I'm incredibly happy with how this turned out! Big thank you to everyone at AJ's 4X4 Vans! They killed it! Stay tuned for next week's adventure in the ambo!!
The ambo looks amazing lifted! Everything has come together so well. I’m so excited to see the trips you go on. I just saw your recent Instagram post and wow does the picture look INCREDIBLE!!
@@BrandonGross Stay safe out there. I'm stoked to watch more of your adventures. It takes serious balls to explore caves man. The entire time I watched the Hell Hole video I kept thinking about the movie 'The Decent'.
AJ's does a great conversion on van's seen several from them. Your Ambo is badass. Maybe see if AJ's could make you a new back bumper /deck that would hold the motorcycle and E bike.
Bro they done such a sick freaking job. I am so pumped to see you out there on that road again,hitting them caves hard, doing what you do. I live for this shit..
Masters of their craft. It looks great and now you can go anywhere in any weather or conditions. What an insane whip you have now Brandon! I can’t wait to see it in action on adventures in 20222!
Finally got around to watching the build videos. Nice! Brandon, for someone who said you weren't very experienced in the skills it took to do it, you could've fooled me. Carpentry, electrical, design, etc. Well done. Damn, it'd be so much fun living/traveling like this, even if it was just part of the year. I have to say it, though. My OCD screamed out in pain when I saw the front wheels are no longer centered in the wheel wells. I'm sure that's just how it has to be with the conversion, but it hit me hard. LOL Small price to pay, though. The 4x4 is worth it.
Brandon, I see you did it! That's awesome! Great platform with the Duramax and Allison transmission. You won't be sorry! I look forward to seeing more of your adventures.
Woweeee!!! What an amazing vehicle that ambulance 🚑 has turned out to be!! I’d almost kill for a vehicle like that!! I simply love what you’ve done with it!!♥️♥️
This is Wheel Estate at it's finest 👌 I've always wanted to do van life and I've been watching videos and tons of channels for years now but I'll never be able to do this now as my health condition continues to get worse and I have a brittle bone disease 😢 😞 Your rig is the best I've seen and the inside was done perfectly and now it's all BEEFED UP! AWESOME 👌
Can’t wait to see this! Jesse slammed his Dodge Ram van completely to the ground.. he lowered it 7inches.. cracks me up. 😂 he should have took notes and raised it.. very bumpy ride. Makes it worse when we haul our bikes lol
All of the work that has been put into the ambo looks great! You did a great job. 🙂 the hubby said he really likes it too and also has a thing for vans lol
Awesome video! The Ambo looks like it just went through puberty!!! Very tough looking. I just bought a 2011 e450 Shuttle bus and looking to do the same. How do you feel about the front coils vs. front leaf springs? How is your highway driving?
thats beast mode engaged bro luv it we build alot of custom bikes 4x4s boats and stuff for our trips i know how much work goes into builds like this you’ve done an outstanding job mate go send the shit outa it hehe goodonya bro cheers
That is so bad ass. Also I can’t remember and don’t want to go back and try to find it but what head unit did you go with the second time? I am looking for a good touch screen that does Apple car play.
Bro that turned out great they did a hell of a job! That's a great crew to have especially with all the skills/talent the guys have. My 99 Ford F250 super duty with a 7.3 Powerstroke has the same axle and gear ratio. Truck goes through anything throwing at it lol. I don't get notifications about your videos from TH-cam for some reason. Do you by chance have a news letter i can sign up for to get emails about new/upcoming videos?
OMG! Just when I thought it couldn't get any better. Are you kidding me!? It's not only a sick ambo, but a badass ambo. I loved it!!! Question: Will you keep the original color or will you paint like you did with the bus? Just curious. Anyways... Love you, kisses from OMG I'M GONNA DIE FROM SO MUCH HEAT São Paulo, Brazil.
