The '93 and newer Ford Ranger is designed by Ford and uses the engines and trannies Ford specifies. The Mazda is identical in almost all areas except certain portions of the body and trim and some minor changes to the interior. Virtually all the engine, and transmission parts interchange perfectly. I have seen lots of Mazdas around here with aftermarket headlights and tailights. I suspect that they are interchangeable with the Rangers of the Same years. I am pretty sure the headlights are different. Why would you want to replace the headlights. The OEM headlights are designed to meet certain safety specs. And the lift kits will work on the Mazda just fine.

 

Just normally when you change the headlights out with Projection headlights, or black housed headlights, still oem. Mainly i was looking to change the tail lights and get a lift kit. Anyone know where you can get a lift kit for an 03-04 mazda b4000?

1994- on USA Mazda trucks are for the most part(S) nothing near a clone of Ford Rangers of the same year(s). Sure you will find a part or three that are interchangeable. It is very misleading to say these vehicles are clones. Only example I'm going to give , is this, because it encompasses so many different parts of both vehicles: I had the unfortunate experience of having my 2004 Mazda stolen and stripped of many things. The thieves cut my wiring harness in a few places to get at whatever! So in my search for a replacement harness, I checked out the 'exact' Ford Ranger 'clones'....and the wiring harness's could not have been more different and un adaptable to my Mazda. In order to replace my harness on my Mazda, I had to find the exact same model Model , made in the same factory, the same month and during the same campaign. Btw My 2004 Mazda , base model, regular cab (2 door) RWD, automatic, no power features such as windows, etc., with A/C was put together in New Jersey, The tail lights are not interchangeable with a Ford Ranger. Horrible advice to give anyone looking to fix their Mazda. I respect you for trying to help, but the 2004 Mazda B2300 and the 2004 Ford ranger share almost nothing intrinsically mechanical or electrical with each other.

 

bc the b2300 is a mazda japan the b3000 and b4000 or american ford

 

the manual transmissions are also all mazda where autos are all ford after 94 so hes semi correct
