Obviously a bodylift, I'm guessing you have a floor drop further than the 4" requiring it, so you use a power wheelchair, I'd love to get just 4", but I'm not paying $5000 for it when not necessary, my case doesn't require it. I'm looking to get the Ricon s2000 lift given to me, up on a pallet to check and see that it functions correctly, so I can swap out the old Crow River folding platform out. I really don't want to replace all the contact switches and get the frame welded back up, but other than that, it works, bad switch requires me to whack the base with a hammer once in a while. I hate the power hogging old screw lifts, want to go elec/hydraulic, van sits so high being a one ton, not all lifts are capable of touching the ground.

I love the body on that van, looks like it would make a great expo rig. How do you have the interior outfitted?

Was full when I was working contract assignments.
This picture was taken when I swung by the family cabin, and long before the wheel mods, somewhere in time I twisted the sidewall belts and so new bigger & better sneakers were put on the list.

Its empty back there as my daily commuter now that I have a permanent job.
I have a vise now to clamp the dirt bike into.
And a spare tire back there.

My newly acquired one, still trying to hammer out the possibility of setting it on a 78 F-150 front axle, it looks like a direct fit.

I gotta pickup a 78 F-150 axle and get it under the front, but waiting on the weather to clear up.
