Re: How to: Rear disc brake conversion for stock Ranger rear end
For later model Rangers/ Mazdas, noticed that the 2011 Mazda B4000 comes from factory with rear disc brakes. Anyone else pick up on this, and if so, are parts available to adapt prior models?

Re: Grinding noise coming from wheel area. Can't figure out why
No question, it's the wheel hub assembly. As far as I know, bearings can't be replaced - you have to replace the entire assembly.

Re: How can I tell if my truck used to be an automatic?
Check your VIN number - it includes the transmission code. Then refer to your owner's manual if you still have it. If not, probably can find online.
