No Power steering or brakes

Re: Van of the month - nominations wanted
Congrats on being Van of The Month, Sundance. Your van is beautifully built, fer sure. The fact that you greased Justice and AstroZam with thousands in black-market currency just to be the Van of The Month is nobody's business, to be sure. You can depend on me to keep my mouth shut, 'cause that's n...

Re: What's after Safari/Astro vans???
Yep heard of Quigley, had a friend who had a G30 Chevyvan converted by them, lots of plans to customise it until some low life ripped it off one night, never to be seen again. Also Pathfinder conversions too, County did similar conversions on Ford vans & trucks. As I said not sure about who does...

Re: What's after Safari/Astro vans???
OK now offence intended, lets see if I can dig myself out of this. What I meant was that from what I have been told the AWD on the transit is just that "All Wheel Drive" intended to give better road holding and grip in poor on road conditions. It is not designed to take on the likes of Toy...

Re: What's after Safari/Astro vans???
Hi from the UK, I really thought I was on a f*rd forum with all the transit talk going on. Take it from me the new transits can do just the same speeds as our astrosafaris, albeit sucking diesel rather that gasoline.
