Hello everyone,
I've had my Shogun almost 2 years now. It's a 2005 3.2 DID LWB. I bought it on 158,000 miles, it's now on 210,000 miles. I bought it in England and drove it over to Finland, where I live. I run a northern lights chasing company in the very far north of Lapland, around 70°N latitude. We experience down to -40 temps here and it is pretty much below 0°c for 5 months of the year. I wanted an older, more mechanical 4x4 as electronics don't do too well in the cold. This is my second winter with the Shogun and I am utterly impressed with it as a cold climate vehicle. It cold starts in -25 no problem!
Things I have done to it are;
Painted stock alloys black (and got chrome nuts)
Fitted 25mm wheel spacers
Fitted front A-bar and 3 x 80w Lumina Lights (LED) - 8000 lumens, each. 24,000 lumens in total.
Fitted 220v engine block heater and 220v cabin heater
Fitted Nokian LT2 285/75 16 studded tyres.
Since this pic was taken, I've had a full Old Man Emu suspension kit fitted (+40mm lift all round, about 1.5 inches.). The original suspension was so tired and sagging, the OME suspension felt more like a 3 inch lift!
I also have new wheels and tyres on order, considerably bigger than the ones on now. So we'll see how that goes when i get them. I don't off-road per-se. But I do have wilderness plots of land that I need access to, in varying degrees of condition. The distances are so vast and it is so time consuming driving to them, I can't get to a plot of land turn around if it's not accessible. I have to access it. So the reason I want ground clearance and big footprint is for driving unplowed roads, or simply getting over snowdrifts. It's also used for towing everything, from vehicles out of snowbanks (including the Norwegian army!), and my tractor 1300km at the start and end of every winter.
Cheers,
Tony

They are called a spare tire jack mount and can be found online, google will pull up the details.

Recently bought my first car. It's in tip-top shape other then a slight alignment issue.
I'm a grad student so I dont have any money to turn it into an overland rig yet, but I should be able to slowly build it up over the next 2-3 years. I'll try to get better photos eventually. The ones I took with my phone really dont do it justice.

Wow, some great vehicles in this thread. Though shalt not covet thy neighbor's Monty.
Couple of pics below were taken on a recent outing to SW Florida's Picayune Preserve. My boy led the way in his tricked-out 2001 XJ. My (new to me) 2001 Montero XLS impressed us all. She's not there yet but we're refining things little by little with the goal of making her a competent expedition vehicle. Great forum here and a helpful community that I'm glad I found.

Love all these monteros! 3rd gens outfitted are really sweet. Here's my 1993 base model 6G72 w/auto. I've owned the truck for about 3 years and have done a ton of work to it. Fix numerous oil leaks, new wheels and tires, 2.5" old man emu lift and HD torsion bars.
