With so low miles it's hard to value that. There are not many comparables. I'd say just for the base van 15-25k. You'll have to find the right buyer to accept the high side of that. Then add 15k for the Quigley conversion. 30-40k, right now maybe pad an extra 5k since these vans are in such demand.

Hear you on Open Front and LSD Rear. That was the plan before having to re-gear. Lunchbox style is attractive as the price is cheap and it'll likely see only minimal mileage. The more I think about it, the less inclined I am to change it from an open diff. Open diff (Free) Pro: Known Driving...

I had my thought going towards returning the Yukon 4.30 and getting a Elite gear 4.30 with a zip locker. It's on the front axle so I doubt if the gear sees more than 1K in it's lifetime, so I probably don't need Yukon quality there. Problem with that is, I don't see any kits with a 4.30 gearing...

What did you do to reinforce the bumper mount?

This is a good point, any recommendations? I don't really want to introduce air lockers, so maybe an electric locker. LSD would likely be cheaper and just easier overall. I'm not planning to do any serious rock crawling, so a LSD would likely be fine for mud/snow. (Edit) Actually looks like LSD...

4x4 Conversion is beginning. I have the axles, although there was a slight hick-up on the front axle. The axle they sent was a '14 3.73 not a 4.30. Luckily they refunded me the full amount and let me keep the axle. The crappy part is now I'm delayed in starting the under van work. I had options...

MG caster adjustment for the radius arms. First go was a mess, the other three cuts were more precise. With a digital caliper I measured 10mm over in-line with the current opening. Then marked the hole with a white paint pen and attempted to cut it out with a jigsaw and Dremel to finish. The...

Anyone have detailed pictures of the front-end completed (or a thread w/ front end pictures)? Getting organized and trying to lay it together to check my part list. It seems like I might have missed a part or two.

Congrats on the new ride! Any service engine soon light? Failing glow plugs should throw a code. Additionally how long does it take to kick over when starting? Without glow plugs, even with engine block heater, it should be fairly long to build up the needed heat thorough compression if they...

Next up for the HazVan, MG Metal 4x4 conversion. Looked at all the various kits and even drove a couple but decided on MGs kit balancing cost and part availability. Liked the use of standard or easily obtained aftermarket parts, plus option of using a newer axle with lower mileage and bigger...

I'd be interested when/if you offer those for sale.

Check in for the transmission cooler. It's made a substantial difference in temps going up the grapevine or Schwinn grade. Driving around town it's around 140, rises a bit freeway going 70 in temp 90+. Will get up to standard 170 going up grade in temps over 70. Haven't seen it over 190 since...

Neat find. Fuel mileage, handling, towing, etc would have to suffer with added weight of the armor.

Thanks for the reply! How's it holding up?

Have you checked the oil level? Has it ever been replaced? Sent from my Pixel 2 using Tapatalk

Swapped out the transmission cooler for a trucool cooler. Fairly quick, took about two hours. I have the bypass as well but haven't installed it yet.

Did you use the harbor freight bed liner on the lower section of the van as well?

@Weldtec Designs For the octo lift, what's the recommended tire size?

Still have the mirrors? If so, shipping to 90250? Sent from my Pixel 2 using Tapatalk
