Not to mention the fuel rail that gets in the way...

Does not matter, all it is is a cover for placing a 100GW laser in orbit, which would be capable of “pushing” many things into oblivion - in space or on earth. A part of our new unofficial “defense grid”!

Nice price! I’d take it!

F250 dually? I guess you mean F350 then...

I feel your pain, had a similar story, related to a nice 70's camper van though...

I’ve had one too, although it was an auto... One of the most reliable vehicles I’ve owned.

If you move the suspension down 2" while motor & transaxle still sits on its original mounts the angle of halfshafts will change.

I guess time will tell, those Nissan vans were introduced in 2011, which makes the oldest ones 5 yeras old. Basically it is a rebodied Titan truck, so they should be more or less drama free powertrain wise.

A few dealerships around me used to install a 2" lift kit on those when they were the “hot new thing” back in 07 I think. They've stopped doing that after people kept coming back for warranty work...

I wonder how lifting it affect cv joint durability... Ridgelines with 2" of lift go through cv joints at alarming rate.

They wanted it to appeal more to owners operators by making it seem easier to maintain. While it’s not pretty at least the hood serves purpose of getting to the motor unlike GM vans or Ford’s Econoline

Hard to get any spare parts related to fuel system, notably injection pump. CP

You mean buy a lemon?

Would buy it just like that, if it wasn't so far away....

I had that as a decal on my canopy glass on a 07 yellow dakota, few winters ago it got rear ended when driving to work... I guess he took it seriously haha!

It is a common practice in Alberta to advertise cars for sale like: “cheap on gas, jus 60 to fill up” or “does 1000km between fill ups” (the last one mostly seen on older F350 trucks with dual fuel tanks haha)

Astro/Safari Cargo AWD

I would take one if it would come with its 1.9 3 cyl turbo diesel “paint shaker special”

Many newer Diesel motors have intake throttle plates just like gas motors, those are computer controlled and serve purpose of restricting intake air to get more flow through EGR valve. Powerstroke series starting with 6.0 liter has those

Love that they kept rear skirts on that citron!
