For offroad especially sand, you want the smallest rim with the tallest , thinnest tire so you can air down and float on the surface

I am not doing trails per se , I am just trying to get my van to the best campsites. Offroading is not at all my hobby outside of this. I grew up in a very rural area with lots of barely passable logging roads so my tire placement skills are pretty advanced. I only have the 2 inch traxda lift...

I dont think you can put in the 4L80 because it messes up the computer. My van does really well off road in mexico , the biggest problem is its geared way to high

If you have half as many adventures in that van as I have had in mine, its well worth the price.

that is a sweet rig. I guessing that cost quite a bit eh?

Do you have a donor van or are you going to try to buy all the parts?

Moving this is going to require a step deck unless you figure out a way to rig heavy duty hitch to bold onto the front so it could be flat towed

If you are not camping off road or on beaches, then for sure dont bother getting awd , it so hard to find one at a reasonable price

I have an AWD express van and I never miss not having another 20 inches but its just me in the van usually. Also , even with KO2s I can 18mpg on the highway if I keep it under 70 mph I would never trade the AWD for longer wheelbase but I am also off road quite a bit in mexico

I do lots of beach driving in mexico in my awd express van with a locker Could not be happier and the used prices are coming down pretty fast

Did they all get that? I am pretty sure that the came with six bolt rims because they could not upgrade the front to 3/4 ton components

Baja is exactly the reason I buy KO2s, you can always get a replacement down there because so many people run them. You could probably even find a used one Also a good argument for buying 5 new tires and rotating them all

This is why I never went with taller tires. My vans gearing is too tall as it is. In deep sand reverse gear is so tall I have to make sure I dont have to use it.

Do the front seats have to match? Get one from an old junked volvo semi that has the Bose Ride system , you will be the coolest van guy on the internet

That photo of your rig in front of the church really put a smile on my face today I have a feeling your gremlins have all left the van If they ever return, maybe try a stained glass porthole window

That first picture reminds me of this You have awesome friends , enjoy this time in your life my brother, this is the good stuff.

I got that as well , no idea how I ended up on the mailing list I am a DIY guy and even though I will probably knock together a new van soon , I am not investing 200k in one
