    Point Five Ambo Build

    Good lord. I know my overhead wire trough had some stuff I. It, but I don't remember it being NEAR that much. What in the name of Tom Cruise Scientology could all that possibly be for? All my switches up in the cab are wired through one of those integrated deals like in your photo. But my...

    Boomer the Quadravan 4x4 Camper

    I'm confused. Did something "permanent" fail, or did you end up with something inadvertently super glued to your roof, or what? Did you get some on your hands right before a potty break and end up permanently attached to your Hootus (google it. Seriously)? "Potential for spectacular...

    Point Five Ambo Build

    Ok then, correct me where I'm going wrong, and this is all just assumption at this point.... That big circuit board thingy that all the main switches are plugged into has one big main connector, and from memory one or two smaller ones. From what I gathered all the little wires on that...

    Which e350?

    Two Excursions, one w/3.73 and other w/4.10 and a CC F-250 w/3.73. All 4x4. All of them could do an EASY 14 on the highway w 15-15.5 if I were trying a bit hard to get it. Never had a lick of spark plug trouble with any of them and they were all pre '05. Actually, never had any serious...

    Which e350?

    What? I've had a slew of V10s in various packages and could always pull down an easy 14-15 highway. Any 3xx series Ford I ever owned was measured in gallons per mile, except the 300-6. My F series with a 400M couldn't do better than 11 mpg if you put it .in neutral and shoved in out of...

    Point Five Ambo Build

    Haha! That's pretty much what mine looks like, though I think I still have the cover, just no knob. If you're looking to unload those panels my way, feel free. Long term goal is to replace that integrated mess with regular wired in switches, but I'm going to need help and it most likely...

    Point Five Ambo Build

    Hey Pat, I might have asked you this before but old memory and all. Do you still have your old analog thermostat for the box? And if so do you intend to use it? Mine works fine but the adjustment knob broke so now I have to use a multi-tool to adjust it. Or maybe somebody you know "in the...

    Which e350?

    I agree with Baha in that don't be in too big a hurry, but....of your choices I'm going to buck what seems the general consensus. I'd go with the '02. I've had all those engines and IMO none of them compare to the 6.8. As long as the under carriage and body are solid it would be my choice...

    I remember sweating this when I did my CJ-7. Spring over, 2-1/2" springs, 37s, roll cage, all the good stuff. I measured and measured and calculated and worried, over and over while doing the work. Game day came around and she rolled in with about 3/4" to spare. Happy Dance!

    Any tips on driving a 2wd van?

    A decent rule of thumb for off road in a 2x is if you wouldn't walk through it don't try to drive through it. :). A little extreme maybe but you probably get the point. Be very wary of watery/muddy stuff and know what it is before you get into it. Sometimes what looks like a couple of...

    From Freightliner ambulance to RV - we hope!

    Really? I went to my local Maaco and told them I wanted a 10 footer in basic white, the color it is now, and I'd pull all the lights, trim, blah blah, and they still wanted $3,000 to do it.

    Any Interest In Doing A 2016 Calendar?

    We talking swimsuit or nude? I mean I'm good with either but it's nice to know in advance so I can put in a little more work in certain areas. Don't wanna embarrass.

    FOUND Vans For Sale!

    Seems a bit on the steep side for what it is, regardless of mileage. Since no mention of the interior is made I'm guessing it's either gutted or equipped with some bench seating, which being swat would make sense. I paid around half that for a '92 with an interior that had already been pretty...

    97 F-350 CCLB build:

    Something else you can do for accessing stuff: Slide another sheet of plywood up under your platform. Screw a piece of 2x2 to the far end to keep stuff from sliding off, and put a rope handle at your tailgate end. Put all your under platform stuff on top of this and when you need it just...

    Opinions needed: Xterra, or alternatives?

    Jeep XJ. These are a bangin mid-sized vehicle good for hauling a significant something, misc offspring, a furry creature, and some stuff. A solid power train in the later years and the engine is legendary for low end grunt and longevity. Decent but not stellar highway mileage, cheep parts...

    My guess is if you don't have an 8 ft door you won't get in. Most likely a 7.5 ft door won't cut it and I haven't seen one in between sooo.
