Yo
Hey all, my names Josh, and I recently bought a 2002 Mazda B3000 Dual Sport (the rangers cousin). Unfortunately its only 2wd, which really sucks, because more and more I'm getting into 4wd vehicles. Right now, there aren't any major upgrades to the vehicle, other then a grill insert, a bed extender, a RAM air filter, and as of last Friday, a cat back exhaust w/ a flowmaster super 44.

The next big thing is gonna be a 3" body lift, and then some 33's. Well, hopefully, as long as i stay employed somewhere.

Anyways, heres pix



The flares on right now cuz im painting em black. Same thing with the front grill, its black too

3 inch body will only fit you 31s, 33s would hit the fenders off roading and possibly just in turning. but hey if you want 33s just go to a bigger lift!

people are giving you a hard time cause your user name is similar to a member on here that is banned .... as soon as a moderator does an ip check and ensures that youre from arizona and not ohio you will be in the clear.
