there are more and more tree care companies that have cranes. BOth stick boom and knucklebooms. YOu might find that hiring them when their work is slow to be quite economical.

There is CAD and then there is The Other CAD...Cardboard Aided Design. Blue tape is wonderful too. Planning storage logistics is important. You'll likely have a fold-out bed. You don't want to fold out on top of something that you need during bed time. After cardboard you could dummy together...

Look in the direction of a cutaway/box/cube van. Think of a small uhaul. Since many are built on Ford chassis you could buy the 4wd kit from one of the vendors.

I bought mine for about 60% of retail from Craigslist. RB Marketplace has had them too.

I've got a '97. Stock buckets. I could take pics I'm in Minneapolis so shipping might be a deal breaker. I'd make you a good deal so that they don't go to the dump. I could plastic wrap/cardboard if you did the research for Shipping costs Drop me an email treeview 4 Gmail.com

I'm on my third Astro/Safari. #2 &. #3 = AWD Even with headroom of a high top I really doubt there's enough cubic room to be comfortable for much more than short trips. Especially if anyone is tall and needs a fore n aft bed arrangement. The newest you'll find is an '05. What is low mileage...

I've got a box van, Uhaul-like, that will be home soon The box is aluminum I'm thinking that I'll use two 2" layers of foam for the ceiling. A 2" and 1" layers for walls and 1" foil on both sides for floor. Plywood or FRP for skinning Is that enough insulation? I don't plan on being in sub...

Paint looks great! Those white flaps look like fiber reinforced ones. Keep em. Check the DOT regs to make sure the flaps are wide enough and long enough. There's some formula about percentages lower than the center of the tire

When I finished the interior of my '82 E250 I used cheap wood faced paneling After camping in it during the winters I found that the condensation saturated the ceiling paneling and it started to delaminate...a mess I'd recommend fiberglass reinforced plastic sheets. Smooth side out. No water...

I bought one of this trucks siblings. The floor is in better shape but some rot to deal with Now that the floor is up it looks like the perfect time to replace the fuel pump I'm doing that on my Astro van right now. I went in from the top by cutting a hole in the sheet metal. Even with a new...
