If anything, it can be done to a used van. Last I checked quigley/quadvan were looking at new or near-new vans only.

You say your wife can't drive your truck, but an EB ford or chevy is going to be just as big as most trucks. There are some provan tigers in the 15-20k range (at least near Denver) that while overpriced with the pandemic, are basically turn key. The 4.3 V6 is just a 350 with 2 cyls lopped off...

Say what now? Got a link to that summit battery box? Maybe I'm not searching the right terms but a dual battery carrier like that for $40 would be ordered today if I saw one.

Seriously? I wasn't wildly impressed with their expensive little cubes, but even less so now.

Have you taken a multimeter and measured the actual voltage at both locations? That's probably step 1 here before you start doing any more guessing.

Hm, I like the folding idea. Could you technically use just the driver + middle seat and leave the passenger seat off? Or are those one big assembly?

GrampsWRX is a SMB forum member and has rental vans. Not 100% sure on type or quantity however.

At the moment, moving and getting settled is taking vastly more time/effort than anticipated. I haven't done anything to it just yet other than the visit with Destroked to plug into the trans. I did get a chance to drive it in the snow when we used it to fetch a snowblower - living at 8500' up a...

Yes. Brand new built trans, and I think there were 9 miles on the engine. I have the receipts kicking around in the folder that came with it.

Wait, are we talking about Jordie? I was not aware he was the owner of AlphaVan. That's a small world, and definitely tragic. Side note, Yoann's videos are absolutely hilarious (especially the one about grip position...). And at other times terrifying.

Oh sweet, that'd be easy enough to tap into then. Also good to know on the Cummins. I've driven a few PSD's for work in delivery trucks, and previously owned a 1.9 VW TDI (but with a glow plug relay from 1982), so I'm wholly used to turning the key and waiting 20-60 seconds before starting the...

Yes, I reached out to him prior to buying it. There wasn't anyone else I could think of that had the swap to check in with. With as much $$ it takes to 'bulletproof' a 6.0 I'm actually surprised there aren't more of these swaps kicking around. If you kept the 5r110 and got a good deal on a...

Wanted to start a thread for the beginning of what I hope is a pretty fantastic project, starting from an interesting base. I know the wife and I are both pretty stoked. The backstory is that I started my search for an E-350 about a year ago. Doing my due diligence on the drivetrain options, I...

SOLD!

Those Spyntec hubs looks kinda interesting. Is that mainly for mpg?

I'm aware the e-series is a dinosaur, but if I already have a 4x4 E-series, it's immensely more cost efficient to just continue the build vs buying a $50k awd Transit. Especially since since I really like having 4 low, lockers, and 35s on solid axles. They're not apples to apples. I'll be damned...

Poking around, I don't see anyone that's done a composite body/box on a van platform, specifically and E350. I really like the passthrough of a van plus the efficiency of the van cab packaging vs the long engine bay of a truck. I could always just get a box truck, but a composite box has much...

I saw the same thing - online pricing tool wouldn't let you pick the 3.73 gears and the 3.5TT for the 2019

Some underbody shots. Can take more upon request. Note: drips in the driveway are from a bad Audi habit. This is actually the only vehicle in the fleet that doesn't leak anything. Thanks

After spending several months hunting a unicorn - a low mile, rust free, 05-06 (no RSC), EB V10, I've come across another unicorn that has my attention more so. This example has lived it's entire life just outside of Los Angeles until I brought it to CO in April of this year. It's an XLT so it...
