- If Weldtec designs isn't in your budget check out Action Van Suspension. My friends getting the AV lift kit shipped to them are spending around $2800. WTD is giving them $4700 quotes.

Some of my buddies are running into those it's Weldtec all day everyday Weldtec or nothing guys that are rolling in stock height vans so they are literally rolling with nothing. Is this a thing now wtf lol. I wont talk Weldtec fans out of getting a WTD. They make a fine lift kit. So does Action Van. AV and WTD is the budget way to get U-Joint looks. Most of us are rolling in WTDs or AVs. Get what you can afford/budget and don't let non lifted van drivers give you lift kit advice. It's easy t spend other peoples money. Speaking of spending money.

Nice lift
I did the video man!!! Again thanks for the shot out RLSS Fabrication. Keep these videos coming
I'm going to send people your way man, Aluminess can't have all the money.
You got to do what you can afford.
Yeah man I didn't know keyboard off roaders with no lift kits existed in the Van world lol
I saved $2000! 😁
I want to see all my friends lifted and videos letting people know about Action Van and friends like you giving shipping/cost info is getting more people lifted. 5 of my friends are going with AV and people like Matthew and you are out of state saving $2000. I don't know what's up with Weldtec fan boys with no lift kits trying to give people lift kit advice telling people what to buy lol
love your channel John whens the next lifted van meet i live in Oceanside gonna go to Action Vans next week i got a 04 E250 wish it had a bigger motor has a 4.6 kinda down on power what do u think ?
The goal is the start of November, I will have the official date soon! 4.6 is a great reliable motor but yeah a little down on power. If you don't plan on regearing it's all about not going to crazy of a tire size. Have you seen my video on the proper tire to choose. I don't recommend getting a 285-75-16 or 285-70-16 if you don't plan on re-gearing. Here's my video on tires. czcams.com/video/Asmn-CSZU4o/video.html

What your thoughts on
AV lift kit
For a Ford Econoline 15 passenger van .
Considering that I'll keep all seats in .
Mostly highway long miles and short off trips trips
Perfect for a 15 passenger van. The Shocks Action Van comes with is Bilstein 5100s. If you want a softer ride go with Fox Shocks for $300 extra. More controlled ride, less body roll Bilstein 5100s. I like how Action Van keeps the Sway bar too for no additional cost. It's standard on their kit.
Everyone I know who have gone with Action Van is impressed. Here is a friend of mine with a Class B Van His van is heavy, 8500 pounds. czcams.com/video/V4unF7YLdDU/video.html
What's different about the Long Travel Suspension?
Long Travel suspensions are high end lifts. The $1000 lift I shared of that Ford Ranger has about 10 inches of wheel travel. The $8000 long travel kit has 16 inches. So basically long travel gives you a smoother more stable ride. It's what Baja race trucks have. It allows you to go high speed in the sand, do jumps and remain a lot more stable/safer then a basic lift kit. So in the lifted van world we got weirdos with no lift kits trying to prop up 1 company like its a high end kit but in reality the 2 lift kits for these vans are basic lifts. I'm trying to steer people in the right direction that both lifts are great basic lifts but one company is over hyped and overpriced.
Lol
Whats up man! How are you doing. Hows the van.
