I will be adding more lift to the van!

And HOPE with 10,000 lbs of materials, and gear it doesn't hit the tire! LOL.. if so then it needs low profile tires for the rears anyway!

It will defiantly make some noise in the front cabin anyway! The way I have it planned you won't hear/see, or even feel vibrations coming from behind the Bpillar.. It would be sooo much fun to do some bassrace in here..

looking good curt, I am looking forward to see this thing in action again.

It seemed like somewhat of a waste to not have the cage built farther back..

them wheel wells are def the right way to go. I had done that to that blazer I gave to

Don, but was a waste in the end. This thing will be super strong if is built the way your

describing. good job!

Who is this guy?!

lol. milk crate it up fior a week!! this van is little different than my "daily driver" explorer was.. lol. i'm pretty sure thisvan can no longer be safetied for road useage..

looks like street class will be best choice for me this year. Need a cheap reliable, 50mpg vehicle to fit the budget of driving 10+ hours to each show. lol
