I bought my Chevy AWD as both a trip and DD for me rig. Once I got the interior half built out my wife (and baby, and dog) claimed it instead. She only puts about 100-200 miles a week on it, but she won't drive anything else, so I ended up selling our Subaru.

Agreed on the Rough country UCAs. Other option is Camburg, but it looks like they are no longer making them for early Silverados. I prefer ball joints over uni-ball for DD's, and I haven't seen a ball joint version for Chevy. There are also ebay UCA's that I wouldn't trust. At least they...

Did anyone else out there have problems getting a good alignment after lifting your van? I'm at about 3+" lift with new keys and Bilsteins. In order to get the Toe and camber correct the caster was sacrificed and is just barely at +0.5 ish. The front end feels a little unstable at speed, but...

I put marathons in mine. Custom made in Montana. Great people to deal with. Well worth the wait and money.

Not affiliated, but a lot of cool vehicles come up for sale in our local classifieds so I like to pass them on. http://classifieds.jacksonhole.media/classified/1997-ford-powerstroke-73-with-flip-pac-topper-listing-9411.aspx#.WMa5bzvyvic

Also check for a stuck caliper, common for 4th gens.

If the whole rear of the van is bouncing, consider dialing in your suspension for the weight you carry. If you are bouncing that much you are likely oversprung and/or under dampened for the weight. If you need the carrying capacity for towing and/or hauling occasionally, you could decrease...

I have 235/85r16 Duratracs on my van. They were on my Tacoma previously. About 25k total on them and still going strong. By far the best AT tire I have owned for all conditions I drive. I drive on ice and snow 4-5 months out of the year, lots of highway miles, wheeling in the desert, mud in...

My 2008 Cargo does not have Stabilitrac. Not that anyone asked, but I don't miss it one bit. I also regularly drive vans with, and compared to the Toyota and Subaru systems it is extremely slow to react to changes in traction. I prefer predictable, controllable wheel slip over Stabilitrac. It...

I like where you are going with that bumper. Who is building it? Any plans for a matching rear?

Not mine, but here is one in Jackson, WY. Express 3500 Quigley 4wd Passenger van. http://classifieds.jacksonhole.media/classified/2008-chevy-express-15-passenger-van-4wd-listing-7520.aspx#.V-fl25MrKpc

I had a hell of a time getting my torsion bars loose too. I tried everything you did, soaking, heat, air chisel, nada. Two things finally did the trick...first I used the oem jack to brace the crossmember the keys are in against something solid in front of it to keep the rubber cross member...

A Vangon and a 4wd G30 camper in Jackson, WY Found these two in the local classifieds. Vanagon, I don't know enough about these to know if this is a good deal or not, here you go. http://classifieds.jacksonhole.media/classified/1987-vanagon-camper-gl-listing-6063.aspx#.V9lTjJMrKXQ This G30...

I ran the 12v+ for the trailer battery and power for the brake controller off of the post that feeds the fuse box under the drivers seat and installed the breakers inside the box. I used the OEM harness routing under the drivers seat to get to the dash (for the controller) then up the A pillar...

Thanks, I've got a potential buyer, but if that doesn't work out I'm planning to head to sprinter source next.

Tons of sprinter front end parts cheap. I've got every part taken out of x4 NCV3 vans (2012-2013) for 4wd conversion. Transverse springs, rotors, calipers, dead axle, a-arms, shocks, mounts, steering racks, rear drive shafts, etc. Vans had 10-15k miles when the parts were removed. I'm trying...

My 2008 cargo has the RPO for 3.42 and a locker.

I've got a RAM mount no drill laptop tray for Express vans, base slides under the passenger seat base and uses the seats bolts. Only thing missing are the little fingers that hold the laptop to the tray. $85 + shipping.

Your welcome.

I have tried to update a few times, but for some reason the entire expo site is not working too well on my macbook at home. I have a slow connection, but for some reason just expo is not working at all, hence the lack of updates. Should get some time after hours at work today to get some...
