I don't know whats wierder that fact that someone thought about suicide doors on a mini, or the fact someone did it...
An aerostar is a LOT lighter than you think it is... even the 4.0AWD model only runs about 3500lb
That being said I see from the PICS that you used a TK-4 trans?
I like the leaf springs, but I'd have boxed about a 1foot section of
the subframe rails where you attach the shackles to the unit body.
I like the while Idea, but when I thought about doing something similar
I was thinking of using a Gen2 explorer frame (sectioned appropriatly)
I like the whole idea, but the TK4? that's just f'in nuts.

ya theres not too much to them. When I was stripping the interior in mine to get it ready for the radio hammer smash promotion thing, I realized they have very little crash protection...all they've got is the exterior sheetmetal, theres nothing on the inside!
Hey Rulebreaker,
your living up to your name with this project, I like it.
Theres a guy out here trying to sell a '97 4.0 with 80K
AWD, needs a wheel bearing and some rocker panel work
on drivers side for $799. I don't know much about these
vans, sound like a good deal? I think so...
So hows this project of yours coming along? Any recent pics?
Have you ever looked at a Saturn? If you get hit from the side the only thing protecting you is a plastic door panel and a steel bar that two guys can bend by hand. I know as i bent one back for a lady who hit a mail box and then her window wouldn't roll up because the bar was bent. By looking at the car there was no visible damage. I'd ride in an aerostar and feel safe before I'd sit in a parked SL1. RB
