Hi to everybody. Long time lurker here. I thought I will post few pics of my van - 2006 E350 diesel with Ujoint 6'' + CCV potop.
I have it short time only, since it took me a full year to finally get it home in Poland. It was converted by Chris at Ujoint and than poptop was made by CCV.
I love this van!
Chris made an exellent Job on conversion!
Lots of plans for interior and many extras, will make a buid thread.
First two pics still from CCV and last one when I have finally picked the van.

Here's mine. 2004 E150 XLT 5.4L, factory LSD. We tow a boat in the summers so a minivan wasn't going to work too well (plus my wife and I both grew up with full sized vans and love them) With two kids under two and in car seats, with more to come, it's been nice to have lots of space, instead of cramming the family in the cab of the Tacoma.

Sitting where she has been for ~ a year. Went by today and getting plan or action together to get it running and driving. Finally. Then buildout can begin. My wife and I have a side bet going that I won't finish by June.

Also got tires mounted on my rims. Debating on what I need to do to get them to fit. My entire front end needs rebuilt too so trying to see what's the best option to possibly kill 2 birds with one stone.

Yeah, I did it myself. It's Clear Focus ClassicVue 50/50, ordered online from fellers.com. Just peel and stick on the outside, then trim the edges along the glass.

Is your front lifted at all? My van has more stink bug rake to it and I'm pretty sure that tire size would rub a lot.

Same question. With rebuilding the front end I want to do it once. Would love Ujoint 4wd but don't think it's in the budget. These 265s are the largest I plan on running and it will be a DD for our family. So small lift is fine. I'm open to WeldTec etc as well but it depends on what other items I have to purchase on top of the kit to rebuild my front end.

Stock suspension w/ Bilstein shocks on each corner.
Plenty of weight inside and only the slightest rubbing at full lock.

But a BFH was needed to massage the fenders a little.

You will need a 2" lift and a hammer to make them fit. I have done 3 of them now and thats about what it takes. Make sure you order 3 degree upper shims for your alignment.
