- Getting your Ford Econoline Van lifted. 2" 3" 5" 6" 8" and 12" inch 2wd and 4wd lift kits and 4x4 conversions.
$50-$400 for 2-3 inches 2wd lift cheap budget option
$2000-$5000 for 5 inches 2wd more expensive option
$15000-$30000 for 6 -12 inch lifts on a 4x4 4wd conversion for rich people
I drove my second van build for a year stock height while I saved for a lift kit. I hated it. Besides driving high all the time my experience with the 2 styles of 5 inch lift kits is it rides nicer then stock.

@bobscat-wj4ub Having a bad day man?
Just got a 01 e150 im glad i found your channel. Im excited to go w a budget lift soon
Right on man! Keep me updated on your build man. If you're on IG add me.
Lifted my van 2006 E350 with 5.4 cargo which bought new from Ford in 06 , 14 yrs ago camburg when was only $2450 drop down bracket 4.5 lift that time and then I added 2 inch level kit giving me 6.5 lift with 35 BFG tires also put aftermarket hellwig tactical rear front sway bars and steering stabilizer,when do lift recommended do ball joints same time,have had any issues drives great ,handles great ,as well left rear stock gears ,not only gets good mileage about 14-15 hwy,11 around town,van does have a lot power ,as well take care of it run motorcraft oil recommended and only did E3 plugs yrs ago ,very pleased but if actionvan had there 6 inch system time would done that and 2 inch level lift,no issues with tires last long time, wish post van, also 2 yrs ago made another but 4x4 with 40 inch tires made look like my other custom company van but total lift on that one 16.5 with tires.
My first van build was lifted in 2011 by Action Van. $2800 installed! They cost $3500 installed now and Weldtec is up to $5200 installed.
Camburg doesn't sell their bent beam kit anymore looks like they are getting out of the Econoline Lift game
You're one of the OGs rolling in a lifted van! This hobby has gotten big in the last 2 years. Here's some of me and my buddies hitting trails

Great video John! Shows all the options 👍
The founding fathers would of wanted us all to have lifted vans.
I think I just found my 'people' and subscribed! I have E-250 stock cargo van (which I love for camping. You can stand up and get dressed or wash up and such out of the wind and bugs) but, the traction sucketh! Wanna get a Deetroit Locker & a lift. Gonna git it this year. Are there any meets on the east coast? Thank you for the info & inspiration!
The next Van Meet will be October 7,8 and 9. It;s going to be a Desert Adventure in Slab City, Salton Sea and the main Event is off roading at Anza Borrego.
I have 20 people interested and 10 confirmed will make it. I will try a meet towards Washington/Oregon Next and if it's a success I will try to do something Where East Coast and West Coast guys have a Equal amount of distance to cover.
I have 1 guy from Florida Interested and his drive would be 2000+ miles.
I want to find a cool spot where it's about 1000 miles for most. This channel has lifted van fanatics hanging out in the comment section! Here's the last Van meet. It's a lot of fun.
Keep me updated on your van progress!
Nice breakdown John. On Van suspensions. I wish action Van would have the same set up on UA-cam like WeldTech design It would be nice to see the Drop Kit . Videos anywhere
The guy that runs Action Van/Full Tilt off road is a really cool guy. Really knowledgeable and wont try to make you buy things you don't need. I wish he had a youtube channel but he's old school.
10 years ago the AV kit was $1900 and now it's 2089 and they still charge only $1100 for install. Went up in price a little. The Bent beam kit when I bought in 2021 it was $2700 parts only and $1500 install. It's up to $3200 now parts only. Camburg went up in price too.
Camburg also sells a dropdown bracket kit that doesn't require welding but they want a lot for it. They are more into their race trucks then the van stuff these days. I think they are in Hunington Beach

Action Van is the best deal for 5 inch lifts imo
Thank you John For the information 411 You're very helpful
@@JohnDrivesAnything Thanks for the honest review of all the lifts that are available for the FORD Econoline vans. Maybe in a future video we could really break down the differences between the kits, pros and cons. If you want to see what the Baja Grocery Getter kit with our progressive springs is capable of, here is a fun video.

