Default New B3000 owner

Hey y'all, new to this forum officially, but have been reading it all the time about what all I could do with a 1999 Mazda B3000 2wd before buying it. I finally got it and for a 99' it only has 104k with an automatic transmission. Wanted stick, but I wasn't going to pass up the deal I could get on it. Anyways, I used to drive an F-350 power stroke until I needed something better for campus life at Kansas State.

Since I bought the Mazda, I have put 15" steel rims with 31x10.5x15 Mastercraft Courser AT2's on and thats it so far. Absolutely no rubbing anywhere even on full crank. The rims have just enough offset to be clear on stock suspension. I have plans to put a custom receiver hitch I've been building for it, but it is just not finished as well as heavy duty Bilstein shocks for the rear. No need for a spindle lift in the front yet, but we'll see if that ends up happening. I'll get some pictures posted soon.
