I suspect that the van did NOT have a lift kit. We all know how high late model trucks are being built from the ground. Clearances are beyond reasonable. Obviously none of us will ever actually know, but it makes for great conversation. But something Danny said also is worthy of comment. I also suspect the wheel loss was as a result of the accident. We have owned a number of F350's and E350s over the years and the wheels are held on with eight large lug bolts. I don't see a wheel coming off by any of the usual means. The vibration from loose lug nuts would just be too great and the driver wasn't loaded anywhere near max payload. Towing alot yes, but hauling a lot, no.
This has been a good thread with great pictures to follow. Thanks to those who posted.
