Great video and great job explaining your process for lifting the AWD Transit as well as improving the ride quality. I have just ordered a Winnebago EKKO and the first thing I plan to do is bring it to you so you can do exactly what you have described in this video. Looking forward to having you work on our EKKO.

Looks like this video needs an update as you no longer recommend using the Bilstein for the AWD vans

I've waited to order one until I saw how this setup was going to work out, to be honest that first video was daunting as hell, the solution you guys came up with is really better than I had hoped, so the main questions, how much rubber am I going to be able to stuff into those wheel wells if I'm not afraid of a little trimming? And what will the entire package run with everything shown in this video?

Jan. 17, 2020: "2020 Ford Transit AWD front suspension overview" @0:30 "You know, there's a lot of cheaper lifts on the market that'll put a strut spacer on top of the coil and lift the vehicle that way so there's like a two inch or three inch spacer on top of the coil, and it cranks this control arm down..." And he then goes on to show how that puts the outer CV joint in a bind at full droop. Fast forward to Apr 22, 2020: They come up with a kit that does pretty much the same thing (though with a reduced lift so as to just barely stay out of binding), accomplished partly with a longer spring, and partly with a strut spacer with an offset to correct the camber change (I'm wondering if any of those 'cheaper spacer kits' he referred to also adjust the camber?) They swap to a longer spring but strut travel is not increased, so strut bottoming is routine. Also end up with both inboard & outboard CV axle joints running at an angle all the time in normal driving, mile after mile. No thanks. I'll pass.

Nice solution, Im waiting on Ford to start back up so my order comes in. Will I need a diffrent set of leafs in the rear for my camper van if it is a Transit 350 148" extended AWD-DRW?
Will you be making anything greater then a 1-3/4 -2" lift for the Transit AWD.

What tire size can you run with this kit?

What are you guys doing about addressing the extreme angles of the CV axles? This lift kit seems to be the same as other cheap lifts you keep talking about.

This is exiting. Will this work on the Winnebago Ekko? How do these kits affect factory warranties on the chassis?

hello, what is the hitch height from the ground after the van has been lifted? Im trying to get an idea for a future purchase and need hitch height for a trailer build. Thank you!

you think this awd will work on soft sand with the tires aired down to 15 psi?

Two questions: Will Ford's AWD system work with an ARB rear air locker, and how big of a tire can you install with the mods in this video?

I have installed 2" VC lift on my ford transit low roof 150 awd. Still stock shocks but I have serious issues with them topping out on any small pot hole, anyone else experience this? I am hopeless. I called VanCompass and they said yes it can occasionally happen but on my van it happens almost on every bump.

I remember talking to you guys before about your lift verses the Foes lift. I didn’t buy Foes lift because of what you said, but I also didn’t buy your lift because of the cost and installation complexity. But you seem to have come up with something pretty sweet! If I could buy that for my rear wheel drive van, I would. It’s more what I want.

How about driveline phasing and vibration issues? Any penalty there?

"if you want more information go to our website", I did that and had a question, so I sent a message. It's been about a month and still no reply. Le
