What a fantastic dilemma to have, and a great community to help you make your choice easier... or more difficult!

I think we'll all be looking forward to the reports on your additional research and comparisons!

Way to go Larrie, congratulations! A great idea considering some of the weather we've had the last few years and the trips you like to go on. Heck of a lot of piece of mind having 4x4.

Ah, you’re gonna love it! I sure enjoyed the heck out of my road trip to San Diego last March. Great time of year and so much to see! Congratulations on the decision!

Larrie, curious why you hadn't listed UJOR(UJoint) as an option. Or were you looking for only a few inches of lift and thus had ruled out Expovans and UJOR?

You are correct. My delightful wife has enough trouble getting in the stock van. She would not like a tall lift. The 4” will be hard enough for her. May have to build her an add on step for the running board as it is.

Just caught wind of this Larrie. Why didn't you do it 5 years ago when I owned the van?


You're going to love it. Congrats. May as well hit Baja after you pick it up. You'll be right there!

Ah ok, so that rules out Expovans and UJOR, makes sense.
