1990 Mazda B2200 Is BodyDropped!!!

not to mention the fact that he had to narrow the rear section and do a ton of fab to the a-arms. if you plan on building the truck on 24s, you should have bought the wheels first and built around them. all this work youre doing is a waste of time cause you will have to do it all over again when and if you finally get the 24s.

well got some brackets finnaly done , did lots of partying and not so much mazdaing this weekend

Will go behind the crossmeber to the stock frame

was going to make little triangle kind sorta shaped reinforcements tto go under the stock frame,but it was taking to much time ,this weekend we will have the frame tacked in place hopefully

Ok so this weekend we worked on building a new backhalf frame. its not complete but i would say its about 85% done

Few videos of the four link


Now onto the good part:)


First thing was we braced the rear crossmember

Drivers side frame rail

Passengers side


Both



Next step:





2nd part of the backhalf:






The box part isnt welded in place yet but thats what the final product would look like
Enjoy:) we will be finishing the frame this week or weekend

nice glad your getting your dream done man

nice progress

Thanks everyone for the comments and yes Todd I've always wanted a lowrider since I was young had very shitty luck with the old truck I'm glad I can say this ones built not bought but I gotta give a huge shout out to Chris Rojotte couldn't have done this without him

looks good. Just a suggestion, you might want to add some fish plates on the joints for safety and strenght.

I will be doing that when i add the bed and bag mounts but shes finished and primed heres a few pics of the final result :





Walk-Around Video:


More pictures go to my photobucket album:

How do u old Mazda veterans suggest I go about reinforcing the rear cross member better so it doesn't flex I really don't want tubes in the center but to move it in n out of the garage it's good enough for now I want to put a tube from the bottom of the cab floor an put some 45 degree tubes connecting to the center hoop





No more updates till next weekend Body dropps the plan good way to start off march I would say let's hear your thoughts and opinions on the frame
