    Overlanding skid plates

    Skids My opinion and experience Skid for an overlanding vehicle, should be able to take a decent hit and protect the vehicle without being overkill in the weight or size department. For my tracker and mitsu i NEEDED some protection but i knew i wasn't going to be dragging either rig over the...

    Not too many updates as of late, i have been busy using it rather than building it! It's nice to have a built and maintained to the point where i can get out there and explore without worrying about it on the trail, or the ride home. I did however pick up some heavy duty husky floor mats for...

    PirateMcGee's 2001 Montero Sport 3.5XS

    Great pics! Glad to see its getting some use, a decent set of tires and a locker or two really help these things out, i have been impressed with the capability of mine when i learned how to actually drive it. The best part is keeping with a modest size tire doesn't affect the daily driving...

    plugged cat converter on montero...anyone else?

    Cat Most Cat's have to "light" to result in a good burn of all the nasties. If you have one of those point and shoot thermometers its a pretty easy to see if a cat is lighting off. I'm not sure of the exact temp, but it will be a lot warmer than the rest of the exhaust. Thinking about it...

    Platform I have thought about that too, but the aluminum would have to be pretty thick, and a piece of steel that size would be very heavy, not to mention the $ with both of those options. I have been giving this more and more thought over the past few days. My thoughts: -The cargo area...

    That's probably more work than I'm willing to put into it. I have been thinking about a bolted in platform that would level the cargo area and incorporate a track tie down system. I have seen a few on here do exactly that, and all have used wood, i just question the strength of the wood in...

    My turn. 1995 Montero SR build thread...

    The pre-filters help to screen out dust and fine particulate before it can embed itself in the oiled filter, sort of a safety measure. Back when i lived where there were some big dunes, everyone had them on their bikes/quads/buggies, and that's how it was explained to me. If i lived in a...

    I have looked into it off and on, but never really pursued it with much vigor. If a complete grey setup were to show up at the local junkyard i would probably snag it. It would be nice to have a level cargo area!
