No I can't get it through my head. But that's probably because I know what I'm talking about. It's a weakness I have--I only post when I know what I'm saying.
It's the tires that matter. That's what the body lift is good for.
Cranking up to torsion bars on that old thing--probably break something or screw up the alignment. There's no precedence for that. It's not a Ranger.
Whatever you are doing on the rear, it's not going to work. You may screw up the pinion angle and get a vibration. Again, there's no precedence as this isn't really a place where people build old Mazda trucks. There's a great deal of harm to be done and no gaurentee it will do what you want.
A body lift, it's the same for any truck. You know what it's going to do. It will lift your truck. A suspension lift doesn't lift the axles--and it lifts the body the same amount. Good luck trying to lift the torsion bars 3" on that. You'll put your eye out, screw up your CVs maybe, and have a crappy riding thing that has no suspension travel at all and eats tires. How do you know?
A body lift does no harm to the truck, allows larger tires--which does lift the axles and body, and all of the mechanicals stay the same. If your problem is getting stuck on a road, it's the perfect soluton--you just need a little more tire.
