WOW would it be going straight only? how much lift would you be able to get to turn the wheels? it would be sick as hell if you can make it work bro. i wish you the best of luck!
oh, and are you planning on a traditional or a stock floor? i bet you would be better off building your own frame so that you can locate things as you need them to roll with those 24s. just my opinion, don't know for sure.
if i do bd it im going to make the hood hinge ad the hood lin on both sides so it wouldnt be as noticable. i got 03 silverado spindles and im going to have blf make me some unijoint arms the get 5 degrees of chamber change. i think i will be able to acheive 14 inchs of lift in the front to untuck it totaly with the right ratio. im going to have some tie rods fab'd up with unijoints on them as well. i really want to keep the stock hood, thats why id be having it hinged so when the tire hits it it just pushs up.
IF i bd it i will be making a frame from bumper to bumper. its going to have one hell of a tranny tunnel with the 700r4 and trick 350 thats going in it. i will make a custom intake to keep it under the hood as well.

1 for the bodydrop
either pinch or rocker doesn't matter to me, just to be able to say that you are bodied on 24s in a reg cab mazda....DAMN!
I never thought I would ever say this to anyone..
ever....
but....
don't bodydrop it.
If the stock hood doesn't fit, it shouldn't be done! (yes I am looking at you, all you guys with the huge "ski jump" cowl hoods!)
Just my personal opinion but you asked.
^^same as what im thinkin. at shows you are going to want to lay it out and itll look kinda retarded with a hinged hood. it looks sick layin frame, so just leave it that way.
Nope looks good as it sits!
2.25" is to the rocker.
