hi wassup everyone my name is Evan from oahu..i recently bought a 91 mazda b2200 single cab for a daily driver from home to work...i got some pathfinders with some low profiles..i think 50 series lying around that i wanna throw on the truck..i am gonna airbag it but since it is a daily, i wanna leave the bed in tack..i plan on running a 3 link rear with a behind the axle bag mount with the firestone sleeves on it..on the front i wanna run slam bags and am gonna custom make the brackets when i figure it out..for now, i wanna just drop the truck, possibly 3/4..i wanna do it cheap since i'll be bagging it in a couple months..with a 4 inch block on the rear, would i be able to crank the torsions down 3 inches up front?? anyone have any pictures of a 3/4 drop w/ pathfinders?? thanks for all the help guys..awesome site!

yes u can.


I cranked mine almost 8" already.

If u bag the truck with bed intact, ur raising the bedfloor, or not laying. just a lil heads up

what's the point in bagging the rear if it doesn't lay..? waste of money, if you ask me.. but to each his own. you can also monoleaf it, with a 4" block.. maybe raise the hangar for the leaf springs, drop the rear lower, and take out the bumpstops.. then just crank those orsion bars down.

by the way, i'd just raise the entire bed floor if you wanted to keep it as a work truck.. at least you could lay, and wouldn't lose that much space.

thanks for the advice..i'll think about just raising the bedfloor like you said..i know its a work truck..and number 1 is i need to keep the bed in tack..or it is pointless for me to have this work truck..but i know after i bag it, i'll wanna lay..i'll look into jus raising the bedfloor..thanks for the advice
