ZF Swap
Finally landed me a ZF 5 speed transmission. After a good cleaning it's lookin very nice.
The tcase already removed showing the backside of the Mazda transmission.
The Old tranny unbolted and ready to be pulled away.
The offending mazda slushbox removed, glad to see it out.
Comparison shot, ZF on left, mazda on right.. Big difference.
The ZF bolted up to the engine and the tcase bolted back up, finally comming togeather.

Dude nice swap check out mine. The reason your tires is to close to the front of the fender Is bacause the shackle kit moves if 1 to 1.5 inches forward and the block kit does the same. The block has a angle cut at the bottom which moves the axle closer. If you cut the block striaght it should take care of your problem. I don`t think sky manufacturing intended for them to be used with a block kit. Other wise nice truck. I wish I could put a 9 inch in my truck but I have the fricken Speedometer cable to the 8.8 which they started in 94 my only other option for a stronger axle is a sterling but there 8 lugs.
