Re: Air Conditioner Capacitor

Thanks for the updates! I wish I still had my original AC unit but a clearance overhang at the mall decided it wanted my AC more than me. :oops:

Re: LT265/75R16 load range E

Judith, the width of the tire was the cause to trim the wheel well. I drove it cross country just a few weeks ago, over the Colorado Rockies and didn’t bottom out once. :D

Re: Questions On Cruise Control on a 1996

My cruise control very recently failed. I was about to drive cross country and the thought of not having any cruise control on the trip was bumming me out. I did a google search for “1999 ford e350 cruise control not working” and watched this video: https://youtu.be/mICxnDTTIJI I bought a new pressu...

Re: Seat belts for dinette and restraints for pets.

We don’t have the dinette but you might be interested in our pet restraint solution. We installed anchor points through the floor of the van, under the couch. 399A2B8F-0D32-442A-9E4A-F8B03A8F245E.jpeg There are four in total. We use them to attach to a restraint cable. 28103AF8-ADBA-45A4-8B3F-3839B8...

Re: converter

I just sent you a PM but I’ll post it here as well: I stuck with the original rating when replacing the converter - my thinking was that all the wiring was rated for that size controller. Skater went with a larger one - the thinking was a fuse would blow before the wiring caught fire. I also install...

Re: New From South Lake Tahoe, California

Hi, Julie!

Congratulations on your new rig. Hope your adventures begin soon! The wife and I are currently driving from SoCal to Indiana. Yesterday we climbed over the Colorado Rockies and just love the freedom and maneuverability the B190 offers :D
Just exited the Eisenhower tunnel and had to take a quick pic. While flat towing a Ford Fiesta no less ;)

Re: 1999 Flooring question

Thanks! The wife was really the one calling the shots on the interior. I got to handle the transmission cooler, expanded battery bank, new tire and suspension mods, and all other exterior and under the hood upgrades ;) After several trips with the new flooring, we think it’s quieter with the wood su...

Re: 1999 Flooring question

It seems like an option you already know would be to remove the carpet and Dynamat - that’s the layer of insulating/soundproofing - from the areas you want to add the new flooring. Then glue in a subfloor - the same thickness as the Dynamat - and install your new flooring on top. Take care with your...

Re: 1997 B190 Ford Econoline V10 For Sale in Austin Texas

Hi Wendy!

I got the vin from the craigslist ad as: 1FDJS34S5VHA41496

Can you please post the Airstream Vin? It’s just under the hood above the driver side headlight on a silver tag it should start with B19K.

Thanks!
