Noobie question... What top is on that white van?

SMB

Does your arm hit any of those switches? I rest my arm on the door most of the time. I had something slide off the bed and hit my switch panel yesterday. I don't know how long I was driving with my side porch light on lol. I know I passed a cop though. He probably thought, ******?

I've only accidentally hit a switch once.

Is that light bar just attached to a single ski rack thing? I definitely think thats brilliant and would love to hear how he did it.

Chris, I also don't know how you don't hit those buttons all the time, I would have them all flipped on at once ha ha. I love the location on the dash for the newer vans though.

Blah blah, another van flexed out. Final dims pulled before we make the new shock towers for the King goodies. And the rear bumps.

Who says a leaf spring setup can't flex ... cool picture!

Measuring the susp correctly--I like that.

What year models rear axle do you prefer? I just drove around my brothers storage yard and found an '08 3.73 limited slip that I can scoop up for free.

I always build the 05-07 but that 08 should basically be the same. They have a different flange on the pinion.

Ok thanks! Is there any years to steer clear of? I might have a lead on a totaled '14 or '15 gasser with a factory e-locker as well.

Another new arrival, 5.4 going 6" from AR.

Excited to set this beast down and drive it. Should be tomorrow.
