Either one of these guys can help you with your van.

Agile Off-Road

4x4 Van Conversion kits

These are the two leading van 4x4 shops in the country. It all depends on what you want to do. Start a build thread on your van. I'd like to follow it. Let me know if you have any questions.

If it's an E-something, it's a van in my book. In my opinion, there's nothing better than 7.3L E-350 van with a custom bed on it to get the job done. As far as I'm concerned, the only thing cooler than the hauler is what he hauls with it...

I have/am using a Co. 2012 E250 cargo van as a carpenter for a national restoration company here in Vancouver.
It's done me well, after getting used to it after using a GMC Safari...(which I really liked..). - But, it's the Co. van..so it works for me... (once I get the alignment right...Again..)..!
