UJOR Build Thread

The top shelf of the kitchen area can be hard to reach but all I have up there are pots & pans or bulky items that I don't use often. Everything else is easy to reach, the other side is the bathroom and storage.

Stage2 D60 with RSC upgrade ready to ship to CO

V7 is due for maintenance. Oil, tire rotation, general check up. Have to keep the demo rig/baby hauler in tip top shape!

I passed a relatively clean OBS Ford this afternoon and thought about your build. If they just had a better choice of powerplants in them, I might have to build one.

Ecoboost 2.7 swap anyone?

Quite a few updates, I've been slacking. RB rack for the SoCal 6.0. Lights will be here next week and we'll wire it up before install

Front end is getting our FB001 bumper, Warn VR12000 with Synthetic line, sPOD, 30" Rigid light bar

Unloaded the Sherpa today, I get a lot of questions on how we load/unload it. Pump up the bags, jack it up from the rear axle, slide the stands under the crossbars, lower V4 and drive away.

Class C got a booty lift today

Didn't V4 have an Xp camper at one point? What happened with that?

Ahahaha

He could tell us about it but the mods would delete it anyway.

On a lighter note, I'll share a couple progress report pics on my rig.

6" ujoint with progressive front springs, stage 2 rsc with 4.56 gears and ARB, dynatrac hubs, fox 2.0 reservoir shocks with adjustable compression dampening. UJOR fuel tank and rear skid.... Still some loose ends to tie up but I had to share.

Yea it had an XP for 6 mo back in 2012. Much happier with the current setup for this time of my life.

Brian the van looks epic! Damn thats a looker! Excellent job gentleman.

10 years ago Vanaconda went to SEMA. Was such a big deal for me! And guess who was parked right behind me? No other than the founder of this website Scott Brady! A lot has changed in these 10 years, UJOR wasn't even a thought at this point. Grateful that I still get to play with vans.

Yep I met up with Scott a few days ago for breakfast and he was talking about that as well when I told him of my new build! Looking forward to ujointifying my new van! Driving it back to Denver this weekend!

Excellent! You're on my list!

I'm sure this has been asked and told more than a couple times. I need to know what the total height is on an E350 with a ujoint 6" on 35's. I'm planning on building a new house and garage so I need to know how tall the overhead door should be. This puts my van conversion on hold but at least in the end I will be able to do the build inside instead of in my driveway!

It will fit under an 8' door.
