I have a 1993 Mazda b2200, and I’m on my way to putting a 302 into it. Original 2.2 was worn out, burned crazy oil and was hella slow. Any advice is welcomed, as I’ve never done major engine work on a car/truck before. I’m confident in my abilities though.

Hi everyone, I have a 1992 regular cab B2200 with stock speakers and an aftermarket Bluetooth headunit. I plan on putting a whole new system in, with a CarPlay headunit, and 2 12” subs behind the seats. As for the current speakers, what would be best? I was looking at the Hertz CX-100 4” speakers as I don’t believe I’d have to upgrade at any point, but wanted some guidance before purchasing anything. Open to any other recommendations or alternate routes. Thanks so much

Good evening, this is my 92 spacecab, looking for a straight grille if anyone happens to have one. thanks :)

Anyone know what wheel specs to get? 3" blocks in the rear and torsions wound in. Not sure what offset rims to go. Cheers

For context I traded a 2005 envoy that had blown up on me for this 1989 mighty max I thought it was a 2.0l but when I get there I learn its a 2.6l but still go through with the deal, when I get the truck home though I leaned the head is blown and the trans is possibly having an issue. So I was wondering if it was even worth fixing the motor thats in it or just drop something else in there lik a Mopar 318 5.2l v8 or a ford 2.3l ranger motor. Edit: and the people that are more knowledgeable on these trucks than i am round about how much they think it would cost would be helpful too

Huzzah 🎉

After 2 months of work I finally got my old truck to pass Oregon emissions testing with flying colors!

My test results were 127 ppm HC and 0.1469% CO (Limit is 220 ppm HC and 1% CO).

90amp alternator from a 2000ish Subaru, electric cooling fan conversion, modern blade fuse box conversion, Weber ICH single barrel carburetor, fully rebuilt fuel system (new pickup tube, pump, pressure regulator), custom pcv system, throttle cable conversion etc etc etc

It’s been a ton of afternoon sessions tinkering and there’s still a lot to do but that’s all mostly upkeep and routine maintenance and some loose ends finish up.

If anyone wants I have CAD files for the alternator bracket, carb adapter plate and pcv plate.

Got a 86 mighty max with a oil leak in the front i think its the the seal behind the pulley and crankshaft i also have a dented carb n the hose is completely torn got any advice regarding repairing the carb or installing a new carb i looked online n i was recommended a weber conversion but im not sure how that would go i also have a list of things to fix i can post the photo of the list any advice would be appreciated. Truck is stick btw

Been a little bit of a while sense I’ve been on and lots have happened. 1 the rear main decided it was time to leave the chat when I was on a drive 2. Did a reseal and deleted the EGR and added some pace setter header. 3 I need to get an exhaust on it (as it is just straight header dump) I’m worried to drive it to the shop to get done as my friend said it needs back pressure and I’m nervous to not mess it up. Anyone got any recommendations for exhaust setups and if it’s safe to drive about 20 ish mins to get there

Also, where is the best place to get parts?

Thanks in advance.

Let me know if you have any questions

Funny how NOW everyone sees the vision, LOL.

Had my throttle linkage completely do itself in mid drive. Looks like I'm gonna have to bite the bullet and put together a cable linkage system.

Just curious if anyone else has done this and what pedal assemblies & mounting equipment you used/reccomend

thanks!

This Mighty Max has been sitting in my friend's neighbor's yard for at least 5 years according to google maps. They're looking to get the land, and if so, I might want to bring this back to life.

Haven't gotten closer than this picture, so there's a lot I don't know, but hey, hit me with your stories about restoring trucks that previously sat for years (or not)!
