Tom, just did the wet wiper upgrade to my NCV3. Very excited to have washer fluid spray evenly onto the windscreen v spraying every direction except onto the windscreen. As always, thank you for doing all this, documenting it and posting it up here so we can be inspired. Side notes: I am...

Bison overland has created a really cool pop top garage based camper that can hold two bikes. They are also working on hard side truck campers, so I think the garage and hard side camper is the next logical step. It is so interesting to me how many people have these really cool campers and they...

This might also be stuff you already know and it doesn't answer your question, but there are low interior roof ambulances and high interior roof ones. the low roofs are like 5'4" interior after a build and the high roof ones are over 6', so I imagine that might play a role in your choice also?

nice! It is def fun taking the entire day to watch a race. I want to get down for one of the Bajas one of these days. Nice pics

Rad trip pics! Nitnat Lake doesn't usually fire for wind until summer time. When the wind is on, you can't even find a spot there. You guys def went at the right time (unless you were there for wind activities, haha)

Baja 2022 Pt2 We ended up driving all the way down to the intersection of Hwy 5 and Hwy 1. Surprisingly, it was raining and super windy down there. We stopped at the little restaurant there, had a hot chocolate and headed back north on Hwy 5. We spent the night at Rancho Grande and I think...

Baja 2022 Pt 1 We had planned to do a Christmas jaunt down to Baja, but the annual snow-pocalyse hit the day we planned to leave. With little desire to become a fixture on I5 somewhere between Seattle and northern California, the trip was postponed to a nicer weather week. That week happened...

My mistake! I rounded down too far.

This is great! Will be great to see more transits on 33s with this kit v the 31s that will be on those AWD vans. also, the barn door is excellent, was that a factory option?

Right? looks like that thing has been on there since '03. maybe even throw a rag at it? based on the amount of errors in the description, they don't really care seems like. According to the video below, Swamps Diesel in Tennesee did a full refurbishing. Ujoint actually said it dynoed at...

Looks like AlphaVan is up for auction, no reserve! https://www.mecum.com/lots/AZ0322-495290/2003-ford-e350-custom-camper-van/

here is a diesel ambulance with the taller interior in seattle https://seattle.craigslist.org/see/ctd/d/kent-2006-ford-econoline-e450-ambulance/7423565282.html

Not to sully up this unfortunate thread, but if I were you, I would just go straight to UJoint for your conversion. They have opened a shop in Colorado so you don't have to drive all the way to NC anymore. Don't bother going anywhere else IMO. Also to the OP, this is such a bummer! I would...

Awesome build and awesome thread. Ottawa raised, living near Seattle now. Can't believe it took me as long as it did to move out west. Looking forward to following along!

Epic! Those wheels are excellent! Are you going to bag it?

This is way cool. Do you have any pictures during the process? or a youtube channel to see the restoration process? nice work! what a cool piece of kit!

oh, here are some Deutsh bulkead connectors. they look spendy, but maybe something like that would be a good idea, so you don't have cords dangling around. https://racewiresolutions.mysimplestore.com/products/deutsch-bulkhead-panel-connectors

This might be a weird answer, but what about just flipping the jacks over so they stick up instead of down? also, for electrical quick disconnects, I recommend Deutsch connectors. nice and waterproof and super easy to connect and disconnect.

What have you been doing with the 2wd weld-tech parts when you pull them off those vans?

I disagree with these two comments. If you were buying a pre-emissions diesel, I would say these comments are correct, but the new diesels with all the emissions stuff etc etc, I don't think they are worth the cost or hassle anymore. Longevity is reduced via the emissions stuff and the added...
