Wow I thought I loved vans. I had a 87 toyota 4x van years back when I lived in the sierra's. It was cool my main problem with it was how the windows didn't go down all the way leaving no room for my arm to rest comfortably. Order 2x3 body blocks,and a procomp 2.5 inch add a leafs from summit. get y...

My 99 does the same thing on the highway with cross winds. It sounds like it comes from under the van. maybe the void created by the lift blocks between the body and frame is the cause. my arb awning also has it's own noise at highway speed so it get's a bit loud at 75 .

thanks AP. Weight is a issue for torsion bars. that's why I didn't fab up a beefier bumper from scratch. my bumper and brush guard weighs around 70-75 lbs that's way less then a plate steel warn style bumper. in my opinion that's about all the weight these van's should handle on a daily bases. Add a...

I got my brush guard at the swap meet for $60 it's off a 93 suburban it's called the rancher and is made by Go industries here in the U.S.A. It came with the o.g mounting hardware which I adapted to fit my custom bumper. First I'll explain the custom bumper. I used my original bumper and another one...

I defiantly will. I only have some basic pictures of it but will do my best to explain how I did it.

My favorite picture of the family van.

it's desolate out there for sure. My Dad and Grandad started taking me out there in the 70's and 80's we would make there caps stones for jewelry they made. lots of great minerals to gather but you have to earn it. Did you go on Havasu lake road?. Did you cross into AZ and go out Alamo lake road int...

yes 1289. Sweet looked familiar. I go out rock hunting from time to time out in the turtles. I've been collecting Opalite and different types of agate out there since I was a kid. Every thing from Amboy east is amazing if you take the time to explore it. Thanks for the extra photo of the Turtles.

Thanks. I live in granite dells 6 miles north of Prescott about 65 road mile sw of Flag. Cooper discoverer's. They are alright for cheap tires. The van needed tires when I bought it, and a trans. I knew I was going to lift it but wasn't sure how much. I did the body lift and add a leafs, and got the...

Is the third from last photo the west side of the turtle mountain's ?

Hey I'm a new guy from northern AZ. Glad to see I'm not the only one who see's the capability of these vans. Here's my van. 4" of lift 235's, suburban brush guard, homemade rack with arb awning. This picture was taken while I had the awning out to make sure we had all the stakes and cord prior ...
