I keep checking with them. Nothing on the site, and I have emailed inquiries every few months, and always told they don't make one; Only the front bumpers are available. Should not be too hard to make something work from a different GMC model.
Nope on the rear. They apparently don't make one. The pics you provided must have been in the same vein you went with; different vehicle nodded to fit.
Have any pics of your mounts? I would have gone your route as well, especially for the price.
What's your build budget? Planning to fab anything yourself or just bolt on?
I don't think WeldTec has anything for the AWD vans, but they certainly have you covered with regards to rocksliders and bumpers. Everyone seems to be really happy with their build quality and service.
Have you cycled it through a couple starts?
I have had the issue on my 3500 of anytime I have had to disconnect the battery, my service stabiltrak alarm and traction control alarm comes on. It usually takes three starting cycles of start van, let it run for 30 seconds, shutdown, repeat. Just...
Scab plate is a plate of metal that is welded onto the frame to allow a larger footprint to distribute the weight or force exerted on the sliders. Rather than having 1.5" steel tube welded directly the frame and distributing it over say a 7 sq in area, you would now spread that load over a 24-36...
Welded to the frame. Was initially going to do a bolt in affair, but the thought of spacers and doing 64 holes was a no go. Who wants to Swiss cheese their frame? Easier just to burn it in. And if the time comes to remove it, a sawzall comes to the rescue. Now, I know my setup is knowhere near...
Have an OEM Chevy Express 3500 transmission cooler at 8000 miles. Undersized for actual needs and replaced with a larger Tru-Cool unit. This would work perfect as a power steering fluid cooler.
Free to a good home.

Despite the different size frames, the front suspension components should still be the same. Your van can utilize C3500 pickup components to achieve a front lift, assuming it is a 2000 3500 Express. Your generation of van shared front suspension components with C-body trucks - so that means...
I am not really even into Euro vans, but I love this thread. Your dedication and attention to detail is inspiring. Keep up the excellent work! Look forward to the updates and can get that bad boy on the road.
Luverne makes a stainless nerf bar, but she is pricey. Pushing almost $900.

Cheaper than Aluminess. One thing I did like about the Luverne steps was their mounts. Rather than attach to the pinch weld or body sheet metal like...
Do it!??
I am pretty much doing the same thing you are, minus the build thread. I will have to compile my pictures and info and actually, like, contribute.
