VAN CONVERSION Episode 1: Chevy Express to Quigley 4x4!

We took a 15 passenger Chevy Express and drove it to Manchester, PA to Quigley Motor Company to have a 4x4 conversion installed. At the same time, we had them put on 33" BFG KM3 tires.

    What was the mpg difference ? I had an extended E350 V10 with the Q conversion. Was getting about 10mpgs. Sold it a couple years ago and thinking about doing an extended Express

    4 wheel drive conversion ??? Was it around the $12k-18k range ??? I got a quote on mine but they said they wouldnt work on van above 60,000 miles. Mine has 68,000 miles.

    I spoke with Quigley some time ago and if I remember correctly it is around 15 to 16 grand just for the 4x4 system. It can cost more for rims, tires size of lift etc.

    That was a jerk of an answer he gave. He's pretending not to know what you are asking. Since this vid only references the 4x4 conversion it's obvious the question is geared towards the cost breakdown of the 4x4 conversion only. Why go thru all of the effort of recording the journey only to say call Quigley yourself.
