Hey guys I have been wanting to lower my truck for some time now, so I decided to be a huge moron and lower the front end by unscrewing the torsion bar adjustment bolts which game me a total of 3 " lowering in the front but then screwed the hell out of my camber. So now I have to do something about this because I just got my 3 " blocks made for 12 bucks each... sooooooooooooooooooo, what can I do next!!!

Help me please, also my speedometer is making a fucking anoying sound, a buzzing or a clicking noise???

Also is there such thing as a performance chip, where it can jut "plug" into the engine...

Also for a second generation mazda B2200 with the ex cab and a long box, what do I need for U Bolts, I have the 3 " blocks ready to be installed but then I would also need U bolts that are 3 " longer then normal. I can get them machined but, I don't the thread depth or the thred pitch ot the U bolt. If anyone has the info ready or knows off by hand that would be very helpfull.

Thannks everyone

To fix your camber I'm almost positive that you can just go to a shop and have an alinment done. The back U bolts I don't know, because I haven't lowered my truck. The chip, well if you have EFI maybe. But if it is carbrated I don't know what the hell it would do. To fix your speedo cable, take the cluster out and pull the cable out of the cluster (be carfull not to break the clips) try one of two things. A.) put grease on the tip or inside the back of speedo. B.) or you can spry some kind of lub down the cable (inside it) or both. this might help or might not.

Hey as far as performance chips go good luck I've never found any the computer only controls your sensors and has a little to do with your carb but I don't think it would do any good really even if someone makes one and the torsion thing like he said can be fixed with a front alignment thats what I did to mine until I get my tax return then I will be installing drop spindles and as far as the blocks go where did you buy them without u bolts and hardware any kit i've ever seen comes with u bolts and hardware you can get these kits most anywhere like autozone for about $20 thats blocks u bolts and hardware if you can return the blocks thats what I would do and just get a kit

The chamber can be adjusted manually with spacers, although it is best and easiest to just take it in for an alignment. There are 2 creat big bolts on the back of the radius arms (upper control arm). They are accessable from inside the engine compartment below the inner fender. Adding spacers adds negative camber, removing space adds posative camber. You will want to remove space. Almost all auto shops around here carry drop/riser blocks. for $30 you get the blocks the U-bolts and the nuts, complete kit.

Performance chip.... well like said nobody has ever seen one besides if they did the engine is far too mechanically limited for a chip to be worth half a sac of shit. The only way worth while power out of the engine is to physically modify it. If you want performance fuel injection try a DIY kit. I want to build an engine in the future ran off of MegaSquirt, its a Do-It-Yourself fuel injection system, you basically build the entire fuel system and program it which ever way you want. You can have it setup so that when you punch the throttle it will kick in a secondary injector system that injects nitromethane in with the gas and pumps your power through the roof, since you program it what to do you can tune the fuel ratios at different rpms when the nitro kicks in.

I was going to just get an alignment done, and about the kits. Where I am from there is shit all for aftermarket, there is shit all for regular parts!!
And I went into the city and they wanted 85 dollars canadian for a block kit with bolts, and 250 for just a single leaf 3 inch drop kit so this looked the cheapest...

But thankyou anyways

Brodie

Look for blocks at Lordco or Canadian Tire, or better yet, take the springs to a spring shop and get them de-arced and take out the overload(thick, short spring). I've been on the same de-arced springs fo rthe last 10 years, and beat the crap out of the truck with no problems. As for the camber...once the shims come out, there really ismt more you can do other than aftermarket spindles or control arms, which will drop you, but still keep camber the same. You can also flip the lower ball joints, but will gain you only about 3/4".
Had a buddy who lived in Canmore. Now he's in Ft McMurray. How close to Edmonton of Calgary?

tell you what if you wanted I could buy a kit here and mail it to you I sell stuff on ebay (seller name brandon007) from time to time and have mailed to canada numerous times I could probably get you a kit and mail it to you for say $30 US if you have paypal and would trust me with $30 just an idea though hit me back if your interested also I would do that for anyone on the board that lives in Canada and I can get around the duties on the stuff by marking its value less than $10

Brandon, thankyou for the offer. I have already had blocks machined, but if you want to give me all the info you can on what to do and everything I think i will do it. But it is going to have to be closer to feb 10...

P.S. what else can you get from the states?, corner lenses, tail lights, I also need to know where I can get ahold of a new roll pan that is fully shaved??

Thankyou

Brodie

yea i could get you anything from here euro tail lights, clear corners, most anything however most of the people on e-bay will ship to canada and you can get stuff real reasonable for the roll pan theres a company fender bender international (www.fbimini.com) or Sir Michales that sells pans pretty reasonable and they would probably ship to you
