    Proper Pitman Arm for 2000 Ford E350 Quigley

    In defense of Quigley. ..I have a 2003 cutaway here and they were super helpful. My front axle is from an Excursion and rear is a Dana 70...10.5 gvw.

    Ambo expedition build - planning stage

    Hello. Nice rig. I would make sure your box isn't CRAZY heavy. I saw one from a swat vehicle in a scrap yard that must a been filled with sand or concrete in the body cavities. Likely not, but I'd check. For me I am not "pre-running" my Quigleys....so they are fine as they are. I just need 4x4...

    And now the moment you didn't know you've been waiting for...Atl-Atl's 4x4 Ford E350 RV documentation thread!!

    I didn't look thru all the pages. .. But first thing I would do is get some "g series" full steel cases tires on that thing. LT tires in 16"...MAKE me nervous. It may be light but TALL. Full steel cased are stiff and run at high pressure . I generally convert to railroad 19.5" rims if you can...

    1995 E-350 7.3 Quigley. Needs engine pulled and diagnosed. I was fully committed to doing this (#3 cylinder has no compression)

    Not in bad shape. Frame needs cleaned and fluid filmed. I am only asking what I have in it. This was a "place holder" in case a van i had been seeking for the last 3-4 years got away from me. I did start driving this 95 home before she just died on me (lost injector oil) and just stopped...

    Rickson wheel alternative

    So I found a REALLY small company in Michigan called Red Barn Customs. Guy seems like he can build just about any rim you want with ALL sorts of options. I will likely be going with him once I gather up soem funds and vehicles are on the road. I will run 19.5" rail rims for now, but at some...

    Rickson wheel alternative

    I am trying to find a reasonably affordable ($500 each) alternative to all the crazy big run flat options. I have a 1995 E350 7.3 dually 4x4 Quigley cut away that I have singled out to 19.5" rail rims. Those are ok, but I'd REALLY like to find a flat steelie, that could run 20" BFG that could be...

    19.5 RailRoad steel rims to single out a dually 8 on 170mm $750 for all.

    I am in Greensburg Pa. I ran these on my 2002 F350 for many years. I kept them when I sold it and now I am ready to part with them. 5 units (one for a spare). This how you can create less drag, better mileage, and get the tires to track in the same path. I love the durability of the 19.5. I am...

    e450 7.3 Diesel vs v10 vs wait 10 years for 7.3 gas cutaway as a base for custom camper box

    I have a fleet of 5.4, v10 , and powerstroke and IDIs here. 1991-2014. I absolutely love the quiet power and efficiency of the 2014 v10. The 5r110w is outstanding. It gets same mileage as 5.4 over the road (summer mix) 12-14.5 mpg. I would NEVER want a 7.3 PSD under a dog box clanking away...

    Pre-1991 Ford 4x4 conversion???

    I have a 91 Quigley here and just spied a 91 Pathfinder at a local junk yard (body rotted out)...the Pathfinder had REALLY nice, long arms.. WAY more than my Quigley. They almost look factory pre 1980 F150 ..perhaps longer. Just wanted to post this for posterity sake. Even had a whole new set...

    Real World Gas Mileage in a Quigley E350 V10??????

    This is a graveyard topic over 7 years old. BUT, still poinyent. Thanks to everyone for their input. Worth mentioning E Series a never had the 3 valve 5.4 or v10...always 2 valve. Looking at a v10 vs 5.4 ...I have had 7.3 in trucks....good engine, just fuel is 15-20% more and mileage doesn't...
