I just bought a 86 quart one for $399 delivered. Seems like a smoking deal. I'm not too worried about the size since it will go in my sprinter.

I was much happier with the 4:10s than I was with the 3.:73s. The main thing I noticed that effected my mileage was how heavy my foot was. I had single shot injectors for the last 12k I owned the van. In theory you get better mileage with single shots, but I think I choose to utilize the...

I agree with Nely. Getting the engine out of the van is not a very fun job, and I would rather switch everything (plus the inside is rather ghetto (great for a surf van, but its below most peoples standards ;-) )). The Ujoint kit is really pretty easy to install. He wouldn't need to buy the...

I think I might have everything you need. My engine on my 2000 E350 with the 7.3l blew and I have all of the 4x4 parts you'd need. Dana 60 Front Axle with 4:10 gears (completely rebuilt 50K ago) with Warn Locking Hubs Dana 60 Full Float Rear Axle (completely rebuilt 50K ago) with 4:10 gears...

I feel your pain. You feel like your going around and round in circles.

I signed up yesterday! I've always like the Sprinters especially after watching your build. I'm glad you still like yours.

I'm ending up getting a 2006 Sprinter. I'll be loosing the 4x4, but I think it will work really well for the way I plan to use it. Its a cargo van so I can fix it the way I want.

Thank you for the tip. I'm going to be looking for scrap yards pretty soon. Anybody have and idea of a good on near Orange County, CA?

Thanks for the imput. I was hoping there was a simple name I could search for (but it doesn't surprise me that there isn't since I couldn't find one).

I was at a tournament yesterday and I saw a small motorhome/day camper that was based on the e350. I believe that it was a chinook. This seemed like it would be perfect for the way I plan to use it and I could transfer all my ujoint parts to it. My main goal is to take it to my son's weekend...

Thank you for all the information about the smog ref. Its making an ambulance sound better and better. I've seen plenty of the 7.3's for sale, and all the parts would be an easy transfer (or at least as easy as a transfer can be on a van). If I go about stripping my van in my driveway I think...

I can't really say. I made it to be a great surf van for me, but its often described as ghetto ;-) Besides the engine its mechanically in good condition.

I'd really appreciate any help or guidance you can offer!!!

No its completely non running. I just talked with OC Diesel and they thought it would be $4000+. I don't think that I'm going to fix it. I would love to strip the parts off it, but that might stress out my master planned neighbors too much. Any suggestions?

Thank you very much! Does the class of the vechicle apply to the E350 engine going into a E150 since the E350 is more heavy duty?

I was one of the early purchasers of Chris' van 4x4 kit. I've been very happy with it, but I've run into some engine problems that are forcing me to evaluate which way I want to go and I'm looking for some imput. My van is a 2000 E350 with the 7.3l diesel engine. It was formally the Château...

I've been enjoying this tread - keep the pictures coming.

Thanks for the info

The the axle come out of the F350 or does it also come out of the F250. Are there any other trucks it comes out of?
