Hi everyone!
I'm working on collecting parts and information to do a 4x4 conversion on my 2002 Mazda B3000 DS (2wd). I have torsion bar suspension already, so I'm planning on salvaging a Dana 35 SLA to use as the front axle (hopefully a 98-00 so I can run manual hubs), but I'm not clear on how the 4x4 spindle/steering knuckle/brake assembly differs from the 4x2 version. I have 4WABS, with disks in the front... Would I have to get a different brake caliper/disk set for the 4x4 steering knuckles, or would mine be able to bolt on to them?
Thanks in advance for the advice!!
