Title: Astro Van parts needed Post by: FieroDough on April 18, 2004, 10:34:07 am Were pimping up the tow pig Astro Van. :)
It's in desperate need of nicer looking rims. :P it has black steel rims now. :( Looking for the tinted replacement windows. Basically anything for it. it needs very desperate attention. *lol* PS: Same parts as SAfari vans. Cheers!

Most parts interchange between years of Astro and Safari vans. Class three reese hitches are available and small block chevy V8's can be installed for more power. If towing use as large of a tranny cooler as you can fit in there, the 700r 4 speed auto's do not like heat. Get the windows tinted as the factory tint is not that dark. For future reference lots of baby seats can be installed safely. Mine has almost 400,000km's on it and still going.

But can't put a tranny cooler. :( Title: Re:Astro Van parts needed Post by: GoFast85 on April 19, 2004, 09:44:56 am But you can change the tired out oil tranny oil.
Title: Re:Astro Van parts needed Post by: 2ML67 on April 19, 2004, 09:59:03 am Well now mine may be an auto but I will bet she can pull harder than yours. The 350 cubic inch 300hp motor might have a little to do with it though.
Definetely run synthetic fluids in standars tranny's. Title: Re:Astro Van parts needed Post by: cowans on April 21, 2004, 10:01:34 am Princess Auto has class 3 hitches for $100 sale.