I understand that different builds have different cost, depending on the set up. What was the rough price for the 4x4 conversion? I am looking to pick up an ambulance in the next year and I want to have a 4x4 conversion. Finding a 4x4 Ambo is like finding a needle in a stack of needles. Cheers and safe travels...
Hey Brandon wow it looks amazing so last time you were so kind in replying to my question on your guesstimate for the whole build so i thought id ask how much approx did the whole tyre revamp cost? I cannot wait to see all your amazing journeys this year in the new ambo. Thanks for sharing x
Personally, I would not waste money on 4 x 4 because it would consume more gas or diesel than 4 x 2 would. Plus, the transmission would be much more expensive to replace or fix. No thanks! However, AJ's Vans did a great job.
I don't like speaking on behalf of other people but I saw from another comment and just wanted to help. He said "Chevys run around 17k plus wheels tires and shocks. Fords are around 15k"
It looks like the lift and tires will add air resistance and rolling resistance. How much did these changes decrease the MPG for your van? Thanks for the build video, the van looks cool now 👍
I've enjoyed your videos. Due to youtube censoring President Trumps speech at the rally in Conroe Tx, I'm leaving youtube and going to Telegram. Good luck.
I'm incredibly happy with how this turned out! Big thank you to everyone at AJ's 4X4 Vans! They killed it! Stay tuned for next week's adventure in the ambo!!
Where is this shop located...I have a e350 to be converted to 4x4..thanks

It looks sick!!! I love it
Hey check out weldtec designs,he's got an ambulance he painted army green
What is the ballpark cost for that conversion?
Go pick up uncle elton and the boys with it...you rock bro🤘🤘💯
AJ's Van's craftsmanship just gets better and better. Made it to the big leagues I'd say.
Couldn't agree more! They're getting better with every conversion!
Very happy to watch this video. You are awesome brandon!!!
This is something I never knew I needed. Loved the build series you did on it.
I'm watching this when I get home in 2 hours! Can't wait to see what you've done now!
She purring so good, so cool
The ambo looks amazing lifted! Everything has come together so well. I’m so excited to see the trips you go on. I just saw your recent Instagram post and wow does the picture look INCREDIBLE!!
Thank you!! So many trips planned this year!
Holy smokes so much work went into making this happen. The team are amazing. And now the ambo looks like a beast!!
They are great guys!!! Thanks!
Came over from the TFIL channel. This is awesome 👌🏽 great editing as well. I wish you all the best on your adventures 😁
Thank you!! Much appreciated!

Those leaf springs look ridiculous overkill - I have 3 on my truck!
yeah we went heavy duty! its 13,000lbs!
Your ambo looks awesome, dude!!!👍
Wow! What an amazing group of guys! Art is awesome. Great leader! I bet that all cost at least 5k minimum. Ambo is a TANK now! It's an AmbuTank!
They're such a good group of guys! New friends of mine for life!
Brandon, I see you did it! That's awesome! Great platform with the Duramax and Allison transmission. You won't be sorry! I look forward to seeing more of your adventures.
Thanks!! no allison transmission on this one though.. I think it's a 6l90? could be way wrong though haha
Seeing all the work was amzing to watch. Gonna be a fun ride watchng the future adventures you'll embark on XXX
Thanks for following along!
Dude that thing looks sick! They did a great job. Conversions aren’t the easiest but they made it clean man. Enjoy
Thanks man! Yeah it was definitely a lot of work!
Woweeee!!! What an amazing vehicle that ambulance 🚑 has turned out to be!! I’d almost kill for a vehicle like that!! I simply love what you’ve done with it!!♥️♥️
Thank you! I'm beyond happy with it!
So sick Brandon!!! Stoked to see the trips this year. Crushing it as always with the editing
Thank you!! Really appreciate it! Plenty of trips coming!
Longer videos please! Keep up the good work!
I’ll try! Next week’s video is only 8 minutes though!

that looks bad ass now you did an amazing job on the whole build
Thanks man! I appreciate it!
