Mazda 4 Door Longbed on 20's

Yeah, that would be great to see the look on their faces

Looking awsome mate she realy has come along way

man i cant wait to see the deisel in! thats going to be crazy!

Little update. No pics sorry. Got the front end pulled back off and hoping to pull the motor out this weekend. Keep your fingers crossed for me. And thanks for the votes.

The diesel is going to be sweet....My original thoughts were a diesel (My town is full of them, of course they are jacked up dodges with stacks though).... so ive always wanted to bag/body a truck and put a diesel in it

The look that would be on their faces when they got passed by a mazda blowing smoke on them...lol

Cant wait to see the end results!

Alrighty my friends..... Who wants some pics and a update.......


Well got the motor out and the diesel in. Need to finish the motor mounts and a few other things. Now on to the pics!!!!!!

Old motor just waiting to come out.


Looks so small.


A right hand power steering gearbox.


Hey where did the motor go?


Oh here it is on the floor.


First test fit.


Had to do some work. Still need to finish it up.


Big shoe horns work wonders.....LOL


A little turbo action.


It fits.


It fits.....


Hey look it fits......LOL


So now I need to ask for some votes. Now I really need to replace the slam 6's with something bigger bags. The motor weighs ALOT and it needs alot of pressure to raise the front, so bigger bags will fix that problem. Please vote!!!!!! THANKS!!!!!!!!!!

Good progress chuck! Man that swap looks like it might be quite a bit of work. You plannin on ss7 or re7 bags? Might have to dish the frame to get them to fit good. looking good man.

Thanks man. The swap is fairly easy new motor mounts, new bracket off the tranny mount for the tranny and 6-8 wires is all it needs to run. The biggest part is going to be adapting the mercedes tranny to a mazda driveshaft. The Mercedes tranny has a weird output shaft(more like its a flat plate with rubber mounts). As far as bags probably the ss7 and my frame is already dished....I actually planned ahead for bigger bags just didn't think it would be this soon....LOL

Looks good man, real good, I always wanted to do a diesel swap in my maz, im thinking of puting a 7.3 powerstroke into my 64 cadillac. P.S. I voted for you.. shhh
