There is not a single piece of credible information about the van in his diatribe!

that "overdrive" trans looks like a TH400 to me.

I had to forward the link to my parents. We had a van just like that when I was younger, except it wasn't lifted. My dad loved his van.

Too bad it's got a 10 bolt. Can't figure out that crossover steering 
Oh wow. Uhm. I give him credit for creative advertising. At least it's entertaining?
I thought to myself that looked like a Michigan creation...sure as ****...

I figure he still has 3:73's or 4:10s with the 44's, thus creating an overdrive like situation while on the highway.

...like Kid Rock or Larry the Cable Guy?
I would drive that and love every minute of it, but I have no shame
Seriously though, put a d60 under it, regear it (probably), then put better/slightly smaller tires on it. Then drive the hell out of it!

That steering setup has me baffled -- Enough so that I had to send him a question to ask how it works, LOL
edit - Dude emailed me back basically shrugging his shoulders and told me that it was like that when he bought it, lol!

I was wondering about the steering myself.
It must have an idler arm on the PS that couples the two drag links together. So the steering goes from the gear to the idler. Then from the idler to the DS knuckle. Then the two sides are tied together with the tie rod, like normal. The third rod you see up top must be a trackbar. Remember that the van steering gears mounted differently than the truck ones. The idler arm would move pretty much like a dummy gear on the PS. This lets you do crossover without needing a steering arm on the PS knuckle.
