Have you ever considered that.... one day we will run out of Econolines?

These parts it's pretty hard to find one with less than 200K km on it.

They do pop up... but it would be nice if someone made an affordable van body for the cutaways.

Sure but they keep showing up! I've been asked that since ~2012 when Ford announced the end of the full bodied vans but they keep coming! More every year, I think because none of the new vans are as robust or as versatile as the E series. And with the Class C Covid RV sales through the roof I think the E series will be around for a while.

My new DD got a roof rack today! Fully floored version of our RB rack, same size that we can ship. We'll be offering the panels as an upgrade soon, same for the new tie down plates on the sides. We also added some Baja Design lights on the sides and the rear along with a camera.

What is the weight of the full set up now?

Went to ck on V4 2.0 today, they're not close enough on body work to make me feel warm & fuzzy about my upcoming trip. Still have a Ton of work to do and I want it right so we're going to rip the spec van down and get it built in a week so I can take it! Nothing like a major deadline right before a trip. No pain no gain, we like punishment!

Progress! The install crew came in saturday and kicked some booty until they ran out of parts and things to do! I went with a Stage 2 D60, 4.88s, True trac, Spyntec hub conversion with SSBCs for this van along with some single Fox 2.0 res shocks. Just got word that we won't have any OX lockers for a few weeks so we're going to install the 4.88s with a factory posi until we get the lockers and some time to swap it. I may just forget about the locker and leave the posi. Transmission is off to be converted, front bumper is in final prep today, should be all together and running Friday!
