Congrats on the sale!

What kinda gear are you looking to get rid of?

I already got rid of it. Some of it I gave to the new owners. The rest I took to Deseret Industries thrift store. It's only condo camping from here on out.

Well, then definitely don't tell me what I missed out on.

Congrats again on the quick sale.

Thank you so much for posting this. A lot of folks either don't think to provide this information and some even consider it a secret. Either way it makes it hard for the rest of us to value what we have before posting it FS.

How happy were you with the 2wd performance? Did you think about converting to 4wd?

I did think about converting it to 4W but I couldn't afford it. I put in the locker instead and bought MacTrax. I never got stuck anywhere, but I didn't go into any serious rock climbing areas.

That’s my dilemma now. I’d love to push the limits but not sure it’s cost effective. Also, the shops converting Econolines is getting fewer and fewer

2WD with a locker and an Action or Camburg lift kit can keep you out of trouble......and maybe a winch.

Hi.
Congratulations on the sale and to the new owner.
Could you please tell me what gear ratio you ran in the rear, and, where you happy with it? Thank you.
