Driving Class C on the Beach
Good Day. Just wondering if anyone here drives thier class c on the beach?
Forum Discussion
It was a website "Weird Harolds Cool Parts" as far as I can remember. Solid piece of aluminum milled to fit Class C E450 Chassis.
I understand watching videos of stuck trucks/RV's on beaches and getting worried about YOU becoming one of those! Won't state it can't happen, however, Quigley4x4 does ALL the UPS/FEDEX van/trucks and are top-notch with their engineering. Mine was lifted 2-3", dana front/rear axles put in, manual transfer case, and upgraded shocks. RV never handled this great before the conversion and 68,000 miles riding on this setup and its still awesome! Mine was a purpose-built rig for my Outer Banks fishing and some WV mountain skiing and camping. My buddy just borrowed it to take his grandkids to Disney in FL and said it was a extremely stable ride (he doesn't own an RV). The main reason for the rear spacer was so seashells/debri wouldn't cause a flat tire on the sidewalls as they would rub going down the beach. I also installed Michelin XPS steel wall tires for this reason (same tires UPS trucks use). Still stand behind my post that this truly opens up a NEW WORLD for camping....I've only seen 2 others on the beach in 10 years and its been the envy of all who see it coming up the shoreline :)
