Thats a badass Mazda! You just dont see alot of the 93-97 Mazdas with a SAS.

 

[RandyL]

ya the sas was the best thing i ever did to the truck and with the new tires it rides soo nice, just i have bump steer ... i need a drop pitmin arm then it will drive like a new truck

 

[stegomon]

that is how ford should have made the damn rangers to begin with.....if ford started with the solid axil...there would be more and ford would not be dropping the ranger line

^^^

Then it truly would have been a mini f series haha

Wow that's my truck with a reg cab and bigger tires (the only two things I'd change on mine). Nice Mazda!

Sweet looking truck man! You ever consider taking off them mud flaps? They look a bit out of place with them big ol tires.

 

[RandyL]

no thats the only thing the cops well pull u over for here is no mud flaps


btw new meets .... 37s

i have to take a good pic tomorrow.

Wow, VERY nice job! I like it. Seems perfect for all that off-roading, up in Sudbury and Coniston. Lotsa rocks to climb over, there. Now I feel homesick.

Not sure how you manage to keep the underside so rust free, w/o undercoating! My '97 B4000 doesn't look so pretty underneath, here in VA.

Nice Mazda. Love seeing another D30 swap.

Nice swap, looks great!

BTW, what did you do about the ABS stuff, and did you retain the stock master cylinder?

I'll be putting a narrowed HP 44 in mine late this year or early next.

I'm surprised there's no freek out over the D30 + 37s yet...oh well who cares?!?!?! it's a BA lookin' rig. I hope my truck looks like that in a year.

 

[RandyL]

Well i haven't posted on this in a long time!!... Dana 30s still strong kock on wood! Lol mad a few bad ass mods! .... Bumper , sliders, snokel, leds

 

[Downey]

bad ass where did u get the cross member your arms mount too

 

[RandyL]

It's the rough country xj cross member just modded to fit ... Cut room for cats and cut old tranny cross member and welded to the new jeep one for my tranny mount and it works good
