Intro and Astro

I drive a 1991 Astro that i have outfitted for extended camping. i also have a 1989 AWD that i am contemplating another more improved camper style conversion and lift. I am procrastinating on the AWD conversion because  the EXT 91 has been such an awesome unit with excellent fuel milage so i hate to part with it for an older version allbeit AWD. Since probably 65% of my driving is off pavement in Mexico or on the Indian Reservations out west I would like to find a later model AWD (05 would be great) with less milage to do a total make over so i can be secure that it will endure the abuse and last me for many years.Part of the excuse for the lift kit would be because of the damage i have done to the front end and rockers front bumper erc.on the 91  pretending it is 4WD.
