Hey Everyone, I'm new here and this is a first post for me. I have had my montero for a little over a year now. Over this time I have done a few modifications to the rig, and will continue doing so until she's where I want her. Here are some pictures of what the truck throughout this last year
When I first got the truck it had a factory push bar, I removed it and fabricated my own. Here is the turnout, a little heavy for my liking and I will most likely change it up in the near future
Snow drifting in these suvs is too much fun
I wanted more storage and the ability for a roof-rack tent setup. So I Fabbed up a roof rack with a hi-lift mount, turned out extremely strong. Not the lightest rack but Its held 500 plus lbs on it no problem
The rock sliders and front bumper were fabricated using steel from an unused gym set I had in my back yard haha
the sliders are pretty beefy. I've nailed rocks directly on them and the only damage was missing paint. Eventually I'll redo the sliders and bumper with a "lighter weight" mindset, as the current ones are quite heavy
My tires had taken a beating throughout the year, and it was time for some new shoes. I had bought a set of wheels off a friend for 40$ 10.5x15 inch with a deeper offset. I wanted the stance to be a little more aggressive so these wheels were perfect. Went to discount tire and had some new 33x12.5x15 wrangler duratrac mts put on. What do you think of the new stance? Feels really nice on the trail and a little less " tippy " feeling on hard flexing terrain
Removed the rear bumper, and started on chopping my rear quarters. Will be fabricating a new rear bumper here shortly, along with a rack ladder so I don't have to bust my hump getting up on my rack lol. Will post more pics with updates on snorkel install, 2" coil spacer install, custom exhaust and rack tent setup whoop whoop let some more fun begin!
