2014 rb50

Just recently purchased a 2014 SportsMobile RB50 with the 6.8 gas.
A few things on my to-do list; address the suspension; I assume I’m limited to shocks unless I can find someone willing to do Front and Rear leaf’s?
Replace the house battery once I confirm it’s bad (it could be operator error)
Ensure the radio switch is good (having a weird thing happen at night with the radio; again it’s likely due to my ignorance on my end).

Attached are a few pictures.

Nice. Do you know who did the conversion?

I don’t; but I’m open to finding out if someone can point me in the right direction.

If you post close up photos of the front suspension someone may be able to ID. Front leafs though, sounds like UJoint. You might contact them and see if they have a record of the van.

The side of the van says sportsmobile 4x4. I would guess they did the conversion?

Not necessarily. I have the decal and a Quigley conversion. I believe the 4x4 decal was used if the van had 4x4 at the time of the SMB conversion.

Welcome - from another East Coast resident. Good looking rig!
I'm guessing the van is a Sportsmobile - just making that assumption on the fact it has the Atlas Transfer case (twin stick)

Thank you all. I assumed it was sportsmobile; all the manuals I have are from them. The entire binder actually.

Nice find! Hey East Coasters, isn't this Lee's old van? As in Lee from VA who we all know from NRocks gatherings. He isn't active here lately and I can't remember his username?
