthing the words "what the F, is that a minivan?!"

Mine is a daily driver as well, but I do carpool with my wife some days. My commute is about 70/ day @ 13 MPG. Gets pricey, but sure is a fun comfy ride though.

Here's the amazon link for the 400lb slides I mentioned... FWIW Link: http://a.co/1bF1Nb7

Hehheh cool thanks, can't wait to see the rest.

Looks to be right around 7', maybe 84-ish inches. Inside of back door to back of chairs is 94".

Hey it's nonhog, welcome here too! SHARKFOX- Been a while buddy, itching for some new adventures and stories!

ROAD TRIP! PNW Good Will Tour 2016 The journey began Saturday morning but by the time I actually hit the road, it was more like 3PM. Managed to make my way up to Lake Shasta, CA. Camped out on a blow up bed in the van and even though its insulated, it was COLD AF! It got down to mid 30s, but...

Finalizing the planning stage, thanks to your input of course. It looks like TnB will probably be ready before me so since we are both working on it we can learn from each other. He proactively got a longer PS hose for the tight one, I'm going to see what it looks like stock and replace as...

Great write up as always, thank you!

Outstanding Herbie, thanks for sharing your awesome thanksgiving with us.

Well, before the BatVan leaves our driveway for good, I felt it appropriate to take it on one last adventure. Hit the Mojave Desert to explore, climb some hills and check out the unspoiled views... Old spoils chute at an abandoned quartz/ gold mine (yes, I had to park on that boulder to show...

Hey Everyone, Nobodyhome here with a tough decision. I mentioned a while back that I may keep the van I was building to sell, and sell the BatVan... well, that day has come. With 100K less miles and that G80.... hard to let go of. I will be posting in Craigslist and locally soon. EDIT: Removed...

Did a little fine tuning to the kitchen last weekend. Was having trouble figuring what to do with the space around the rear heater and finally said screw it and glued up some felt behind it. That looks cleaner. Needed some more storage space so I went ahead and built up a simple little...
