Today, was a red letter day I introduced my wife of ten years to the sports-mobile world of possibilities! I think she even saw that I've grown crazier the longer we've been married. We decided to order frame mount nerf bars from N-Fab in Houston as our first baby step in after market items. While our E350 is stock I'm excited to start planning bigger improvement's / changes in the months and years to come. One big step just got a little smaller for, my wife and kids.

I would love to do that to mine today but this tropical depression will not go away. Black sure is ugly with all those water stains on it.

Now you just need to convince her that every spare penny you both have needs to be fed into the van!

Cool, Since your in S.F. you could test it by emulating Steve McQueen in Bullet.

Haha. I should probably weld on tabs for the limiting straps before attempting that.

Ordered up a SPOT Trace GPS tracking device. They're not getting away with another one of my SMB's! $100 on Amazon and $10/month.

Manufacturer's link: SPOT Trace Product

Rallypanam turned me on to this thing. He has one on his dirt bike and I'm impressed by what I've seen of his travels on Google Maps.

Thanks Ben. I'm very happy with the way it turned out. You and Robb talk about Laguna?

Special thanks to Agile for the Fox shock rebuild, Carlos at Camburg, and my local shop for the install: http://www.bwservicecenter.com

Driving mine to Ujoint for a full 6" conversion on 35"'s. Chris's shop is about 10 hours from me and I scheduled to have the van there Saturday so I plan on having one last 2WD night in her somewhere along the way. Can't wait to see it finished!....
