Been a minute! Its been A--holes and elbows around here trying to get up and running in the new shop, and still try and stay caught up with builds all by myself! Finally found a great hire though, should be starting very soon! Anyways, here's a recap.
Busting through

Putting it right to work

15k lift is nice

Moved tires and axle building into the new space

B190 about wrapped up! full vantge optics kit and baja lights running through our SPOD setup

Diving right in to the next one, 50k miles 2014 v10 RB. The holy grail! Unbelievably clean

Hover mode

Getting there

Gold!

Added a UJOR rack, CVT tent and awning

Next one in! Super low mile 2004 E150. Got it setup with all the exterior kit first, waiting on trans to come back to get started on the conversion!

 

[UjointoffroadCO]

Also have this spec van up for sale! 2014 v10 / 5r110 EB with 9,673 miles on it! Yes you read that right. van is literally spotless inside and out. Asking $70k with our 6" conversion kit under it on 35" tires. Happy to build to whatever spec you'd like for an additional cost. Please email at justin@ujointoffroad.com to enquire!

Good eye! Sure that's not a V10 Justin?

Hmm! You guys piqued my interest…

I just ran the VIN and do believe that this is a v10 based on the Monroney Labels widow sticker.

 

[UjointoffroadCO]

Yep! Does look like its a v10! Guess I should have looked for myself!

 

[motovan_mn]

Dang, even more drool worthy...

Trying really hard not to have van envy ?

Price just went up

 

[UjointoffroadCO]

Yeah, bumped the price a bit. Thanks for the keen eye @Raul!

Pretty stoked you are doing the older B-190s.
May have to reach out.

I'm really trying not to do anything older than 2000 now. They are getting near impossible to fins transmission parts for these days. If it is a particularly nice v10, I'd probably consider it, but likely wont be doing any pushrod engine vans from here on out.

Justin,
Sorry to hear that, but I understand. Chris has told me the same thing.
I may end up having to keep my Chevrolet Roadtrek 3500. I have a Weldtec 5 inch lift on it, which is good, but with all my RV crap underneath it, there is just not enough clearance.
I know that Boulder Offroad Vans does a straight axle 4X4 conversion which gives adequate lift. Unfortunately, and surprisingly, there is very limited information on the Internet about this company or their work.
Thanks for the response.

I installed a boulder offroad kit a while back on a AWD express and I was not impressed with the quality of the parts. The instructions were nearly useless, they never returned any of my multiple phone calls, and the fit of all the parts was dismal.
