Is that the $350 2-3" Boulder OffRoad Lift? How much did you pay for install? Just got a van and really appreciate the posts, your van looks sharp!

It is the Boulder Offroad lift and I had Chris at Colorado Camper vans install it. I forget the price though. I had the heater installed at the same time. I'm taking it up to the NW this week for a few weeks and hope to hit up Vancouver Island, Revelstoke, and Banff.

Can you give us the name of the manufacture of the propane tank? I like It.... Thanks Mr.Natcho
Sorry, just got back. It's tucked up there pretty good but I can see that the tank says Manchester tank. My guess is it 10lbs, but I'm not sure. Heater did great in Canada. It got pretty cold some nights so I used it quite a bit. I topped off the tank after about a week and it was maybe half gone.

That is the ~price I remember paying for our BOR "2" lift...which actually ended up being closer to "3". I had a local shop install mine, it took him a couple hours of labor. YMMV. We luv the lift on ours. Also allowed for larger tire size as NYCO stated. The van no longer looks like it has training-tires on : )

Great pic's........................Glad to see the Van in action.

We have been using that same fridge for a few years, I thought it was to small but it can hold everything you need.........

Great van! I was impressed with those panels when GM first introduced them. Don't think they wowed the contractor crowd like GM hoped they look awesome for a campervan.

Great looking van! With the the BOR leveling kit, did you also change out the shocks?
I have a 2004 Savanna 2500 2WD
Also, anyone out there able to find fender flares?

I did get new shocks when I had it done. When I bought the van it had about 140,000 miles on it and they were ready for a change. I got KYB shocks which I don't know much about, but they were a more affordable option as I already had spent some money on the heater, propane tank, lift, etc.
