2006 Level 2 Overland rig
8 Attachment(s)
As many of you know I used to have a 06 Mazda B2300 around here that I tried to make into an overland rig and for the most part did alright at it but eventually the lack of power, no space and only a 2wd really just got to be too much as I was craving more serious off road adventures and an overall more capable rig!
Here's the new rig that I picked up in January, had 97,000kms on it Attachment 215501 Being a level 2 it came factory with 4.10 gears, 8.8 rear end with a torsen lsd, bilstein shocks and rad, t case and gas tank skid plates Since then a lot has changed to make it more capable, luckily I had a lot of parts from the Mazda to steal from before selling it! Tires/Wheels -285/75r16 Goodyear Duratracs(So far I love these) -16x8(4.5" BS) Pro comp 7031s Suspension -T bars cranked but not quite maxed out -Belltech extended shackles -Long leaf add a leaf from local spring shop -Factory 2.5" blocks -Stock bilstein 4600s up front/5100s (From Mazda) in the rear Lighting -Led headlights in black housings -Led Reverse/corner and license plate lights -21" Kodiak double row combo bar on bumper -4 5" Kodiak double row spots on roof basket -Pair of Kodiak flush mount flood pods in rear bumper Interior -Led dome light -Explorer sport trac silver hvac panel -Kenwood double din radio -Jl c2 5x7 front speakers(stock rears for now) Exterior -Custom rear swingout bumper -Cap from Mazda -Custom bed cage to wrap around cap -Smittybilt rtt on cage -Curt roof basket on explorer roof rails mounted to cab -Black headlights/corners -Black ford emblem Misc -Magnaflow muffler -Air intake silencer delelte -G2 high capacity diff cover The plans -Affordable Off Road winch bumper -Smittybilt x20 10,000 pound winch -Longer Bilstein shocks -Finish sound systen(matching rear speakers, 10" sub located between jump seats, 5 channel amp for everything) -35% window tint to match rear door windows -Install cb/whip from Mazda -Tune(4.0L has power but the extra weight is defiantly noticable) -Torsen front lsd -Stang dome, Explorer ohc with buggman led panel -Lots more Attachment 215502 Attachment 215503 Attachment 215504 Attachment 215505 Attachment 215506 Attachment 215507 Attachment 215508 Thanks for reading! |

Got my new Affordable Off Road bumper on! Extremely happy with the overall amazing construction of this thing, next thing on the list will be mount the 21" bar a little differently(Too far back right now and the bar hoop is cutting off a lot of spread) and then a winch!
https://www.affordableoffroad.com/sh...per-1998-2011/ For anyone curious the bumper and oem rad skid I painted with Chassis Saver, then rock guard then clear coat to stop fading and to make easier to wash in the future and I love the texture!

Were those fender covers stock on the 06? I'd like to find that for my 05.

I've always had a soft spot for those bumpers
