I got the chance to shoot this 2013 Ford E-450 Thomas School Bus recently for Four Wheeler magazine. It belongs to Steven Merrill, who works at the go-to Ford E-series 4x4 van specialist Ujoint Offroad in Fletcher, North Carolina.

Most folks dont know just how COOL the 5r110 tranny is. I have had two 2014 6.8s with that tranny ....LOVE it!! The mountain descents are the awesome thing when you hit that "tow" button on the end of the gear shifter. It'll put you into the windshiled.

Does this mean no more snow days? Curious why your running your rear tires so deflated? Also considering the swap from dual rear wheels to single, did you have to add a wheel spacer or anything else? Lastly, what's the rating on those rears? Thank you nice work boys...
@stevenmerrill739
@stevenmerrill739 Рік тому
we deflated the rear tires after attempting to drive out of the pit with no success so we aired down to around 20psi and she crawled right out no problem, i did add 2' wheel spacer to the rear with a little extra backspacing on the wheels to fill out that wheel well, and by rating i assume you mean weight rating witch if i remember correctly is 3500lbs, and that is how i'm able to run singles in the rear.

What is the towing capacity for this bus? I’m looking at doing a build and wanting to be able to tow my jeep. Just can’t find any answers on towing capacity online for busses.

A stripped E0450 cutaway van for that year had a towing capacity of 10,000 pounds. With that bus body, it likely cut that in half. I know that's the case with most motorhomes on the same chassis.

He works for the company that sells the conversions. Pricing depends on a few different things. You can actually see all of the price breakdown here. www.ujointoffroad.com/products/e-series-4x4-conversion/

@Ali_Mansour_Editor
@Ali_Mansour_Editor Рік тому
It depends on what parts you need and if you are going to do the conversion yourself. You can find parts pricing on Ujoint's website here: www.ujointoffroad.com/products/e-series-4x4-conversion/

@D_Cali_Life 8 місяців тому
Anywhere from $10,000 - $25,000 depending on lift, springs, dana 60 vs dana 60 wide. Usually buses you want the wide track axle due to the weight.

It's on his list of future upgrades. For most of the camping/wheeling adventures he takes his family on now, he can get away with an open rear diff for now.
