Leafspring swap out? Mazda bseries to Ranger?

[XtraKrispyKernal]

Hey does anyone know if 92 Bseries and 92 ranger leafsprings are interchangeable? I'm getting yes and no. Couldn't find a thread about this even though I'm sure there is one thanks

No they won't fit
92 Mazda springs are about 51" from eye to eye
92 Ranger springs are about 56" from eye to eye


Mazda B series springs from 94 up will fit

Thank you

Mazda B-series were imported into US/Canada prior to 1994, so are much different than Rangers in those years

In 1993/4, to avoid the higher Import Taxes, Ford started building the B-series in the US using Ranger frame and drivetrains, so 1994-2010 B-series used the same frames and drivetrains as Rangers of the same years
