1991 Mazda B2600 4x4 review from North America
"Too many miles? Never!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
This vehicle has been through the woods and back more than a few times.. so I have to give it a chance.
While rocking out of a mud hole, the fifth-reverse hub in the transmission sheared its splines in the main-shaft! In the process of repair, but not fun.
Leaf spring U-bolts are loose.
Oil leaks out everywhere.
General comments?
For the miles, this truck is still a good buy. For what I paid, I can spend a little to fix it up and end up with a nice rust free 4x4 that makes people say "how many???" when I tell them how many miles she has.
For freeway use, I would have to replace the engine, it is just too worn to maintain highway speeds. Lucky for me I am not near a freeway!
