Who needs a 4WD van when THIS is an option?

In this video, I'm gonna go over how I turned my stock Ford Econoline E250 van into an off-road beast! We head to Stanceworks and install a Weldtech Designs 5" Baja Grocery Getter lift kit, 4.56 gears, a Powertrax locker and 35" BFGoodrich K02's!

I did the same thing with my 2012 Ford E-350, 12-passenger shuttle bus. Added the six inch Weldtech lift. I'm converting it into an RV but I wanted the clearance for the gray water tank and the frame mounted rear AC compressor/condenser. I added some Falken off road tires including the dually wheels. It looks really wicked. The bus manufacturer is Turtle Top so the shuttle lines are very curved and smooth. With custom welded off road bumpers and my custom spare mount on the rear bumper and a cool looking desert tan and black paint job and all chrome removed it just looks the part. It's now known as the apocalypse vehicle by the shop I took it to get my drive line balanced. Overall, it's a great lift kit. I did go with the Eaton 8000 lb rear springs in order to carry the weight of 75 gallons of fresh water, 400 lbs of lithium phospate batteries and another 150 lbs of fuel with the 55 gallon fuel tank I just got for it.

[@ceeceety2320]

This is exactly what I want to do with my van. I didn't want to go through all the trouble of installing 4 wheel drive and THIS will do the trick! You have a great channel going here! Thanks for going to the trouble of making these videos! You're a few steps ahead of me which is good for me because I get all the info and get to see how bad ass the van looks and mine will look hopefully sooner than later. It all costs so much money but I don't have to tell you that. I appreciate you! You're the guy my wife was telling me about when you got the hi-top. I can't wait! I actually already put a 900 watt solar rack on top but that can be raised when the time comes. I put my fantastic fan in one of the back windows and an air conditioner in the other. It turned out great! We want comfort. Some people might think it looks strange but we're happy with it.

[@brakeforsnakes]

That’s so rad and much appreciated!!

Van looks great! In regards to your comment at the end of the video, I struggled a lot with staying present while making videos. I've been taking a hiatus from filming because of it. Its a tough one but I'm sure you'll figure out a good balance.

Yea it's been a balance already. I raced at sea otter last week and planned on filming a whole vlog but ended up not filming anything lol.

[@designbyjohnperez]

I used to motovlog my rides (motorcycle) but gave it up as producing videos take up a lot of time and the main reason was that it was taking away the enjoyment and being present while riding.

I like this video- it gets right to the point. Makes me look at vans in a whole new way

[@tomowens2720]

I'm a fan of 4wd Ford F250 short WB vans. Yours looks good after all the mods. Shy of having 4wd on it perhaps you're already thinking winch(s). We're it me I'd back myself up with a 12klb front winch & a 5-6klb rear winch. Both with synthetic cable & donut snatch blocks. Unless you're out in the salt flats, this combo with your current mods could help you recover yourself anywhere else.

[@amorton94]

Why not just one winch on a hitch mount? Then you can just move it around.

For filming, install a couple cameras where you normally are and have them wired so a flip of the switch and you’re filming. That way you can just be driving, sitting in the bench on your front porch, sitting at your desk or frying bacon, reach over and flip the switch and just start talking….. worry about editing later when you get a chance and have down time.

[@robthewaywardwoodworker9956]

Very cool. Always wanted a 4x4 van. Don't know why, just dig the style.

[@brakeforsnakes]

This is 2wd!

[@jamesgill5511]

The biggest advantage to 4WD over 2WD with a locker is in off camber situations on slick ground. With a normal(open diff) 4x4 you've got one tire on each end trying to move the vehicle forward while the other two provide some lateral traction. If one tire on a locked axle spins faster than the vehicle is moving, they opposite tire does as well. Just like drifting or doing donuts, if both tires are spinning faster than the vehicle is moving you have little lateral traction. I also don't mean anything extreme when I say "off camber". Snow covered or icy roads with a prominent crown can easily cause the back end of a vehicle with a limited slip/locker to drift towards the curb. This is why I'm a big proponent of selectable lockers even on 4x4's. It's not at all hard to find videos right here on YT of locker equipped 4x4's sliding sideways on hills covered in snow or mud.

[@amorton94]

This looks awesome! I was out of town a couple weeks ago and missed out on a older 4x4 Econoline for $1000. I want a 4x4 van bad. Still kicking myself that I missed out on that. Though, they probably already got a dozen messages by the time I saw it. One of these days. I just can't decide on what and when to buy.

[@KollynJ]

Great video. Better suspension with better dampening, articulation and ground clearance is better but it is not a substitute for 4wd.

[@brakeforsnakes]

Sorry but I just don't believe you do 105 in an econoline lol. I've owned 3 of these vans both 4x4 and 2wd, stock and lifted and there's just no way you were comfortably cruising at 105 in one. Although being a nascar fan you may just have a different idea of what's safe and whats not safe.

[@chadlowery1098]

I’m currently trying to decide whether to do 4WD using UJOINT Off-road components or 2WD with a selectable rear locker using WeldTec 5” components. I’d like to hear your thought process that led to your decision.

snow, mud and the northwest is why you'd want 4wd instead of a tall van with good tires and suspension. I drove a lifted rwd econoline all over the pnw and it was always sideways, real scary... lifted sienna awd is amazingly better and is funner to drive imo...

I installed it and he welded it it, if there's anymore questions click the link in my bio to the weldtech site they have all the info you need right there. If you pay $3-5000 to get this installed you are getting ripped off. You do not NEED longer brake lines or abs lines but longer brake lines aren't a bad idea.

What no test drive to show us the van??? Ill overlook the extreme pain you caused if you post a Test drive video of how the van drives now, shifts steers and off roads on dirt trails or gravel roads.
