    2003 E350 swap power windows and locks

    Ouch. That’s gonna be a tough fix. I found a donor van on fb marketplace. They are selling me the doors, and the SJB. I think my van is already wired for everything. If not, I will buy the harness from them as well.

    Wife and I made a quick WNC trip. Just 5 days. I tested the Starlink and it works great. Trying to figure out a flagpole setup for the Starlink as well. Archetype Brewing for the night (Harvest Hosts): Lake Powhatan. Great spot, no power. But has water in each loop. Not at each site. The...

    2003 E350 swap power windows and locks

    Reviving this thread and it's bookmarked. I have manual doors, and windows. And in the process of hunting down 2 doors with everything I need. I did check the SJB and the fuse was missing for #F17 but the fuse was there for #F47. I will pull the SJB, just not today. And see if there is...

    FB Marketplace find, 2019 Sterling 10.5 with factory E locker - $400. Opened it up and saw some rust. Thought it was gonna be worse than it was, but just light surface rust on the outside of the diff. I pulled the diff apart and there was no rust on the inside, and the locker works just...

    YUP. Shower finished: I had a issue with the mini split that was a warranty issue. They swapped it out, and I moved the condenser over the bed. LOVE IT. Shelves built:

    Shower framed up, mortar base is down. It looks like a lot of mortar, but it's only 1/4" thick. I am using foam Kerdi Board for the walls and pebble floors. FRP will be glued to the Kerdi board. A Oatey shower pan liner will go on top of the mortar base. Also insulation! Also installed the...

    I've been wanting to order a kit from Ujoint, but haven't because I REALLY want a 2024 cutaway chassis. As some of you know I work offshore. I have 2 weeks left at work, and I knew where there is a 2024 for sale. Today I hit them up, to start the buying process. Knowing I have to take my box...

    Interior is put together the best it can be for the trip. The only thing that's not finished is trim and the shower. The toilet is in the shower and it's been working great. Actually, everything has. Still working on figuring out storage in the box truck, but that will take time once we use it...

    2014 Ford E-350 12ft SRW Box Truck

    I am waiting to get off work (I'm on a boat), to weigh the box truck. Then I can order the 4WD kit through UJOR. After walking around in the box truck, and doing a lot of head scratching, we think we are going to remove the closet, and put a desk there. That way the wife can work while we are...

    Van vs Truck Camper

    Truck camper. All the way. The biggest reason is #vanlife is over and vendors are dying off. I have a 12ft box truck that I converted to a RV. It's a 2014 chassis. Soon it will have a 2024 chassis, same box. Then UJOR 4wd kit. So, I'm not getting rid of it any time soon. I've had vans...

    I don't mind the 5.4. Doesn't have crazy power, but gets the job done. I need to finish the shower, but that will have to wait until after our trip we're about to go on. I have a toilt we will use. But the box truck is camp ready-ish. Nespresso machine: Found these roll up blinds at...
