    2003 E-350 MG Metal Works conversion, VSS, Abbott ERA

    Closing the loop on this topic. I reversed the wiring of the ERA. The above wiring is incorrect. The blue & white need to be reversed from whats explained above.

    2003 E-350 MG Metal Works conversion, VSS, Abbott ERA

    Getting back on track here. MG confirmed that the Abbott ERA does in fact get wired in line. The white wire goes to the VSS and the blue wire goes to the ECM. Problem solved, big thanks to everyone! Hopefully this will help some people out in the future as I have spent a ton of time on...

    2003 E-350 MG Metal Works conversion, VSS, Abbott ERA

    I think its a win for everyone when sales are up, and competition drives innovation. I don't doubt what you're saying one bit, I'm sure it was extremely frustrating to fix problems that weren't originated from your parts. My above question was rhetorical. It's your company, you don't need to...

    2003 E-350 MG Metal Works conversion, VSS, Abbott ERA

    So I bought a full set of OEM service manualsand had time to dive into them tonight. Before reading the manual, I assumed that the wires were wired separately, but after showing the schematic to a buddy who is an electrical engineer, he thinks the ERA is supposed to be wired inline with the...

    2003 E-350 MG Metal Works conversion, VSS, Abbott ERA

    I did call Abbott. They are not familiar enough with the wiring (Ford specific wiring since these are used in many different applications) to say either way. They did inform me that the ERA must be placed inside an area well protected from the elements though.

    2003 E-350 MG Metal Works conversion, VSS, Abbott ERA

    I have nothing against Chris, we've talked a few times in the past and he used to be pretty informative, but he has chosen to only sell select items to people that don't buy his current conversion kit. That's fine, it's his company, but consumers also have the choice on who/where to support...

    All it really takes is a few interactions with you to know that you'd accomplish this. Congrats! I stand by the quote I sent you, "Opportunity is missed by most people because it is dressed in overalls and looks like work." Thomas Edison

    FOUND Vans For Sale!

    WTH! I did not see this coming. BTW, the wheels I ordered are going to take a little while to get here (Like four months), so I got on CL and started looking for Super Duty wheels. Found a set identical to yours and picked them up. I asked the guy how long he has been trying to sell them...

    The not-so-definitive guide to Sienna seats

    I would J, but I don't need any more seats. The quote I posted was a from Back Country Pursuit, with my answer to him below. I lucked out and bought four of the new style Sienna seats with the black bases for my van before the supply dried up. I've got the oem front van seats sitting in the...

    Outstanding build with top notch components, I'm loving every post. I'm curious if you did a pro/con list against starting with a Stewart & Stevenson/Brazo's truck vs the NPR? I ask because I'm keenly interested in the S&S truck, Cat engine, Allsion trans, CTIS as a complete package off the...

    MG Metalworks Radius Arm/Coil Spring Axle Conversion for E-series Vans

    I think the prices that Back Country Pursuit has listed for his axle are accurate and current, especially taking into consideration the price differences between the pre/post 2013's. I too have an MG front kit and I've seen front axle prices all over the place, however when you start talking to...

    Van Makeover - Vantasi

    The exterior mounted L track is beautifully simple. Depending on mounting distance you could hang everything from a surfboard to a clothes line. Well done.
