I know some ppl are goin flame me for this pose but who cares....

My best freind let me have this mazda b2200 88 model for cleaning up his place...

body is sorta bad shape but i am goin to work with that..but my bigest qustion is about the rims....i want to switch over to a 5 lug rim off an ranger due to i have a killer set that would look good on there and do any of you all know any way to do this with out spending 900 big ones on it...as of now it has some junk yard find alum rims with muders on the back
 
stick with the 6 lug. i have had alot of lowriders in the past when i was young. not anymore,but they are still cool to me. pics? shape? i had a few B2000's . 2 83's and an 84. the 84 was low enough to take out road reflectore.:) 1 leaf spring in rear with 6" blocks. front no coil springs. talk about a rough ride.wow.

Thats old school stuff! I had a 87 Hardbody back in the day. Overload leaf removed and 4" blocks, turned down torsion bars cut bump stops, but I did buy new shocks so I had a decent ride. As far as the five lug conversion it is not too had if you can get your spindles machind to use toyota rotors and then swap in a toyota rear from an early 80s model because they are narrower. My suggestion is to go to the local tire shop they is selling lots of the 24s and 26s on the new escalades and see if you can pick up some 17" caddy factory rims. You can get the polished and chrome if you are lucky!

gotta start somewhere. that will make it alot better for you when it is done. you will appreciate it more too. kinda like these rigs.:)
 
yea i love this truck...its my first truck i got myself...

If any body have some good looking rims that would fit my truck i would prolly buy em....but if some one has a link to a set of Wheel Adapters that i could use ranger rims i would thnak you for ever..
 
search for some adapters, someone has to make a 6 to 5 lug conversion. i just sold a bagged suburban but was never had a mini truck just the fullsizers
 
I want to know how you afford the property tax on all of your trucks. Assuming your state has that. Also, how do you afford to license and insure them as well?

I want to see a picture of you touching it, and not some chopped picture.

i was reading somewere that a chevy 6 lug rims work on my b2200 is that trule​

Yes they will. Also toyota 4x4, mitsubishi truck/suv, nissan truck/suv almost any 6lug except for the dodge dakota has the same bolt pattern. For the wheel adapters check out AIM industries on line or pickup a copy of Minitruckin magazine and look through all the ads. I have subscribed to it since it hit news stands in 1988. It is the best mini mag out there!
