    UJOR Build Thread

    OK, I did pull the trigger! 2006 SMB RB E350 . Found what I think is a 10.5 Sterling rear out of a 2007 F250 about 3 hours from here. Parts guy says the axle code is V447M and 4L301056E11. So as near as I can figure, this is a 4.30 limited slip, but the V447M throws me off - can't find...

    UJOR Build Thread

    Hey folks - just making sure my budget for new van will allow UJOR kit. Looking at 5.4 vans. Going with 6", but looking for slightly shorter and narrower tires, like 305/70/17 or 285/75/17. Both of those seem to be about 33.9". Local wreckers seem to have Dana 60s and Sterlings with 4.30...

    UJOR Build Thread

    UJOR swap without lift? I'm about to pull the trigger on an E350 with plans to do a UJOR 6" swap. I've got good mechanical skills - engine rebuilds, suspension swaps, engine swaps and some budding fabrication skills, but woke up in a sweat last night thinking, holy ******t, can I do it without a...

    Recalled to life: my 80 (re)build thread

    Here are a few pics of my water system. I have a 12 gallon main tank behind the seat and a 4 gallon hot tank. The hot tank is plumbed to a heat exchanger. The water in that is circulated via a switch on the dash. The level of heat added is controlled by the heater temp slider and the amount of...

    Excellent idea. I agree. I only use the stove in the westy camped at ski areas in winter. In summer I cook outside. I would trade mine for a weekender for sure!
