Astro V8 5 speed
Hey guys! Haven't been on in forever! But that's doesn't mean I've lost the Astro bug. I got a wild hair and stumbled on a 1988 v6 5 speed Astro and had to have it. Then proceeded to install a V8. Hope these pictures load properly. https://scontent-ord1-1.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-xft1/v/t1.0-9/fr/cp0/e1...

Re: To the faithful........what can I say??.
I got a snow bear plow today for the 93 astro I got off bill 3 or 4 years ago. I haven't really driven it for over a year. Thought I would stop in and see what was going on here. I was surprised to see the home page so small. Ever since I wrecked my 02 work astro, I went bigger with an AWD express. ...

Re: Can a OLV 2" Lift contribute to X-fer case binding?
Speed sensors in transfer case. They don't go bad that often though. Apparently they had a repair kit. On my 2002 it included new sensors and and new plug. The plug was solidered and heat shrunk. My van had 320,000 before they were replaced. I've also got a 2 inch lift. My shop installed some used s...

Re: did they make these things?
Yep, they were an option! If the rear glass is tinted, it was probably someone being creative. But if it's clear glass, it was most likely a United States Postal Truck. USPS was for awhile running cargo shorty stros with dutch doors. I talked to a guy that had one and asked if he did it himself and ...
