Hello all.

So a while ago i posted a thread about looking for a ranger and a bunch of questions to go along with it. I need something newer then my car 1986 Volkswagen Cabriolet
Finally in a truck!


well i did not buy a ranger, got a 2005 Mazda B3000! I went to the local car auction and saw this little guy sitting there. its a little beat (mirrors taped up, rough interior, tailagte handles broken, 2 nice dents. Its a lease back from a parkign company (imperial parking) and its white so its my imperial storm trooper.
Finally in a truck!

Its a RWD which i really didnt want i was lookign more so for either a 2.3 RWD or a 3.0L 4WD. I got this truck after all said and done for $3400 with 128xxx KM on the clock. It runs and drives awsome almost new tires! Its also a duel sport model which according to the internetz means its slighly lifter over a regular B3000? can someone clairfy this?

I wouldnt mind giving it a slight lift like 2-3" im considerign using blocks for the rear what would i do for the front?
little flex lol

also odd issue. i noticed it when stopped at a red light that the engine idel speed suddenly drops and then comes back up again. i had the hodd open and it looks to be this is caused by the AC compressor clutch? is there even a comprssor clutch?

thanks.
 
nice, to be honest, I thought the b series died lol
