I have posted here before, my previous van was a 95 EXT, that I did a homebrew drop on. This Friday I bought my wife a 2000 America Vans Conversion van.
So far I enjoy this van more than the 95, the interior is awsome. So far I have debadged the back door, and removed the 3 gold pinstripes that encircled the van. I do plan on a 2-3 drop, but this go around I'll buy the kit. It needs tires so I'm thinking of 245/60 up front and 255/60 in back.
84 GMC Sierra: static drop, airbagged, now on jack stands.
95 Nissan truck: Cranked torsion bars 3" lowering blocks.
00 Astro: America Vans Conversion. Debadged, otherwise stock.
71 Chevy C-10: Ogre the Ocher truck. Work in progress.

1986 Safari 2.5L 4 speed manual - scrapped
1995 Astro 2WD conversion 4.11 posi, shift kit, DHC rock rails - sold to Skippy
1998 Astro 4x4 D44, D60, NP231, full hydraulic system with 9k# Milemarker winch and snow plow - sold to Lockdoc
2003 Astro AWD all stock - traded for a 3/4 ton truck
2005 AWD, 4.10's - sold to skippy
Yeah no rust. I bought it off a used car lot, they had just got it in that week. The car lot didnt have time to detail it before I bought it.
We are back in a van because we are expecting another child, funny thing is when I was cleaing out the interior I found a HotWheels, and a clean diaper. So it's already baby ready.
I'm having no luck finding a drop kit, that's affordable. I'm thinkig to keep costs down I'll use dropped coils up front.