So excited to watch , from the thumbnail Ik it’s gonna be good
Thanks!! Im excited for everyone to see this one!
Can’t wait to see this! Jesse slammed his Dodge Ram van completely to the ground.. he lowered it 7inches.. cracks me up. 😂 he should have took notes and raised it.. very bumpy ride. Makes it worse when we haul our bikes lol
haha I've never understood lowering vehicles but lifting is always a good idea!
That was a brilliant idea I'm jealous.I would paint it army green and use that as a bush truck.What an amazing useful vehicle that is good job 👍
I saw a sneak peak of it on your Instagram. Can’t wait to watch! :)
Thanks!! I love this video!
Dang ! Just saw this build! So Sick !! Now i want to build another! Im scared to know what that cost ! Awesome !!
Awesome job on the build and this video! Love seeing another chevy coming out of Ajs! 💪💪
Thanks man! Happy to rep the Chevy life!
Glad to see that old girl getting some TLC. You’ll have to bring that truck back to Perry Twp. So we can get a good look at it
Haha eventually I’ll bring it back that way! Would be awesome to bring her back to where she worked!
All of the work that has been put into the ambo looks great! You did a great job. 🙂 the hubby said he really likes it too and also has a thing for vans lol
Thanks so much! 😊

Awesome video! The Ambo looks like it just went through puberty!!! Very tough looking. I just bought a 2011 e450 Shuttle bus and looking to do the same. How do you feel about the front coils vs. front leaf springs? How is your highway driving?
SUPER COOOOOL dude! like your VAN!
This has been one incredible build! Loved every second of it!
Thank you!! Been a ton of work!

Thanks !
Great job!…. Your vehicle is beginning to look awesome!!… Are you going to be doing any TFIL soon?… Love all you guys!… ❤️
Great job 💪👏
Thank you!
Is the front axle slightly forward of the center? How does it ride with the extra leaf springs in the rear?
OK, now I'm jealous. That was the only thing missing!
haha exacly!
Def gonna take my van to these guys when I am ready to 4x4 swap
For sure! I couldn’t recommend them enough!
Great video!!!
Thank you!!
My sprinter needs this done 😂so sick man
You definitely should do it!! Thanks!
Daaaaaaaaammmm! It looks almost like a monster truck 🚒. Great Reno video. Enjoy it bro.
¡Se vé cabrona!
Haha I know I love it!! Thanks!
Pure Beast!!
Thanks!!
Brandon, curious what gpm you’re getting. I’m looking at a 2012 Chevy 6.6 Duramax🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
YEEEEEEEEEEAH BUDDY!!!!!!
Kenda Tire makes a 35 x 10.5- 17. Thats what I'm running. and 35x 12.5 -17 up front.
The issue was the rear tire size
thats beast mode engaged bro luv it we build alot of custom bikes 4x4s boats and stuff for our trips i know how much work goes into builds like this you’ve done an outstanding job mate go send the shit outa it hehe goodonya bro cheers
Thats awesome! Thanks! Yeah it was a lot of work!
i would love to know what you paid from start to finish on the ambulance
I'll try and make a post about the total cost soon!
That is so bad ass. Also I can’t remember and don’t want to go back and try to find it but what head unit did you go with the second time? I am looking for a good touch screen that does Apple car play.
Its a sony something 1000 i believe haha. Its great
Definitely gotta paint it man . Make it reflect the interior style
Eventually I might!
If you havent allready you should make a custom center console and put a sound system in the middle-back.
Bro that turned out great they did a hell of a job! That's a great crew to have especially with all the skills/talent the guys have.
My 99 Ford F250 super duty with a 7.3 Powerstroke has the same axle and gear ratio. Truck goes through anything throwing at it lol.
I don't get notifications about your videos from TH-cam for some reason. Do you by chance have a news letter i can sign up for to get emails about new/upcoming videos?
That’s awesome man! The 7.3 is great! And no unfortunately I don’t, have you clicked the notification bell on here?
