Got the truck back it's been doing pretty good. Seems to stutter here and there when in 3rd gear I believe. It's always done this so no worse than before I guess. Took it out and about this weekend.

Got extenders for the rack so I have proper clearance Pretty nice. Also there is a gen 1 for sale locally really cheap. It runs but has a leak. It has a snorkel and the alloys. If someone is looking for parts or want to go in on it I would be willing as I would like a few things off it

Went to the pull apart and grabbed a few things. Non bent grab bar, Smaller Mirrors. The mirrors will have to be drilled and mounted as mine are much different. Bummer and pain in the *** but hopefully they look the part and don't make noise as mine do now.

Today I took the monty to the local aamco. They have a good rep on google etc. So I said Fuggit. Comes with warranty too. So they are going to replace the pan, shift shaft seal and hoses. Comes out to 550$ bones. This is with all factory part too. I feel like its reasonable considering the...

More pics. Of the Monty and my winter grass :(

Well it's been a minute. Still leaking but plan on having that fixed real soon. In the mean time I finally got a rack. Used the yakima 1a towers with some coated gas pipe from lowes. Way cheaper than yakimas 80$ 58 bars and I had them cut to size. 54". The coated pipe is the exact fit. It's...

Till I find a proper roof rack here is how I'm rolling.

dude come over to 4x4wire dot com and sign up and get in touch with the AZcrew forums. Great collection of montero enthusiats here in AZ, mostly greater Phoenix area. These guys have been there and done that when it comes to these trucks and always have great advice.. I think we are slowly...

ok after removing the cross bar from underneath the tranny, I can see the problem areas. I cleaned it up really good and use engine cleaner down there. First things first, the bolts for the tranny pan were very loose. most specifically on the shallow end. I could if needed loosen with my...

More pics I took this morning. Cell phones pics.

Yes!! THats men looking. More pics please!!

Oooo I wanted to see how a tinted white one would look like. Sweet. Now I must tint. Sweet.

Here are those pics I said I would take. Being new to 4x4 and off road. I wasn't sure how much a 32 or 33 would effect this slow *** truck already. So I decided to play it safe. I like the way 33s look or even 35s but I honestly don't think ill ever have real use of such a large wheel...

I'll take some later for you.

One note. My shocks were so bad I could barely drive it. A bump would feel like the truck was going to break in half. Now it feels as tight as my wife's Acura. Not overly tight but like a newer car. Really smooth. The tires helped a ton also. My buddy has a set of rear springs from a 97 I...

Thanks. My friends call it a poor man g wagen. I went with the kyb gas adjust. Spent about 140$ installed in about 6 hours because I painted my wheels semi gloss black. Also put on new black lugs. Rear shocks were super easy. Front were a little tricky but looking back still easy. I don't...

I finally got my tires on and my shocks put in. I did it on pictured dirt and in 115 heat. Not fun. It was like rolling a churro in sugar and cinnamon. With the sweat and all. Want be doing that again. Definitely going to copy the bumper idea from above. Did you treat it with anything? Looks...

Anyone know where I can source these mirrors? They are definitly not OEM The little scrappy things are worn cracked or broke. I like the size a visibility.

Yeah after looking. At the guide I feel confident it's the transfer case. Now I just gotta find out exactly where. Looks like ill be busy this weekend.

More pics Before wiping After wiping Now I need to find the source. This looks to be a transmission mount but the leak should be from from near by. It is dripping down to the larger trans support underneath. More pics that may help I hope this make some sense.
