Default Lifted Mazda truck

Hey since there are none in this forum, I'd like to share this highly modified B2200 with ya all.
- This 1992 B2200 has:
- 4.3 cpi chevy V6/ 700r tranny
- Toyota mini truck axles with longfield cromoly birfield joints.
- Nissan T100 divirced t-case
- 4.56 gearing, spooled rear,. 36inch super swamper on 15x10z
- ABout 10 inches of lift, FORD truck radius arms.
- Landcruiser tierods and vented brakes, S.S lines
- Body, interior and rear leaf springs are Mazda.
- ARB front bumper
- Box has been bobbed 18 inches.
This truck is great in mud and mixed terrain, couldn't care much for rock crawling with it though,

Did you swap the body to a different frame or is that a mazda frame? Because I was thinkignof doing the same to my b2200 but I was going to swap a jeep 3.0 in line 6 with a wrangler 5 speed transmission and make it 4X4 but if chevy swap is easier I might do that. But I'm looking for advice to do all this

Hey, The frame is original, 2wd b2200 space cab. Adding the chevy power train needed a crossmember added to hold the 700r in, so fabricating the crossmember to the frame took some time. Home made engine mounts starting with the 4.3 original mounts. Chevy swap would be so much easier to do and you'll have alot more power. Also depends on the t-case you want to use, drivers side or pass side, consider your front axle pumpkin drop side with the t-case and axle combination. Take a early 90's 4.3 from an astro van or jimmy. Wiring it up is also a huge task, unless you go carburated. Good luck with the build!
