Hey Y'all!
I wanted to throw my hat in here for the fun of it and to hopefully also make use of all the incredible information being shared on here.
We just purchased an 07 ford e350 super duty xlt extended van with 69K miles on it. Full tow package and RSC advancetrack thingy...
So far the upgrades are as follows:
-Passenger bench removed and swapped for 3 person bench that folds into a bed
-Mounting and install for 2 dirtbike wheel chocs in line with the 3 tie down anchors also installed
-Added removable/washable liner for transporting dirtbikes and desert toys (we are still trying to preserve the nice carpet that's already in there so we are just laying that liner on top of it for now)
-DVD/CD/Radio touchscreen unit (van came with AM/FM only - no Aux port HA!)
-1-Way visibility vinyl for rear most windows - just a cheap alternative to tint for the time being, I'm very interested in the durability of this product as well and I like the limited visibility form the outside of the van
-Lightly fabricated 60"x80"x14" folding/collapsing metal bed frame paired with trifold queen size mattress that folds down to 12"x30"x60" *The really cool thing is the kids bench when folded down is about 18" high off the ground, the same height as our bed once the mattress pad is added so the 2 beds basically but right up against eachother for one huge sleeper! it will be cool while the girls are still little for sure
Thats all for now...I have SO MANY things I want to do but the main thing im focusing on will be a roof rack of some sort, a leveling kit and some bigger AT tires for her.
It seems like leveling these big vans can be a bit tricky and would love to get some feedback from anyone on experience with this, especially involving the e350 with the RCS feature...
I was looking through some forums and found a discussion with this combination of parts:
level kit https://fordpartsone.com/products/e250-e350-2wd-suspension-lift-kit-2-inch?variant=10590310662259
bigger coils https://www.amazon.com/Moog-CC880-Coil-Spring-Set/dp/B000C59UYU
longer front shocks to the front https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00DRYOJN0/ref=ox_sc_saved_title_6?smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER&psc=1
I am anticipating about $1200 for a good tire/rim combo locally and hopefully I can get something in exchange for the good condition stock set that are on there now.
Has anyone run this leveling kit on their van? can you please let me know if it had any negative affect on the RSC sensors or advancetrack feature?
This is our first van and we are beyond stoked! ive only just run it to the racetrack a couple times with both bikes and all the gear so far its been just awesome! we cant wait for the first camping trip.
Here are some pics - thank you in advance for anyone willing to take the time to share and interact with the new guy haha!
