| I have two 450 pound A-C, rear, inner wheel weights near Princeton, IL looking for a ride towards Ohio. Anyone possibly headed to the Portland, IN show etc. I can have drop-off points on I70 or I80/90. Will pay reasonable fee. |

Lou,
I'll get the dimensions and post them here, unless Jeff, another Forum member reads this first and answers your questions. I would say yes on the E350, but will check. Thanks.
Jim

well, maybe I can help, IF they can be loaded into my van.....I can't see myself wrestling 450 pound weights into the van, if they will fit, my van is a contractors conversion van with shelves and racks inside, and if I can figure out how to safely secure them, I really don't feel like wearing them in event of emergency stop or accident.
Also, provisions for unloading would be required too
I'm going from Pitt to Peoria to pick up a Woods mower deck first couple of weeks of Sept
Of course, I could take the Pick UP, but that would quaddruple my fuel costs.....at least ------------- I am still confident of this; I will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living. Wait for the Lord; be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord. Ps 27 |

| should be no problem in that size of van, I loaded a pallet of things in wifes minivan once, so this should work just fine as they are on a pallet now. |

well, my concern is that the interior is not free space, it has some cabinets and shelving built in. However, I'm imagining about 30" diameter, which I think will fit in the side doors. can you tell me the max L x W of weights and or pallet, which ever is wider/longer ------------- I am still confident of this; I will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living.
