Hmmm. I tried to find a way around it since I have a 6.7 in my van, and could not find a path that didn't involve the Dodge chassis computer. Although mine has a 2013 block, so perhaps that is the difference (even though it's an '08 ECU, so that's what it shows up as on a scanner). Although I...

I saw you mention that it doesn't require DEF. But every 6.7 left the factory in a truck that required DEF. For those that live in emissions testing areas or areas with inspections, this is an important distinction. I won't go any further, but just an FYI for those considering it.

Btw, what did you do with the chrome grill you took off? I'm in CO so it'd involve shipping, but I'd be interested if you're not keeping it.

The CL ad notes that a sale is pending. Can't tell if a 6 speed manual trans in a vehicle this size would be fun or laborious. Probably both, just depends on the situation.

How much wiggle is there in that cover for the stove top? Meaning, how much do you think it will rattle on a dirt road?

I was very, very close to getting one of those and converting it. Best of luck, curious to see how the shell and interior holds up if you do take it off road. Comically, my diesel 4x4 high top E-350, empty, weighs more than that thing does.

If you're on the front range, aren't there van builders by the dozen? Although probably more sprinter/transit/promaster focused. Timberline and CCV would be where I started though.

So, basically a pop up festival? I had always thought these things were at least somewhat technical in nature. Off road driving clinics, recovery clinics, trail side repair clinics, or even things like DIY solar or hot water clinics.

Having driven a 3.7 at altitude...if you plan on passing through the Rockies, get the Ecoboost. Never heard much on the powerstroke options in these. Wasn't it an inline 5? With diesel prices these days, might find a sweet deal on one.

So, what's with the track bar reinforcement? Just trying to avoid any chance of flex in that area?

Or, just swap one in. https://performanceparts.ford.com/part/M-6007-73 Torque is only listed at 475 though? The 6 speed trans would be nice, but the power is not exactly a giant leap over the V10, especially since preliminary MPG #s are comparable. You can do a tune and maybe headers on the...

Let me get a weight on it and I'll get back to you. That and find a box since it's wide and long, but not very thick.

Anyone want the UJoint template for shortening the gas tank? I have it in my garage and just want it gone but can't bring myself to throw it away.

24" fiberine aero top, about 8" lift, 35s, and right about 9.5' tall.

Diesels will make their torque low in the rpm band. The triton engines all seem to like to rev. If you live in a flat area, not a big deal. Even empty my E350 V10 would be well past 3k rpms climbing grades at highway speeds. It was pretty good at it, it just sucked down the gas doing so, and...

What is the 'extreme insulation' upgrade?

Oh damn, Rollinsville? Never would have guessed. I guess as Ned explodes it was natural that Rollinsville was next.

It's past your budget but: https://www.winnebago.com/models/product/motorhomes/class-c/ekko That thing is only a couple feet longer than an extended van. Shorter than some full size trucks. Weighs about what most built out camper vans weigh. Adding a camper body to the back of a E350 has been...

Well not to go down that rabbit hole, but that's the larger question that was hidden in my comment - the leverage ratio changing throughout the travel will definitely make it feel different with the same spring, even though the spring rate/spring force hasn't changed. The whole 3 dimensional...

That's with the factory 2wd radius arms right? I wonder how different the leverage ratio is vs a 4x4 radius arm setup. As my van sits, without a bumper or winch, I'm at 4440 on the front axle.
