gettin ready to order my stuff..few questions

JUST GOT MY TRUCK TO THE HOUSE and ready to start ordering parts

the main question i have is on the drop spindles. ive heard some people talk about s10 balljoints on the lca. is this needed or can i just order the spindes and be done?

for now im just gona block the rear. BUT how well do mazdas do with mono leafs? ran one on ALL my hbs and a dime. just wondering if i need to with the mazda. good place to find steel blocks? living in the north i dont want aluminum blocks form the parts house.

redrilling the hangers?? i know on hb's for a lil more drop and a better ride you can redrill the front leaf hangers. is ther room for this on a mazda or any need for it? ( i havent gotten a chance to crawl under mine yet and investagate)

and finally....TUCKAGE.....ona stock bed and fenders...what the tuckage like? or am i gona have to get fenders and flare the bed sides?

that should do it for now!!! thanks guys....i promise once i get used to the mazda ill be ok without askin to many newb questions!!! LMAO

The answer to your question about drop spindles is when you order spindles they come with s-10 ball jounts as your new lower ball joint. Here is a link to where I got my spindles from.

the drop spindles are built to take an s10 lower balljoint, the spindles are supplied with the plate to mount the s10 balljoint, with little modification to the lca,

as for the rear, what i have done to all of mine was, keep the main leaf and the overload leaf, and tossed in a 3 inch block, if its a cab plus i used an angled block, ill ive used were aluminum blocks, i painted them to protect them from corroding

you dont need to re-drill hangers, they dont hang lower then the frame like the nissans

depends on the wheels you run, you can use the stock sheet metal, some people use the 4x4 sheet metal
the offset on the hardbody's are a little higher then the mazdas

my buddy has a hardbody and we've done all the stuff you talked about lol

thanks guys.....so on the spindles they come with s10 balls...whats the modification thats needed on the lca?

ya ive always been a nissan nut and always will be...but the b-series truck are so sexxy laid out!!! thats why i had to have one!! not only is this my first mazda but my first excab as well....

i got my blocks from stylin trucks if that helps good service good product
