Customs has picked up another
Mazda B-series project, an
extended cab this time. Alex, the
owner, decided it was finally time
to upgrad/rehab his aging bag
setup
As you can see, some things
definately need to change. The
gas tank crossmember (the big
handle lookin' thing in the
middle) will be re-done, as well
as the notch, link setup and rear
bag brackets.
The previous shop's work was
passable. The notch is not
pretty, but it's held up for the last
couple years. It is, however,
WAY too small to lay on anything
larger than a 14" wheel with a 50
series tire.
The 2-link, while semi-functional,
will also be replaced. Wishbone
styel 3-link, all forward will be
used in it's place, for both the
ability to hit some killer side to
side action, and for sheer
handling and safety
considerations.
Up front, the bag mounts will be
re-worked to get the mini all the
way down on the ground, so
stay tuned for some killer
progress, and a phat little
minitruck rebuild!
