Got my girlfriend a 94 Mazda Navajo with 159,890k on it. My question is, would it be worth modifying(window tint, MAYBE 2" lift). Its straight looking, underside isnt too rusty. Its got rot on the rockers, which is cover by a piece of plastic trim. Im not trying to replace motor/trans or any bullshat, so...
Is anybody running a modded navajo/ex with a stock drivetarin with higher miles? Pics if you are!

I'd deff. say its worth it. Stock drivetrain aint that bad.
 






I have a 94 ex with over 180,000 miles on it, the tranny however was rebuilt about 2,000 miles ago. It has a 4 inch suspension lift and stock 3.23 gears pulling 33s. The only thing upgraded were the brakes to be able to stop the extra weight.
 






if the tranny is fine, I'd say do it. With a 2 inch lift you're only gonna be running 31s I believe so you won't loose to much power.
 






Is there a good budget 2" lift? i know i should search, but since you mentioned it...lol
 


















yeah you should do mods on her navajo
 






ive got 170k on mine and just did a full exhaust, 2" lift and other stuff. the tranny is the weak link in the older ones. on the bright side rebuilds arent that expensive. mine has really bad rockers and a very leaky sunroof but other than that its mint. almost no rust underneith and none on the body. thinking about a body lift too.
 






budget lift? im selling a 2in coil spacer for up front (TTB) and a 1.5 AAL lft for rer leafs for 40 bux plus shippin..PM me
