If you are looking for a four-wheel-drive cargo van that is ready to hit the road or to be upfitted with additional amenities for extended travel, then this 2018 Ford Transit T350HD with a Quigley conversion could be your dream platform. You may remember that I recently selected the Ford Transit as my editor’s pick for best campervan chassis of 2020. This vehicle ups the ante with one of the best-rated aftermarket 4WD conversions available.
A Quigley conversion includes a four-high and four-low Magna transfer case, a manual shifter, a 4×4 indicator light, front hub assembly, and a 2-inch ride height increase. Learn more about Quigley 4×4 conversions here.
The interior of this Ford Transit has already been partially lined with Dynamat and Thinsulate SM600-L insulation. Two second-row leather reclining Sienna seats are mounted to custom bases and installed via L-track for flexibility. Also included with this vehicle are six steel wheels for use with a second set of tires.
From Francois
“I purchased this as a dream vehicle to convert into a go-anywhere moto-hauler that I could camp in, but have relocated out of the country, and it isn’t feasible to bring it with me. This is 1 of 8 Transits built in 2018 with dual rear-wheels and dual sliding-doors (with windows in the doors). In January of 2020, with about 7,400 miles on the odometer, I had it converted to four-wheel-drive at Quigley Motors in Pennsylvania, so I never had to worry about getting stuck.
If you’ve never driven an EcoBoost Transit, you will be surprised at how well it drives. The power is addictive, and it handles far better than a 22-foot-long and 10-foot-high vehicle should handle.
There are quite a few more details about the van, the options, and what has been done to it so far in my original classified listing.”
Francois’s 2018 Ford Transit is currently located in Tennessee and listed for $61,000. You can contact Francios with questions or offers via his original Expedition Portal forum post or via email at wellknownhermit[at]gmail[dot]com.
