I have a theory that older fullsize vans are likely more susceptible to underbody drag without a deep valence because of their flatter face causing the underbody air path to become a path of less resistance, and thus forcing air underneath and increasing drag.
My preference is shifting from air dam to splitter. An example from Singer:

It trades overall length for airflow around the wheels, but leaves a central jet.
