Gear splitter is on the wishlist. I'm pretty sure it's the lack of power causing the search. I can set the cruise at 75 and it's more in the power band and works great.
The truck weighs 11k currently. It has 4.10's on 34's. The tranny still searches at around 60-65 which is mostly what we do on the big road. I'm trying to decide between deeper gears(4.88) or more power(programmer) to push it down the road. Any advice from those with heavier rigs would be...
After removing all the goodies and the ginormous center console that came in our ambulance, we are looking for a clean setup to mount switches. I'm not against removing the unused radio and placing one there. We've actually been trying to find an ambo console that fits the top of the dash...

We did the UJOR six inch on our sloped gravel driveway. I think you should be fine with good jack stands. A good jack is also a plus. Our old 3 ton floor jack was just barely enough to lift the ambo. The kit is nice and worth the cash. Pay close attention to your rear spring hangers. What...
Sounds good. We are going with a rear bed to free up floor space. The two rear cabinets will be cut in half and the bed platform will go on top. Some day I'll start a thread. Thanks for the tips.
I have a question for the ambo guys that have gutted the interior. What did you do with the doors? Screw them shut and seal them? Weld them closed? We are about to rip out sections of our interior and are looking for ideas. Thanks
