Van Life: How to do a 4×4 conversion in just 10 simple steps!
In this episode, we show you how to convert a regular 2WD van into a lifted 4WD Overlanding BEAST! The majority of the parts came from an F350 pickup truck and the rest from Ujoint Offroad. We live in the van full time so we did this conversion in just 4 days while sleeping in the van on the lift overnight inside of the shop.
Here’s the specs: 2006 Ford E350, 6.0 Powerstroke Turbo Diesel engine, Dana 60 axles w/ 4:10 Gears, 5R110 Auto Transmission, NV271 T-Case, and 20” Rims with 35” Toyo All-Terrain tires.

Nice!!!!!
Wild!
Can you conver a 99 express
Bro. Salud!
GREAT JOB.. CAME OUT SLICK!!!!
I have an ’06 and just enough cash to do this. Dangerous position to be in.
AWESOME 👌
what was the total cost of this kit plus garage?
Sweet van, wish I could drop that kind of money. My van is just a money pit, barely goes down the road straight.
Damn that was awesome
Good luck
Respect!
Amazing
That took some serious work .
As any real man knows the very first step in any build a house a car heck rebuilding a transmission the very first step is get rid of all skankage. Once the nasty skank is rid of things go so much smoother. mgtow power baby! And remember if you’re completely cucked and you just have to have a place to drop your load will remember you can always do that with a professional and they’re much cleaner anyway think about it were you required to wear protection the first time you loaded the one you’re with? You know you didn’t all you men out there you know you didn’t believe me you were not her first load but when you go to a true pro what’s the first thing they make you do? That’s right you have to protect yourself so the load isn’t inadvertently transferred somewhere it’s not supposed to be. Think about it cleaner more enjoyable less nagging and freedom.
Blessed anyone think I’m being vulgar I am not I just have my own terms:
Skankage=Gasoline tanks
Load=Cargo
Nasty=Dirty, in need of cleaning or replacement.
Skank=SKID plate and GAS tank combo
I am totally impressed with Gypsy tribe. I thought you bought the van pre-existing with the four-wheel drive I did not know you put it on yourself. Way cool great job
I have a 2005 Ford E350 short bus I want to make 4×4. How much was that conversion kit?
i have a 78 ford van i was wanting to know what kit i would need to make it 4×4,
Wow… I’m currently working on mine.if you read my msg can you share the pitmam arm Info pls…. I never thought I will have to relocate the Oil filter… nice job!✌
Hi, Now are you enjoying the 4×4 conversion? Have you experienced any problems with it? Thanks John.
Hey how much did it cost you. And where did you get your parts. I’m gonna be doing my van myself I already have a lot of parts from a f350. It I need the mounts for frame
I like your video.
great music for your video
Why drill? why not just weld on the front leaf spring brackets?
Got an ’04 with a 5.4L I want to convert. I have many questions. Where can I get the front spring mounts for the front springs? Where do I get a template for knowing where to cut and weld in the rear of the front springs?
can this be done to a Mitsubishi fuso or Isuzu NPR (cabover box trucks)???? if so, where can I get more info? or a general cost to have it done.
GREAT channel. You’ve got a supporter here for sure 😉
Bad ass !
Where do you buy the conversion parts? My friend gave me a one ton super-duty front axle,now to buy that Ford ambulance sitting down the street!
Love this I been to Death Valley in an RV, needs everything bottle of cold water and a freeze, very hot daytime very cold night time.
man you made that look so easy, nice one, could probably do that for people and make some money
Can I have a list of all the parts
My kind of people doing my kind of stuff. Cool.
Nice build Dude…(& Dudette)
That was dope.
besides the van how much did the overall conversion cost you?
I’ve watched this video 10 times already and I can’t have enough, impressive, absolutely impressive, lots of things to admire, great job guys
What an awesome couple bro..!
These two will tackle anything..!
Talk about an UP-GRADE 😲😳
Who sells the kit?
That is so fucking cool! I have a jumbo Ford transit, would love to jack it up like this.
That was really great, I love your video, and would love to convert my 2500 chevy van ,but no company will sell me the kit, where do I get the parts I need ?? As a certified mechanic, I am more than capable of doing the work myself.
Hello everyone!!! Make sure to leave us any questions you have about the conversion here in the comments! And if you would like to see more build and how to videos please let us know what part you’d like to see next! Thanks for watching!
