    Under body power distribution

    I’m looking to add a power distribution block/fuse panel under my van. Supplied by the under body leisure battery bank. It will get mounted out of direct water/mud, unlikely to see deep water crossings etc. Any recommendations for a “waterproof” unit? I live in the PNW and it can stay pretty...

    Tow hitch upgrade

    I have a 97 e350 eb. Looking to reinforce the hitch to limit the flex up and down at the receiver. The cross bar seems to be the area that moves. It seems to twist a little bit and I would like to minimize this. I have the spare mounted under there still so space is limited. Has anyone done...

    Edgestar fridge diagnosis

    I have an fp430 that has quit cooling. I’ve read through the fridge mod thread and searched for other similar issues and have not found a similar case. Symptoms are the same on ac and dc power. The fan, compressor and temp settings all work. The fan and compressor run continuously with no...

    Econoline cat converter protection

    The catalytic converter on my van was stolen recently. Before I get the replacement installed for good I’d like to have some type of protection to install along with it. My internet research has showed various cables, chains, cages, and plates. But not too many econoline specific designs. It...

    Econoline slider door area seat belt mount location

    I have a 97 E350 cargo van. Looking to add a 3rd captain seat right inside the slider door. Does anyone have pictures of where the seat belt would mount? The lower reel and upper anchor locations would be helpful for me. All the pictures I find online are looking into the van and are usually...

    Measurement needed

    I was hoping someone with a known lift height of 4 or 6 inches could take a measurement for me. On a Ford e350. Mine is a 97 but I don't think it should matter. Trying to figure out how much lift my van has. Am looking for the distance from the center of the front wheel hub straight up to the...

    E350 ABS questions

    Hey guys, I have a 1997 E350. I am having some braking issues and in researching it I have found a possible problem with the master cylinder or the RABS valve. Was it possible to get a van in 97 without any ABS? Front or rear? I found that the RABS valve should be located on the drivers...

    Need front carpet for 97 Econoline

    What do you guys recommend? I need some new flooring for the front area. It looks like there are several online retailers selling carpet kits. Does anyone have experience replacing just the front section under the drivers and passenger seats? Thanks a lot.

    Salem Kroger conversion hubs

    I have a 97 E350 with what I assume is the stock rear end. 165mm bolt pattern. The front axle is from a 2000 F350 Superduty. 170mm bolt pattern. The conversion was done by Salem Kroger. The right front wheel bearing unit is bad and needs to be replaced. It looks like the flange on the bearing...

    Another fridge question. Top or side door?

    I thought about putting this in the van section, since that's what it will go in but thought I would try here first. I am starting to build a camper out of full size van and am looking at refrigerators. I am looking for some pros and cons of both the top door portable fridges and the built in...

    Getting close to owning a van and need help already!

    It looks like I'm really close to buying a van! A 97 E350. Long story short, I'll be flying and driving home. It only has the 2 front seats right now. I need to get a spot for a third person installed for the way home. I may have a day or 2 to mess around with it, but I would like to see if...
