i've considering doing something like this on my truck latelty. (i've seen a truck done like this locally many yrs ago, liek when i was 16, about 10 yrs ago). considering i have a gas mig now, and i know i can do this, but i need to completelty redo the inner bed and c notch the driveshaft support and c notch the frame for the wheels and make a rear crossbar for the frame, i figure add another axle, just have it a rolling axle, air bags, not sure on the suspension, i wanted to do a 3 or 4 link before. but it all wouldnt cost me much to do, just time.. cant decide also if i want to have paneling come in between the 2 rear wheels or not. i'd have more room to load stuff into the bed, extra room to hide compressors and tanks underneith..

btw, i plan to keep my truck...

has anyone seen this done on a mazda b series?

there is a guy that comes to the shows on the east coast. it is white and tandemed like that. its on hydraulics and the rear axle is just a floating 2 link. no suspension at all on the rear axle. ill see if i can find some pics of it.

i have seen them with the extra fender piece to break up the rear axles and i have seen it go straight across both of the axles at the top. personally if you do it you have to have the extra fender piece to breakk the axles up.

i know of a yellow one in ct here about 9-10 yrs ago, thats what made me rethink the idea and be different.. also i was debating to ditch the chrome and get silver wheels.. so it would match my car for colors once again..
