B2600i 4x2 had a 3.727 Diff.

The 4x4 with manual trans had a 4.30

and the 4x4 with automatic had a 4.444

You arn't going to find an interchangable diff any higher then the 4.44.

I read somewhere that there was a 4.77 Kia Sportage gearset that'd fit the Mazda B2600. Anyone have any truth to that?

I think mine did too, by using tire size (stock tires) and mph in 4th gear (1:1 ratio) it came out to be right about 4.44:1 on a gear calculator.

RawDawg: Do you have any pics of your truck? I'd like to know more about your SAS? PM me please

There's a SAS thread somewhere on this forum. Our conversation would be better suited for that thread. Better yet, I'm going to make a thread dedicated to SAS. See you there...

the Pacesetter header you have did you need to do any mods to fit it in your truck because i was looking into getting one but i was told that they dont fit into the 4x4's becuase of the front axle housing
