So, here's a question for everyone. Where do you get your used parts from? I always try to keep my ear to the ground for any local monteros, but being in the south, they are few and far between -- specifically Gen 3s. I'm fixing to start hunting for a 3.8l engine and transmission for my Gen 3 so...

Alright, I've got the dumb question of the day. I was driving the Gen3 this morning, and while I was sitting at the drive-thru, I noticed the temp gauge started creeping up. Kept an eye on it, and sure enough, it hit that dreaded H mark. I shut her off while we waited for our food (maybe 2...

Alright folks, another random question. What have y'all done for recovery points? I'm looking at adding a few to the front, but I'd also like to keep my stock bumper. Pictures are more than welcomed!

I'm going to ask this one more time to confirm it before I royally screw up. If I install aftermarket crossbars (Yakima, Thule, Etc), will that be sufficient to carry and use a roof top tent as long as the bars meet the spec requirements? Last thing I want is for the whole rack system to pull...

Looking to take a RTT off someone's hands in our area. We're in Chattanooga, TN, so we can feasibly drive anywhere in AL/GA/TN. Trying to get something good for under $800. Let me know what you've got!

Less than $15,000! So, my daily driver and I were in a little accident last week, and now I'm on the hunt for a new vehicle. Thankfully, I got the "Okay" from my lady to get us another expedition vehicle to go along with our Montero. If anyone is in the southeast US, preferably southeast TN or...

Alright guys, I need some help. My 05 Montero started misfiring a few weeks ago. It threw a cylinder 6 misfire code, so I pulled the coil and sure enough, it was dead. Got a new one shipped to me the next day (Because I didn't bother checking the others, like an idiot), put her in, and she fired...

Howdy, folks! Long time creeper, occasional poster here. I figured it was time to join the ranks of you regulars and make an actual build thread. Project Outlaw III started out with us just needing a good, cheap 4x4 to carry us from our little home Tennessee all the way down to Argentina, but...

Alright, guys. I'll be doing my timing belt job this weekend, and I want to make sure I have all of the required parts. What I have is bellow: Front & Rear Crank Seal (Just wanted the front, but accidentally bought the rear, too) 2 x Front Cam Seals (Since I hear these leak the most) Serpentine...

Hey folks, I'm drawing up a couple different designs for an interior bed platform for my Gen 3. I've seen or read about a bunch of different ones that you guys have all done, so I figured I'd ask y'all a couple questions. First: What kind of design did you go for? Function, comfort, look, all...

Hey folks, I'm looking at buying some cross bars for my Monty. I've seen a few great looking racks on the different builds, but I figured it'd be nice to have a thread dedicated to all the different roof racks y'all have come up with! So let's see them set ups! For the time being, I'm looking...

Out of curiousity, anyone know if the 3.8l has the same issue with the crank bolt that the 3.5l had? Should I look at replacing it during the timing belt install?

So, I've had my Gen 3 for about 3 weeks now. When I bought it, the previous owner had put brand new brakes and rotars on both front and back. I know they did because they had receipts and I watched the shop finish up the front. Anyway, yesterday, we started getting a really loud grinding sound...

I've seen a lot of debate over this here on the forums, and I figured that having a single thread would make it easier to keep track of. So, what size tires is everyone running on their Gen3? I'm needing new ones soon, and I've heard that these trucks are a bit picky on tires. My family is...

Alright guys, I've been lurking for a while now. My lady and I have been casually looking for either a Land Cruiser or Gen 3 Montero for a while now, but we really hadn't found anything within our price range that was worth it. Well, her Subaru decided to self-detonate, so we took it as a sign...

Good, god, what a beauty. Not mine, but I wish it was. :Wow1: https://chattanooga.craigslist.org/cto/6073934349.html

Hey guys, another random question for you. I've found a decent 02 Montero. It's a 2 owner truck, has had the timing belt done recently, with most of the maintenance records from this owner available. It's got 160kicked miles, and they only want $2,500 for it. Buuuuut, and isn't there always a...

https://atlanta.craigslist.org/atl/cto/6061685100.html No affiliation, but it seems decently priced.

Saw this gem on craigslist. No affiliation. I did text back and forth with the person, and he was very helpful and forthcoming with information. I'd actually be interested, but I'm a little worried about the extensiveness of the rust. What do you guys think...
