I would like to do the same for a different reason. I want to be able to charge the battery with a solar charger (accessory outlet style) while camped for several days. Any advice would be appreciated.

Japanese Autocare in Rancho Bernardo did my timing belt n associated seals, gaskets n plugs/wires. They are not cheap but I was happy with the work. I talked to the guy quite a while n he knows Montys. There is a member on the FB Montero page that is a mechanic too. He is in Chula Vista. If you...

Thanks, 7 day San Diego to Utah. Truck ran great. Camped out the whole time. Off roaded everywhere. Spent 3 days in the snow. Awesome truck!

I'll be in San Diego end of May. Hit some trails outside of Blyth then work my way to Utah n back. All are welcome to join. Oh, Baja agian in October. Down to Aqua Verde n back, 10 days.

Thanks a bunch guys. Is there a preferred source for silicone hose?

Thought buying silicone hose would be easy. ID, OD, standard, metric! I called NAPA, O'Riellys and CARQUEST in San Diego and they don't have it. They are willing to order it though. Where do you guys buy it? Every thing is a little harder because I'm in Hawaii ordering parts to be delivered to...

Thanks jlocster, (I've enjoyed reading your build thread by the way) I'll order the updated Crank bolt/washer and will return it if not needed. I'll also order the rest. If I lived in Cali I would just take my time. However when I fly in I want to get the job done then off to Moab. Any other...

Hi Gang, I feel like I'm jumping in the deep end here. I have a 1998 Montero with 129K and am buying parts to have a mechanic install. I've read all of the build threads and T-belt related threads and am bewildered. Here is the order from Rock Auto I've compiled. I welcome all comments and...

For anyone looking for info instead of dim remarks I found the lengths on Montero FB. courtesy of Charly Aurelia 1/4 " silicone hose, 2 feet 3/8" silicone hose , 3 feet 5/8" silicone hose , 5 feet

You are right N1, especially easy to measure the hoses behind the water pump, under the plenum and behind the engine. You must have some trick tape measures in Canada.

I want to change out the hoses on my rig. I read a post on the forum that stated how many feet and which diameter hose was needed. I've been searching for hours (using search function) and can't find the post. If the author or anyone remembers please respond. Aloha Andrew

Hi gang, I recently bought a 1998 Montero, 130k miles. I would like to have the timing belt/ water pump, etc. changed. Can anyone recommend a mechanic in the San Diego are that is familiar with Montero's? Aloha Andrew

I'm looking for the same thing.

I'm an idiot! Thanks

Hi gang, I have a new to me 98 Montero. I just bought it and took it on a 14 day adventure down Baja. The truck can go anywhere! The altinator went out and I had it replaced in Baja. The next day the power windows would not work. I changed the power window fuse under the dash, now only the...