OMG! Just when I thought it couldn't get any better. Are you kidding me!? It's not only a sick ambo, but a badass ambo. I loved it!!!
Question: Will you keep the original color or will you paint like you did with the bus? Just curious.
Anyways... Love you, kisses from OMG I'M GONNA DIE FROM SO MUCH HEAT São Paulo, Brazil.
Thank youuu! Keeping the red for now!
@@BrandonGrossMe like red hahaha Thanks for answer my question. Have an amazing time in Quito and be safe. Kisses
That looks so awesome🤘way cool
Thanks!! I love it!
Why would you go with different rims in the front? Now you have to carry twould different spares.
I understand that different builds have different cost, depending on the set up. What was the rough price for the 4x4 conversion? I am looking to pick up an ambulance in the next year and I want to have a 4x4 conversion. Finding a 4x4 Ambo is like finding a needle in a stack of needles. Cheers and safe travels...
Chevys run around 17k plus wheels tires and shocks. Fords are around 15k. And yeah good luck finding one already done! Haha
@@BrandonGross Nice. Thanks. Glad I found your channel. Much blessings and health. Safe travels, Homie...
Hey Brandon do u still do videos with Corey and Elton ?
Hey Brandon wow it looks amazing so last time you were so kind in replying to my question on your guesstimate for the whole build so i thought id ask how much approx did the whole tyre revamp cost? I cannot wait to see all your amazing journeys this year in the new ambo. Thanks for sharing x
I'll have to add it all up and make a post about it!
@@BrandonGross hey thanks for replying to your nosiest sub lol
Personally, I would not waste money on 4 x 4 because it would consume more gas or diesel than 4 x 2 would. Plus, the transmission would be much more expensive to replace or fix. No thanks! However, AJ's Vans did a great job.
What’s up Brandon the rig looks good bro. Just picked up a 2011 GMC ambo, how much did the lift cost with tires and install?
Idk why they don't make them a 4x4 in the first place!? It'd definitely help with the snow!
Are you also going to get it re-sprayed?
Nice.
So what's the approximate cost of a conversion like that and how long did it take?
I don't like speaking on behalf of other people but I saw from another comment and just wanted to help. He said "Chevys run around 17k plus wheels tires and shocks. Fords are around 15k"
That is Sic!!!
Thanks 🙏🏻🙏🏻
time for a front winch bumper !
That’s the plan!!
nice job :)
Thank you! Cheers!
How much do you have in the vehicle all together?
Around 37k
@@BrandonGross that’s less than I expected
badass
Thanks!
Tough to sacrifice the IFS comfort for solid front axle 4 wheel drive. Gonna get beat up on long drives.
Not at all! The travel of the new springs is way more than it used to be with ifs
@@BrandonGross ohhh.. coil springs. I was thinking it was a leaf spring setup for some reason. Fancy!! Looks killer!
👍👍👍
nice
Thanks!
This makes me want to ditch the truck camper and go with an ambo! Its Bad ass!
Thanks man!! Definitely much heavier than a truck and camper though haha
@@BrandonGross what’s the weight? My camper alone is 3,500!
It looks like the lift and tires will add air resistance and rolling resistance. How much did these changes decrease the MPG for your van?
Thanks for the build video, the van looks cool now 👍
I’ve lost 1.5-2mpg so far!
So what's next for you Brandon
Just landed in Ecuador! But when I get back I'll be heading all over the country with my ambo!
✨🙌🏻😎
Total cost??
Around 39k
Cant believe a professional shop would do all that work only to put RC shocks in that thing.
Fucking sick!!!!
Should have bought a 4x4 to start with..this is a commodification video only
Skid plate to protect your investment
Very good idea haha
I've enjoyed your videos. Due to youtube censoring President Trumps speech at the rally in Conroe Tx, I'm leaving youtube and going to Telegram. Good luck.
Thanks!!
This is such a dream rig!! Came out fucking awesome!
Thanks man! I love how it turned out!
