Yeah my rear bumper is super beefed up since I broke it. Going to add in some other supports to make it better though. I'm sure a side collision could break the mount. So its not that great. But it wont get ripped off from rear again lol. Funny thing about my rear though, I measured and had all measurements good.. then at last minute decided to step up to a thicker metal and it through off my measurements, so it order to get it to attach to truck I had to sledge hammer it a bunch.
I am thinking of doing some reinforcing on my front bumper too. I need to remove it and add a brace for the front step plate thingy.. and i'm going to throw some holes for some shackle kind of things on the front. And I was also considering cutting a hole for some lights to mount in the front bumper. I don't know. I have some plans to make the front bumper better.
Eh hem. Is it done yet?

Yea..... but i get all warm and fuzzy inside when i know that MY f250 pulled out THEIR f350s. or maybe its just because i was sitting too close to the exhaust pipe, and smellin them sweet diesel fumes while chaining up.......

I love this van! Its bad a**. I've been keeping my eyes peeled for an older van like this to double as a tow rig and a place to sleep, and ill probly copy your axle upgrades! You use this to haul the wheeler?

YES A VAN!!! Its not like I will see a similar vehicle runnin down the road.... Plus I got it for $75. and built most of it with parts I had layin around.

Well, when it was just a 2 wheel drive I used it to pull my car trailer a lot, but after I put the 4 wheel drive it had 3.50s in it, n was a turd, so I have been usin my Dads pickup to haul the wheeler. If its just little stuff like cars I need to haul I've been usin my Crown Vic, with a equalizer hitch. Lol. This past weekend I put 4.10s back in it(well the rear anyways, havnt had time to do the front) so I was thinkin of seein how it pulls again soon.... It only has a tinny 302 in it, I swapped a NP435 into it witch made a huge difference. Only bigger motor that will fit in the dog house without cuttin the hole bigger is a 351W. So that kind sucks.....

but i give him points for originality and effort, it looks cool and i admire the work put into it but i personally think vans in general look funny, they look like pick ups with toppers that got run really fast into a solid wall...i dont know its just not right...like cab over (COE) big trucks, its just not right in my eyes...i hate driving them too
