Hello everyone,
I am still looking for information on finding a used van that utilizes the
horizontal steering system by the EMV.

I am looking for any style van that utilizes either a horizontal steering
wheel for a joystick site system.

I was wondering about how much a van costs, the kind that can drive by joystick?
I drove the kind that had 1 lever fo gas/brake, and a mini wheel on the other
hand, but thouht a joystick kind would be better.
Thanks, Greg
Monarch Controls, made the "push n pull' systems for Paras and some Quads
with high function. EDC, is a much different and much more expensive
driving system. The push n pull systems $1200- 2500. EDC, nearly $40 grand.
Both require certification and NMEDA installation.

I've been driving push/pull hand controls with small zero effort steering for

Hope I am not wearing you guys out with this van business. My best option
is to take the circuit board to a computer repair shop. This relay is very
small. If they botch it, I am screwed to the max. Should I chance it? Also,
the van has a 95 amp alternator; would a 130 help the situation? Thanks
No issue is too small. Most alternators are the same, with the exception of
the stators I believe Ambulances use a 175 amp stator. I also believe
most automobiles use a 100-110 amp stator. A 130 amp stator will not
over-charge a battery with the right protective circuitry. Much depends
Took my van to the shop in Louisville today. They diagnosed my problem as a
bad relay switch on the circuit board. The switch is embedded so the
obvious solution is a new circuit board. Guess what? The part was
discontinued earlier this year by Braun. Their solution -- a new lift for
$7000. I just

I am having a pain in the anus problem with my lift. I have a 96 E150 with
a Crow River lift. The lift is factory refurbished and only 2 years old
(post refurb). Going up from the ground, it will stall 6 to 10 times. Then
I hear a click like that of a circuit breaker. Going down it stalls at

As you know already... CrowRiver was sold to Braun Corporation. Is there
any warranty on the rebuild? The clicking could be the solenoid. Did you
check the hydraulic reservoir tank for fluid levels?
