E-Series VansTechnical discussion of topics related to vans powered by any of the Navistar engines. This covers a broad number of years, but there isn't enough demand to split it any further.
I found a drawtite at picanpul for about 50$ . it was from a 87,,,, and I had to drill a couple of holes , no big deal, I used my 1/2 bosch 24 v ,ah, yes there was a "kink" in the frame rails in the rear , the hitch came w spacers for that. I need to get one of those ford trailer pig tails too, I keep looking but havn't found one yet.... darn.....

There isn't many salvage yards around here. And I'm not going to drive 2 hours to go see what they have (most don't know what they have in stock sometimes).
The frame on the 90 is different from the 99. The 99 required spacers to make up a "low" spot on the frame. I just used some washers. The 90 was a straight frame, but started to taper at the end.... go figure.
I picked up the wiring harness at a Ford dealer. Cost a bit. I just don't know if they got the right "one". I thought it was a kit- would include the relays for the box under the hood. NOPE.
