The front seats in my 1997 Ambulance are tired after 18k hours on the road. I'm looking at these seats from a 2021 E450 and wanting to know if they will fit without redesigning the world... I'd probably dye them to match, but what do you all think?

I've got a '97 ambulance that a few years back I replaced the front brakes with 2001 parts... I also replaced the Master and booster with 2001 parts. I've been looking into 2008 and newer larger and thicker rotors and calipers. This is roughly what they'd look like. The first option would be...

Taking a break from building an arc. I went to collect masks to wash from my rig, and found steady drips from 2-3 places. Of course they are coming from above the moulded plastic ceiling making it impossible to determine where they originated. For now I’ve thrown a tarp over the roof… since...

Next Ambo project. It came off a 10.25 Sterling axle in a 1995 F250. It looks like it should fit my Dana 70 axle. It looks like it should be able to connect to the frame with a couple custom mounts/brackets. Being a 1.125” bar it won’t be as stiff as a 1.5” Helwig bar. That doesn’t mean it...

I feel like he stole my bed design… only difference being I was planning it on the passenger side.

Installed in Hella E- rectangular headlights. Initial Trials on low beams at dawn... H4 Halogen - Left side H4 XU LED - Right side Both Headlights Halogen & LED So obviously they are way brighter than Hella Halogen H4 bulbs. Now to the problem :( High/Low beams & extra driving lights all...

I’m wanting to know what people are using. I was running a Samlex SSW-2000-12 pure sine inverter that died outside of warranty. Looking for a new one and thought I’d ask the community. I don’t want too cheap... but beer budget and champagne tastes. 2020 has been hard on all of us. I’d like to...

I just picked this up for my 4x4. I thought a similar one might come in handy for anyone wanting to put flooded lead acid batteries inside their build. Normally it is not safe to have them inside... because they need to be properly vented. Solution: This box is designed to have a battery...

I’ve recently learned that E-Series vans have a major weakness in the door hinge area. It’s not likely to become a problem on a low mileage van... but on my 23 year old Ambo, it is becoming one. Visual aide... The doors sheet metal isn’t robust enough to not fatigue over time. In this case...

‘97 E350. The sheet metal where the upper drivers door hinge attaches to the door has started to twist and over extend. Apparently it’s not an uncommon for the doors to crack... but how to fix. The door is wrapped...as is the Ambo, so replacing the door isn’t an option. Thoughts? I’m tempted...

This morning when I hopped in the ‘97 E350 there was the distinct smell of burning wire insulation. Best guess is from the vents. It got worse while driving. Ambo unit powered down. google points me towards the heater motor &/or resistor. I swapped in a lower mile ‘01 blower a couple years...

Every once in a while my ‘97 oil gauge reads low. If I fiddle with the connection an the sender (switch) it’ll go back to reading ‘normal’. I know it doesn’t measure pressure... other than it being more than 7 psi. If it wasn’t also that the oil pressure light also shines, I could more easily...

This looks like the perfect runaround to load up. Thoughts?https://us.babysalenew.com/products/sur-ron-electric-dirt-bike?pr_prod_strat=collection_fallback&pr_rec_pid=3680121684048&pr_ref_pid=3680120635472&pr_seq=uniform How can it be only $269 including shipping?

Last winter my monitor wouldn’t power on intermittently when it got too cold. I found if I left it on and wrapped a scarf around it. If I blew the heat on it it would come on and work perfectly. Fast forward, it has started doing it now when it’s warmer. I’ve narrowed the problem down to the...

I’m recommending changing the oil in your HPOP Reservoir if you haven’t already. Don’t believe anyone who tells you otherwise. Initial impression is that throttle response has improved, but so far I’ve only driven around the block and not gone far.

Now and then I could use an extra seat. Any idea what the middle seat came from? It sort of looks like it’s not bolted down. It looks like it could fit.

‘97 E350 with 7.3 PSD Been chasing a number of things that have been making the (BRAKE!) idiot light come on. Fluid level now full Parking brake off Now only one thing left that comes and goes... Low Vacuum! Pump the brakes at idle a few times it comes on... rev it up for a minute and it...

Considering buying a Dometic 12v fridge. Looking at a CR-50... thoughts? What are you running?

I’ve got a friend looking at a ‘98 gas Delica. Going to check it out with him. Anything to look for? 10k reasonable ask?

On average I'm replacing all 4 batteries at just over 1 year. Need some extra brain power to help solve this. Batteries: 4 - 850 CCA Kirkland starting batteries Charging: 215 A Mitsubishi Alternator (<1000 hrs) works 100% Head 60 max 40 cont amp 13.8v shore charger Loads: 5a fridge on house...