My 02 Savana 3500 I’m running 285/75/16 Toyo M55 on a 3” spacer life and minor trimming
Nice! I did a few videos on the GM Vans lifted ua-cam.com/video/LT9dcQToUdU/v-deo.html
Good video!
Thanks man. 10 years after my first van build there are a lot more options now!
What’s up bro glad i found this video hope u reply i am lifting my 03 ford club wagon E 150 but cant find shocks for a 5 inch lift any advice on where can i find or search for shocks 2 wd as well bu the way great looking vans bro
Are you going with one of the lift kits in this video? Here's a video of my van off roading. I'm doing a lifted van meet in October. Hope you stick around on this channel buddy. I'm a van fanatic ua-cam.com/video/xtREJWpVhT4/v-deo.html
Going vanlift crazy here, I have a corolla nolift lol
It's ok my Tracker is no lift hash brown
@@JohnDrivesAnything double no lift hashbrown
@@josephd27 not high hashbrowns
10 inch lift not higher for 40 inch tires.
What high quality shock will work on 2" spacer lift on 2009 e350 2x2? I'm struggling
Bilstein 5100 or Fox 2.0
cool
Do you have a van build you're working on?
no. i am just looking at vans and if i find a great deal i think i will get one. the lifted vans look so cool. i had lifted 4x4's when i was young. now i just want a lifted van for hunting and fishing trips.@@JohnDrivesAnything
Let me know if you find something good!
yeah i will. @@JohnDrivesAnything
I'm wondering if anyone has the 411 on the sweet spot for light to mid-offroading plus highway driveability... how much lift/how big of tires are not too much to keep it moving down the 395 at at least the speed limit without feeling like you might pop off the road LOL
I recommend Action Van Suspension. Improves the ride over stock and with a steering stabilizer your steering feel is also improved. The white cargo van is still running 265s ua-cam.com/video/oZKnLtyf4Z0/v-deo.html
Which fender flares are those?
Here you go buddy. I had to paint them black they only come in stainless
ua-cam.com/video/jX7BeIu16eo/v-deo.html
when is your next Meet?
The plan is mid November. I have a bunch of friends lifting their van this year so I want to give them time get their lifts. Most of my friends dont want to show up stock height lol. Everyone is welcome though. My buddy with a Colorado and Wrangler have shown up to previous meets. What do you have man?
who makes your fender flares ?
Here you go buddy just subscribed to your channel

@@JohnDrivesAnything thanks man!
Why is it so difficult to lift a 2wd van, ive owned a bunch of new ,and used 4x4 trucks ,american, and Japanese. My 09 e250 2wd seems to be so difficult and expensive.
I hear that man. My brother in laws brother has a brand new Nissan Frontier. 5 inch lift $1200! I recommend Action Van Suspension for the full 5 inch lift on these vans. It's just a small aftermarket for these. It's basically Action Van and Weldtec left lifting these Vans 5 inches. Camburg isn't making lift kits anymore.
want a 2 inch lift,and a locker
2 inch lift, locker and 265 tires is a great set up. Do you have a Extended or normal length van. Here's my extended van with a ton of over hang off roading.

I have ford e350 super duty 2009 thinking of 4 inch lift kit what you recommend
Action Van Suspension. $2089 for their base kit. If you can make the Trip to San Clemente CA It's $3500 installed. Weldtecs lift is $3200 for parts and if you go to them the Install price will be $5200. Action Van is every bit as good as Weldtec, they just don't have the online hype. Here's a video of me and my friends with a Combination of Action Van and Weldtec Lifts going on the same trails. Let me know how your build goes! You'll get more then a 4 inch lift too.

Anyone know where I can get a longer 20mx2.5 Coil Spring Lower Clamp Stud? I need 230mm long for my ‘03 E450. My Ebay spacer kit came with a 3/4” stud extender which only fits F series trucks and excursions. So close but no go.
I would ask Carts and Quads he looks like the Expert on Spacer lifts for these vans
@@JohnDrivesAnything 👍🏼 thanks for the quick reply!
@@Bolthole_Studios This is the van channel that replies to comments!
IS there anyone that sells a 4x4 kit to replicate something similar to a Quigley Econoline conversion? I know about U Joint, but I only want a more modest lift and want to stick with bigger tires on stock rims. I have a 2009 E350 extended.
I just heard about this company recently and have to revise my video. Supposedly they charge $9000 www.ajs4x4vans.com/
I have a 14 econoline 250 superduty. Why would i ever mess with the suspension???
It raises the Center of Gravity making your vehicle inherently more able to rollover.
It looks cool and these vans are decent off road even with 2wd. ua-cam.com/video/tWZWVUgEF3Q/v-deo.html
Why did you even click on the video?
Right? Some people are just miserable and want to try to ruin other people's joy/hobby. I been driving lifted vans since 2012. I enjoyed my first van being lifted so much I had to do it again. Never rolled it over or got close to rolling it over in 12+ years of lifted van driving.
@@JohnDrivesAnything video is about lifts and suspension mods....guy decided to click on it and leave the comment... With no research to that rollover comment. I just bought a 2013 E350 xlt van and stumbled on your video while doing some research on lift kits then researched the lift kits and spacers mentioned ( they addressed the rollover issued in them btw and how they combat it) thanks to your video I have a plan and parts list now. Thank you and keep it up. That custom 600 dollar bumper on the van in Diego was so clean.
@@JoseDeertay Congrats on the Van man! My buddy with the $600 bumper has the nicest 2 inch spacer lifted van I've seen! What's the plan with your van? Keep me updated man.
NOT MUCH NAPPING DURING
YOUR SKIT !!!!!! 📢
