I got a thunderbird drive line and made the two them fit together. But im going to take it to a shop and let them build me a new one. and i have never messured the width but i know the axles have been narrowed because theres some tubing welded over them. I didnt put the rear end in the frame so i couldnt tell you a ton about it.

Awsome man....the drive shaft part was my main concern

Yeah i put a dial micrometer under the truck as i was putting it together. it was a pain. most drive line shops if you take both drive lines and your length and they should be able to build you one. mine has never been balanced... and so far it has been ok up to about 60 but then i can feel a vibration start.

Well its been a busy show season... Had the roadster show in Boise that was a ton of work then went on a 5000 mile journey to texmex and back then had a little local show her then 1300 miles to Oroville CA to hang out with Zac and Bob from Grant Kustoms then it was 1250 to Vegas for Last Call. And headed to relaxin at the rock in portland next weekend.... Its been quite the summer already. heres a shot from vegas

I got to park inside of Red Rock Harley it was pretty cool being right in the middle of the show room! And then Brian from Socal told me that my truck was the reason for the blue water marks on the show coverage lol

Well now that I am back from WCN, the truck will be getting ripped apart and gone through, have some changes to make and should be better then before. There be some teaser pics but the whole thing wont be seen until either FFF or Showfest...

A civilian in Mtn Home? Man, y'all are pretty scarce. I was stationed there from 02-05. I wish I had met you. I'm a huge Mazda fan. Your truck is gorgeous, bro. Keep up the good work.

Repost... I just went thru all 22 pages of this thread. I bow down to you, bro. I don't know of anyone more committed to this lifestyle. This is truly my fav Mazda of all time (Hunter, you need to finish yours so we can have a "drool-off").
