We’ve recently featured several overland-ready E-350 4×4 vans, including this 2006 4×4 6.0-liter Diesel and a 2012 RB Baja Rig. Ford E-Series vans are a popular choice for vehicle travel due to their dependable engines and drivetrains, readily available 4×4 conversions (from Quigley 4×4 and Quadvan), and accessibility of OEM and aftermarket parts. If you’re still not convinced, check out Daniela Wagner’s article on Overlanding Africa’s West Coast in an E-350 4×4. Today’s low-mileage (61,000 miles) example showcases a Salem Kroger 4×4 conversion, extended body, new paint job, and a number of tasteful modifications.
From the Seller:
“A hard to find Ford E-350 4×4 van with the 7.3 diesel and only 61,000 miles. I’m thinking it may be one of the lowest 7.3-liter 4×4 vans in the country. Fleet maintained, so it runs, shifts, and brakes perfectly. Zero mechanical issues.”
2003 Ford E-350 4×4 7.3 Diesel
Fitted with the legendary 7.3-liter Power Stroke diesel, which produces 215 horsepower, 425 pound-feet of torque, and well-maintained is capable of 1,000,000 plus miles. The interior is by no means luxurious, but it does offer power windows and locks, air conditioning, captain chairs, and cruise control.
Based in California, Salem Kroger 4×4 provides an alternative to the Quigley 4×4 E-Series conversion. The work similarly utilizes Ford parts, but incorporates some interesting differences. One particular highlight is a hub locking switch offered by Salem, which is more convenient than the manual locking hubs fitted by Quigley. However, the company website is no longer active, so I’m assuming they’re not operational at present.
