Looking for some guidance on replacing the duals with a super single. It would appear that a 37 is going to be the smallest we can go. The up armored HMMWV tires are good for 4k each, but I'm not sold on the 16.5. Getting custom 20's is the other option. Been doing lots of digging on here...

How's it running with that new turbo?

Just as the title says, slow. Working through some minor gremlins and doing a little bit more on the interior. Going to try to get some pics this week.

Just beauty marks. Adds to the character.

Doors for the box are the culprits

All of the weather stripping is twenty years old now and leaks really bad. Mainly at the corners where it has shrunk up. We called our ambo manufacturer and they sent us what they use now. Way too small. Has anyone replaced it, and what did you end up using? Thanks

I guess it just seems slow. I swear I just bought it a couple months ago.

WOW!!! How many small cars were in the bottom of that hole? Must have been a real crater. Glad you found the wheel.

Started to put some bits of cabinetry together. Test fit the sink.

Back to the underside. Time to get the transmission ready for 4x4. Triple disk billet goodness. You may find it hard to believe, but that fine rug is the original carpet.

Gutted the rest of the inside and mocked up some cabinets. Took a break and hit the woods.

Time to clean some more, and start cutting for the rear bed.

Time to trim the fat and lose all the battery draining gremlins. So thankful that the fd had a full set of schematics for the box. Removed all of the emergency lighting and sirens. Pretty much all that's left is the rear lighting. Lots of space remaining to create circuits like we want them.

Wheels are here. We used dodge wheels with center machined out to match the dana 80 hub. Tires are 34x11.50 17 toyo at's. Good thing we lifted the carport too.

Trim it til it fits. They fit just fine.

Time to lose a little weight. That was the front end, the easy end. Due to the box configuration over the rear springs, no photos were taken from sheer frustration. Now we wait on the wheels.

Got tired of the plywood and put down some vinyl floor. Then this happened.

Here's Mavis, a 1999 E-450 Excellance typeIII. The 7.3 only had 114k on the clock. She was a rural hospital ambulance, then served as a rescue truck for the local volunteers. Here she is when we first got her home. Old interior. Had to do a little deep clean and floor removal. We built a...

Good thing we are in Central Texas. Pancake flat around here. ?

The hydra certainly fixed the searching issue. With the 80 horse tow tune it doesn't miss a beat now. It really woke this thing up.
