    Pitchblack Rally Recce Raider Build

    How much thought went into your light bar selection? I’ve been thinking of adding some LED’s for a while now, but I see too many different versions on other vehicles and I can’t decide what I really need.

    CAUTION/AVOID Adventure Driven Designs in AZ

    The guy spent $100 of his time typing the post.......so now he is out closer to $200 total by my calculation. I may have been more receptive to the story if it was condensed into tweet length. I will say though, it seems to be the most entertaining thing to show up here in a long time. Seriously...

    1996 Montero sr thermostat housing... and revival

    I’d try drilling them out first. Drill it, then spray it with penetrating oil, then use a mini butane torch to heat it while you try and turn it out with an easy out.....I love those little torches because they allow you precise control of where you are adding the heat. Not sure how tight your...

    Brake proportioning valve

    Thanks......now I’m thinking about mine again......many years ago I tried sourcing a new one and never found one. I never did understand exactly how it works, I thought that as the truck squats more under increased weight, it shifts breaking power to the rear......I think. Anyway keep us posted...

    Pajero Mk2 SWB MIVEC Build

    I guess that makes sense, I’ve never needed to have the length though since you can just use year-make-model-motor at the auto parts store. I’d be afraid of a deer in the headlights response at my local store if I walked in and only gave them a belt length hahaha. Thanks.

    Rocker panel replacement 2.5 gen

    I’m in the Midwest, I filled my rockers with foam 3 years ago.....you won’t win the war against rust but you can slow it down. I paint mine every year with a rattle can and forget about it. It doesn’t stop me from doing whatever I want to do with my truck. I put the foam in while I still had...

    Airbag Recall Letter from Mitsu

    I see where Kapow is coming from.....I already made my investment into keeping my rig around for a while, so too late for me. I’m not sure how I would feel about driving it around and using it the way I do now if it didn’t have an airbag. This is a good question for other members......how many...

    Airbag Recall Letter from Mitsu

    Probably fear of a mandatory buyback, which I have never heard of before. I can’t believe the dealership is going to take your keys from you without your consent, cut you a check and scrap your truck. A vehicle is personal property.
