newbie needs a bit of help

corn_rocket · 07-05-2012, 06:03 PM

Recently acquired a 2wd prerunner built on what I think was a mazda chassis. It's dressed up like a ranger now but not sure if this is pre-1998 or newer. Can anyone identify the year range by looking at this set up? If so, pls let me know. Attaching some photos of the front suspension set-up. Note: engine is pulled so suspension is extended - may look a little off. I think I have a mid travel set up. If anyone has suggestions on long travel kits that would fit with this era chassis, let me know.

thanks

It would be a 98 and later IFS. If it was pre 98 it would have tib.

definately 1996 plus with a midtravel kit. mazda and ranger frames are exactly the same, so you can call her a ranger. and for the lt kit, custom is the only way to go but honestly if you ever plan on driving it on the street then i would jus keep the mid travel kit
