Mazda 4 Door Longbed on 20's

lol You will learn young one, you will learn. lOL just playing. Has to do with ball joint binding, camber, lift and ride I bet. There are a few of us that have notched the frame to move the bag in towards the pivot point to get a better ride and more lift.

now that makes sense. i still dont fully understand the complete mechanics but now i know why and thats the important thing... lol

Dont feel bad bro....I get lost at all that bagging biz myself...would like ot have em but not fully understanding the build process and thats part of why I holding off from doing it.

The reason for cutting some much out is two reasons. First I need to clear may 20's when its layed out and second there was some rust at the bottom so I figured to cut more out and fix it. I cut the frame so I could move the bag in as close as I can to get the most lift and better ride at lower psi. I notched the UCA to allow for balljoint movement, cause the balljoint starts to bin up when you lay out all the way. You will learn just keep asking questions.

Woot Woot I was right. LOL

It is looking good bro... I like it.

much appreciated on the explanation. be cool to see it done...

dude! check out my posts..we did an extended cab longbed as a driver for my father..it looks killer! (he won't let me lower it though!)...yours is gonna look sweet with the 4x4 bed..i've been trying to find one for years!!!

Check out my long bed !! They look much better I reckon, more like how they should have been made..



Your rides coming together well !! keep it up...

damn just went through the thread again......man great work bro look awesome im on the same steps but u are by far ahead of me keep up the great work it almost looks like u know what ur doing......lol im jkn

Got out their and finshed my top gussets for the bag mount to tie into the UCA mount and frame. Just need to clean them up a little bit and move on. What do you think?
