It has been a while since I was living in the cininnati area but as I recall there is a serious 4x4 shop. Look in the phone book and see if any names sound...
I want to spend around $4,000. for a Ford Diesel 4x4 van. Could pay a little more if it was in really good shape. Does any one have any advise on what to...
First, they make 4x4 350 vans. I think a lot of folks go the 250 route since it seems cheaper but these days with the way weights and tow ratings go I would...
I would concur with Zack's analysis. In that price range, there WILL be issues. The question you (and I) have is can you deal with them economically. I...
Be concerned about leaks..... A water separator will do you no good if the diesel has already gelled in the tank because of water!!! I know this one first...
Aloha group, I have three 2002 Ford E-350 4x4 vans for sale. They are currently located in Hawaii. They can be shipped to the west coast rather easily. For...
Mike, I have both pitman arms in my hands. 99' - 02' 32 spline and 02' - 04' 36 spline. They are identical except for the spline count. They both do not...
Seth, I'm curious about this pitman arm info. The 86-97 Ford's take the smaler sector shaft "X" pattern pitman arm, as well as the "early" Super Duties. (up to...
Wow, got my new 86 Quadravan today,[new to me] it's a E-350,6.9 diesel, dana 60's front and rear, C-6 tranny, air, cruise, tilt, and only 22k miles. Man is it...
I'm not sure what the 80's and 90's have , but I've seen both. But the sector shaft is smaller. My 80' has a " + " pattern, not sure of the spline count. An...
I know, I know, 4x4 stuff, right? This time I have a question regarding front wheel drive. My old lady has a 93 Voyager and it has some suspension issues. So,...

Will I be able to bolt the engine, drivetrain, and suspension out of my '79 G10 into a '75 GMC Rally 6 chassis? I believe they are fundamentally the same, but...
Hi folks, I have posted this question on some of the Yahoo camper forums, but haven't gotten any knowledgeable answers. And then Mike McClure of Team Inc...
I'm not gonna be a ton (pun?) of help here, but seems to me the rear axle and springs are the key players, as you said. Check the GAWR of the rear axle...

There's been a fair amount of (somewhat heated) discussion in another forum that I frequent (Truck Campers on rv.net) about the different weight ratings ...
... Hmm, news to me! Learn something new everyday. Do you have the specs on the "high torque" version, namely axleshaft dia and spline count? Here's a...
