mazda rear shocks?

I didnt have any luck with the search feature & I went back through 80 some pages trying to find a post I read a while back about some of the old school lowering tricks. I think there was something about using mazda pickup shocks on a lowered c10. Does anyone know what shocks they were or where the post is?

Re: mazda rear shocks?

i dont remember exactly where i saw it but i remeber that post you speak of it had something to do with moving your axle spring perches from the top to the bottom then using the shorter mazda b2200 rear shocks to compensate for less travel.....it had to do with a 40$ rear flip kit...i think that is what he called it.

Re: mazda rear shocks?

EDIT: I still cant find it. Does anyone know of an online shock application chart?
