Just wanted do give an update since its been a few months and a few K miles.

Absolutely loving the lift still. I got in contact with Jeremy again about the rear seeming a little bit lower when I was loaded up with my climbing and camping gear. I went down to the shop and he swapped out my rear springs. The van sits PERFECT now. He told me that what I have installed now will be what all the EB vans will get; good news.

I went on some moderate truck trails and the van got me exactly where I wanted to be without issues.

In the shop-


Bad fuel pump, but looking sharp.


Living that EB life-


Awesome front-

DerPo - if you don't mind measuring something for me. What is the height from the floor to the bottom of the pinch weld right behind the rear tire?

Thanks!

The front end on this van is absolutely the best looking setup I have seen on a Sportsmobile. So clean, everything you need, nothing you don't.

Thanks for that wonderful compliment!

The front bumper is a Weldtch designs Undercover 5-0 bumper with a wireless 12k winch.

Choosing a bumper was so hard. I like aluminess but I think it's a little bulky looking from some angles, and the price point was a little steep....
