Agreed, the more I research the more I realize how wrong this stock gearing is

Got some sound deadening and insulation done this week. Used it to haul the dirt bike to some trails today. Snow was pretty deep. Got some riding in and then drive through a big puddle for fun.

Transported a dirtbike to some trails in the van today. ?

Ha! Until that last sentence I was wondering what the hell was going on. I was thinking “there’s no way there’s no snow and a big blue sky over there right now”.

Thanks

Oops, yeah new tires are 285/70R17

I’m running 285’s now after the lift

Here’s my rear axle and door sticker pics. I’ll have to look at the stock tires to check what size they were. I never really looked at them because I knew I was changing them anyway. Damn, the door tag and rear axle are showing it to be a 3.55

Thanks everyone! Here’s my rear axle and door sticker pics. I’ll have to look at the stock tires to check what size they were. I never really looked at them because I knew I was changing them anyway.

Ok, so I got the terminology incorrect as I am new. Hence the questions. Gearing? Gear change or not? The motor is running fine and I’ve decided these are the tires I’m using since they’re brand new and rule. Also, hence the “post Grocery Getter” thread title. I see a ton of people on...

I drove the E350 with a 5.4L on a 400 miles round trip last weekend. I am planning on installing trutrac in the rear axle and I'm wondering if I should change the gearing. There was some mild hills on I-5 where the transmission dropped down gear to maintain 70mph. A lot of the places I plan to...

Snowing in Seattle. Had to find a vacant lot.

Thanks, I’m really happy with it.

I’d like to know more about upgrading the door seals as well.

Started the insulation and sound deadening. I put some sound deadening on the inside of the outer body panels, filled the cavities with insulation and then covered all the interior body panels with sound deadening. In the interior sound deadening doubles as something that hold in the insulation too.

Before and after pics.

I gotta say, I’m super impressed with @weldtecdesigns and @xofab_offroad First of all, Weldtec took my order and custom made leaf springs plus put together their Baja Grocery Getter kit for me super fast. From day of purchase to the day everything was on my door step was less than two week. ...

First day trip in the van since doing the Baja Grocery Getter Full Performance package. Hauled the bike to a riding area and then took a few pics before I left.

Thanks, I ordered some Noico a couple days ago.

I’ll post some pics of progress in my build thread in a couple weeks. Right now I’m setting up to have the Weldtec kit installed. Then give it a test next weekend.
