What size lift and tire is this??

I found some images of a Quigley van that I LOVE the stance of. I am considering a lift and wheel/tire change to my 2wd diesel ClubWagon. If I can figure out what the lift height is on the van shown as well as tire and wheel size, I'll be a lot closer to making a decision. Love the CLEAN look of this van.

Wish I could do a 4x4 conversion but it's just not in the budget, and far from being in my budget.

Check out actionvansuspension.com and camburg.com. Action van has quite a few pics on their website. Both companies are located in socal/orange county, so they arent too far from you. I'm thinking about getting the Action Van installed soon.

Also, I read your other thread about the noise level after you changed your exhaust. You should note that larger tires with a more aggressive tread pattern compared to street tires is going to create more noise as well.

Re: What size lift and tire is this??

mikracer - ActionVan is one I am definitely looking at. I am also considering doing a UJoint conversion in steps. So I'd do the front axle and lift first, then move forward with tcase, trans work, etc as budget allows. I just worry that my budget will never really allow for that. Haha!

Road noise is a concern of mine with a lift, but I am not looking at doing super aggressive tires. What I am thinking is a 4" lift with Goodyear Wranger All Terrain Adventure with Kevlar in 285/85/16. Not looking to do much rock crawling or heavy offroad. More for snowy conditions and light off road trailhead access. I think those tires fit the bill pretty well from what I've read.

I'm going to keep looking for parts to source locally, as I really WANT to go the UJoint route. Just don't know if I CAN. Finding local parts (mainly the axle) will help me out big time.

Contact the seller and see if you can get the VIN, then call Quigley with that VIN. They'll tell you everything exactly.
