In this episode of the RVing with Joe & Kait podcast, we dive into the world of 4×4 RV conversions, lift kits, and suspension upgrades with Dave Eisenbeil, Director of Sales and Marketing at Quigley Motor Company. Our discussion covers how Quigley modifies Ford Transit vans, GM vans, and E-Series cutaways to help RVers gain more ground clearance, fit larger tires, and handle more rugged terrain.
Dave also breaks down the differences between all-wheel drive and four-wheel drive, explaining how each system impacts off-road performance. If you’ve ever considered lifting your RV or converting it to four-wheel drive, this episode is packed with insights to help you with your decision making.
“Just having that ability to go a little farther, get away from the trailhead or away from other people.”
