    JK Ursa Minor for Sale

    This is not mine and I'm not affiliated with the seller. I stumbled across it during my periodic searches of rigs near me ( north of Boston). This one is located about an hourish west of Boston. I thought members on this forum may be interested...

    Love the conversion. The 5.4 has plenty of power but I don’t tow. Chris regeared to 4.56 which helps a lot. Rides better when loaded—softens some of the stiffness. One thing to watch for is saggy rear springs. My rear end droops a little when fully loaded. Considering sending back down to Chris...

    Options for 3-point belts and head restraints?

    I also have an EB passenger van. I removed all the OEM seats and have 2 Siennas in the 2nd row and went with a set of Tahoe 3rd row seats for my third row. The nice thing about these seats is that they have integrated 3pt belts and the seats fold flat. Not as comfy as the Siennas, but decent...

    RTIC Coolers

    I have 2 RTICs--45 and 65. 45 is good for a 3-4 day trip. Downside is that the handles suck. On first use, the handle fell apart as I lifted the cooler into the truck. RTIC wouldn't honor the warranty.

    Build Thread: “Excellent Adventure Van”; A Ujoint 4x4 on 35’s Overland Rig in the Making

    Thanks for sharing. I know how discouraging these set backs can be. But when it's all done (if ever), you'll have some battle scars and war stories which will make the end that much more gratifying. I bought a van in Colorado and drove it back to Boston. It's been a money pit ever since, but...

    Chevy Suburban pop top adventure build

    Agree with everyone about keeping this thread here. Your craftsmanship is amazing. It definitely fits with vans and I think we appreciate this so much more than the followers of the generic full size rigs.

    Flipping Detroit Truetrac gears? Rear in the front!? Anybody done this on something as big and heavy as a E350/D60???

    The only flaw I see in your analysis is the budget. In my experience, it's the first thing to break.

    4x4 E350 7.3 Diesel - The Long Wool Adventure Van

    Mine is a Ujoint conversion, not a Quigley, and the shifter is on the floor. I installed driver and passenger swivels from 1der on this forum. The driver seat just clears the shifter. The swivels are awesome and I highly recommend them.

    FOUND Vans For Sale!

    It's pretty frustrating these scammers. Whenever I see a post I do 2 google searches to see if the listing comes up elsewhere: I search the images and I select a section of the text description for a search. I also click the reply button to respond to the ad to see if it lists a number with...

    Econoline Van Swivel Seat Bases

    I finally got around to installing a set in my other van, an '03. Since the original seat covers and frame were in horrible shape, I bought a set of front seats from a guy who was parting out an '08 up van. I took the bases and wiring harness and had the newer seats recovered. When I went to...

    WeldTec Designs 4" suspension upgrade "Ocotillo Cruiser"

    Thanks. I like your build. I just tore out my interior and was thinking of doing something similar as yours with storage boxes on the side to keep the center open.

    WeldTec Designs 4" suspension upgrade "Ocotillo Cruiser"

    Looks like a great option. I was considering this as an alternative to 4x4 conversion so contacted Jeremy. He called and was super helpful. I'm still undecided, but have more info to make a decision. I'd love to hear how others who have gone with the Ocotillo kit like it. Thanks

    Take a look at this ambo build by member Abitibi: https://www.expeditionportal.com/forum/threads/ambuland-build-thread.103768/page-29 He put a hard shell RTT on an ambulance. Very cool and well done.

    An RTT mounted on top of camper shell with crawl thru entry from inside shell?

    A guy who posts on the van section did this in an ambulance. I think he used a JB tent. Cut a hole in the bottom and mounted directly to the roof of the ambulance so you could enter the tent from inside. It’s pretty slick. Search for the thread and check out the pics of his build. I think the...
