    Jack recommendation for 1 ton van

    Yea, those work great, and they are easy to move due to being lightweight. $90 is about right for one of those. If I had the space thats the type of jack Id have.

    Jack recommendation for 1 ton van

    With the discount it was a steal, it works great and was free shipping, or you can pick it up. With the lift on my truck it was hard to find something with the range needed, this took care of everything. I worked with a guy that did this kinda stuff. The jack gave out one day and the van...

    Jack recommendation for 1 ton van

    This was a good deal, good range 11"-21", good capacity 6K, and safety locking jack stand built in. Still pretty compact for what it is, and theres a 25% off deal if you need some more stuff. http://www.pepboys.com/mobile/products/details/633527/50 Its also got a flat metal base for gravel etc.

    Van is shuddering

    Autolites are fine in fords. Yea, motorcraft is what is SUPPOSED to be in there, but in the same way ford fluids are supposed to be in there really. What engine is this? If its the 3 valve 5.4 then the plugs can be a bitch, especially the back ones, they have an extra shaft welded to the plug...

    Best Big Bed Truck?

    Short bed length is 6ft, long bed is 8 ft. Probably about 5.5ft wide, as long as its not a flareside.

    Just a sign of the times I guess...

    Ditto, I find it hard to believe you asked 100 people for help and no one would. I REALLY hope thats not the case anyway haha. In what way were you broken down?
