Blurry pic, but we started tearing down the silver van today (haven't named it yet!)



Made good progress, front hangers & springs are in, and the tranny is out and already at the shop getting converted to 4wd.

On another note, if anyone needs any parts this month, let me know asap. I'll be leaving NC on the 16th for the Expo in AZ, so the 11th will be my last shipping date. (gotta set some time aside to prep big V)

How about ESerieslyLargeVan?

Chris does/will a sliding door clear the aftermarket plastic fenders on a van? also if I get the fenders and still need to cut back the front opening will that be possible.

[FONT=&quot]Bushwacker discontinued the Ford van sliding door style flares a couple of years ago now, I hear some internet companies still have some in stock but to answer your question, no, the sliding door will not clear barn door style flares without modifying the doors sliding hinge or cutting the flare down.

well it seems bushwacker still makes the extend-a-fender for the van AND it shows them on a sliding door van to boot.

They may still show them on the site and the part # exists, but they've been discontinued for some time. I just checked my distributor to confirm.

 

[BIGVAN]

[FONT=&quot]Yes, discontinued on approximately 04/05/2010

A while back I showed some sliders mocked up on my rig, well here they are! I do plan to offer these once I have the additional supports mocked up & built. They'll be available as you see, simply bolted up to the pinch weld. Lets face it, most vans don't really NEED sliders, but they look good & clean up the area down there. Let me know what you think!

(I'll have pricing in June)

Looks GREAT! (Do they fit with Bushwackers?)

They look awesome. Not to bulky. Nice and clean.

 

[NLPRacing]

Looks great!

 

[ujoint]

Thanks! Excited about them. I'll need to take some dimensions & make some changes for the B/W flares so they fit nicely.
