yeah, I need some help on this too. I got a buddy wanting to bag his d-50... Anything else gotta be done like raising gas tank or crossmembers or anything?

you guys need pics of 2 different vehicles, blitch you can basically use the same setup in the d50 as a mazda there basically the same dealio.

bagged why dont you pm dave and ask him for more detailed pics or something.

They are a little bit different.

Blitch, if you want more info you can go HERE

Thats for the front setup. Just got to make sure you cut enough of the spring pocket out (Thats either if you are using cups, or flat plate brackets).

As for crossmembers, there is one that will hang down, and the gas tank might. I cant remember if it does or not.

My biggest question is "Can it lay with stock lower control arms? Or do I "need" DJM lowers?"

Like you said i had nice pics.. you notice the stock arm i had..

So yes you can lay it with stock arms,
But you will need to raise ball joint when you do this , Flip the tie rod end.


If have anymore questions shoot me a pm' i'll try to help ya out.

David, thanks for all your help! Im going to start on it this week, Iv got all my parts in.

I have a question about fliping the lower balljoint with stock lower control arms. Whats envolved? Also I have 22" rims and I want it on the floor. I realise I will have to notch the frame a little so the control arm can swing that far.
