Small update

Had some welding done this weekend, still have to grind down the welds and do a bit of body work, but I think it will turn out alright.

Movin right )

I love the Mazda logo on the wheels! They complete the look.

Metalworx is a great place. Trevor and the guys do great work.

Hell yeah lookin good bro! One question, did you tear old rollpan off or jus weld new one over top of it??? Ive still yet to put the one i got from Mikey on lol plus my good tailgate got stolen and Justin been raggin me to come get his...Either way I'm tryna shave my bed up like yours jus need that info... thanx

Thnx bout the rims and such all. To answer your question about the roll pan, im pretty sure it can be done either way. On mine a slit was cut in the bottom sides of the stock pan and rolled up, then welded the new pan to the bed and the rolled up part so that the new pan would fit at the bottom flush with the bed and with the stock pan remaining it sits fairly stiff. On the stock pan the license plate area had to be cut out for the new plate box to fit. So im guessing mine is a bit of both.....still there but slightly modded. The only other issue im having with the new pan is that in between the two hinges at the top seems to be pushed in about a 1/4 of an inch further than the other side of the hinge causing the pan to be flexed inward up top and outward at the bottom. I don't know if the trucks were made with that offset in the bed or maybe due to a past fender bender or what. I do know the rear bumper had been hit before and it put a small dent in the left rear bottom corner behind the bumper, but it didn't appear to alter the shape of anything else. I dunno, but my fix for this will be to stud weld the lenghth between the hinges and try to slowly pull the upper center out.

Yet another small update, haven't had much time here lately to knock out the body work due to work, but hopefully i'll have a good bit of it done next week since ive got thursday and friday off. Did get a couple parts in thou and still waiting on a couple back ordered parts....blah

Two 50lb solenoids, 4 channel computer, and wiring


Two 3500 series poppers

Been awhile since ive done an update. Had a chance to do a little bit of work to it since last time thou.

Pulled all the a/c and heater paraphernalia, gonna end up running a stand alone heater core to keep defrost and a bit of winter heat



650ft of ultra wire wrap in assorted sizes



Was planning on relocating the battery to the rear but desided it wasn't completely necessary but still wanted to relocate the wiring a bit. Going with 12 ft of 1/0 awg wire



Nickel battery terminals



Distribution Block (1) 1/0 in - (3) 4 g out



Pulled main fuse block, starter wire, and alt wiring for reconfiguring and such



Before and after trimming the rad housing to do the headlight bucket mod for the phantom billet grill

Started with the front body harness. Getting rid of unnessasary and unused wires and tucking, relocating and shortening whatever is left over. What im starting with, pulled dash and explosed all the front body, engine and emissions harnesses











After a bit of going through and wrapping and sorting





Still have to do a bit of straightening and nix the temporary zip ties but a basic completion concept







Desired location area of the new heater core(still in the works)

Started with the front body engine bay harness tuck and trim and such



Pretty much deleted everything...... Only have two wires going across the rad now and those are wires that are needed for the HID lights. I now have the turn signals and running lights running from there respective side and have the three signal wires running on the passenger side only for the headlights. Moved the horn relay over to the driver side to shorten up the wire, will probably run it to an air horn solenoid eventually.





Quad ultra wrapped power wire to help against abrasion and cuts

POR-15'd the inside of the fenders and upper fender well to help with rust and corrosion. Also got the billet door looms installed.







Fenders back on, still need to do some adjusting and the obvious body work



Finally found a bubble hood and slapped it on
