What I meant was what is involved in putting 18's on a mini truck is covered in all kinds of dated threads.

But once again people take things the wrong way on SSM.

And seth your truck is lookin damn good coming together

Thanks.

HotShot, look at Coreys profile. His truck is also a Mazda, and laying on 18s. Most of the torsion bar trucks have very similar looking front suspension. Here are the pictures of my front bag plates.

You'll have something similar to that when done, likely with a stock upper arm mount. Out back, theres hundreds of things you can do.

Thats basically what the front setup on my hardbody was. The last 2 pictures do a real good job of showing you how to eliminate the bar that connects your lower control arm to your frame.
