Disability Conversion with Ricon Lift with power sliding door, Ricon 6-way Transfer Seat Base, Hand Brake control. Low-effort power steering was also added.

This video gives a look at performance - https://youtu.be/cJ8LG0UzRSc This was done right after break-in at just under half throttle. Engine has ~ 35,000 on it, it runs strong and passes CA smog test easily. Horsepower is estimated at 400 with around 500 ft. lbs. of torque. If you live outside of California and have no worries about smog check, this engine can gain more power by removing the smog equipment and adding higher performance products (such as a bigger intake, camshaft and true dual exhaust). Recent oil change with Mobil 1 full synthetic. 130 Amp "Mr Amp" alternator by Performance Distributors. Hella HB2 Headlights. 17" American Racing Graphite Finish Torq-Thrust Rims with 235/60 Bridgestone Dueler H/L Ecopia Tires. Tires are in almost new condition. Suspension features Bilstein Shocks and Polyurethane Bushings. Cold A/C (properly retrofitted to R-134a), recently replaced heater core. Vehicle has power steering, power brakes with Raybestos Power Stop cross-drilled rotors and semi-metallic pads. Van got a recent check by my mechanic with no issues found. If you have questions contact me. All Sales are final. Vehicle sold as-is with no Warranty. For all buyers, I require payment in full before releasing the vehicle and title. This van also has had new weather stripping (made for the specific model), window channel seals and wiper blades. All lights (both exterior and panel backlighting), wipers washers, blinkers and horn work properly. As mentioned previously the A/C & Heater work well (A/C gets quite cool). Also when the engine was rebuilt I had a heavy duty aluminum radiator put in along with a new GM Heavy Duty thermal fan clutch.
