    The Ute II: E350 RB 7.3 ZF6

    The adapter boss is only used for autos, between the crank and flexplate. The talk of removing is pertinent because it is the same OD as the end of the crank and does not appear to be a seperate part at first glance. In other words, if your crank looks like it protrudes past the end of the pan...

    The Ute II: E350 RB 7.3 ZF6

    Cheers PW! I did not change the diffs. They are 3.73 and match the ZF6 w/35's perfect in my opinion.

    The Ute II: E350 RB 7.3 ZF6

    Yes, and yes you should. Proceed post-haste. I rationalize an over-sized shop with the traditional "Use it or lose it" philosophy. Works well.

    The Ute II: E350 RB 7.3 ZF6

    No problem. I'm overdue on a vid anyway. I'm an ME so a shop is required for everything (or at least it should be for ME's worth their salt)!

    My .02: Get a big locking box for the bikes on the roof, or anywhere but inside. I can't imagine putting up with them in that small of a space for that long. Like parking your car in your bedroom.

    Class C 4x4 to travel the western hemisphere- anyone done it?

    Yeah don't over think it. Maybe fly down for a month and rent a camper from Wicked as an appetizer? Bottom line: simplicity wins, and you can make whatever you end up with work. The nature, culture, and random beauty you experience will make the trip, not your vehicle.

    Class C 4x4 to travel the western hemisphere- anyone done it?

    We spent the 2016 summer in South America, from Columbia to Patagonia and most of the between (we stuck to the west coast for the most part, sans Argentinian east coast, i.e. no Brazil). You CAN do it in a Corolla. We only used 4WD when we chose to play on beaches or to find a secluded spot...

    Gnarvan AWD Express build.

    Same here, the limited coastal access surprised us too. Bummer about the neck but glad to hear it wasn't worse. I've lost a few friends on the mountain, happens too frequently. Mend well!
