Nice find, and interesting front bumper. Never seen that one before.

Looks like standard ARB Superduty fare. I can't remember if anyone confirmed that they bolt on to the E-series or not.

Those headlights were standard from '92-'07. The grill is an '03-'07 grill and the mirrors are '03+. The composite headlights are only standard on XLT vans and optional on others.

Re: 03 E-350 7.3 diesel 4x4

too funny. i went to school with the owner of that carlot. would have saved me a 3000 mile drive if he would have had this a year ago, lol.

my family is there and if anyone is serious and needs a tire kicker, i could send my brother in law over there to check it out.

I thought it might be an ARB, but I didn't know they had a bumper for a van, let alone seen one.

Re: 03 E-350 7.3 diesel 4x4

Talked to the guy on the phone. He is in Idaho Falls and they are
doing their own 4x4 conversions. The company is called CBI Offroad.
They are using Ford F 350 front and rear axles with a coil spring
front suspension. They are not using the Ford front trailing arms
like Quadvan and White Feather. They have designed their own
trailing arms similar to Quigley but they have heim joints on the ends.
He sent me a picture, the arms look mighty short to me but I'm
not a 4x4 designer. He says they are going to do 8 vans.
