    1997 SR Mastadon Build

    I'm a bit confused reading this statement. Are you saying that the 3.5l \ 3.8l from the Gen 3 trucks won't swap into the 97 - 00 trucks? I think I understand this correctly.

    tablet/ipad for navigation

    OK, probably similar as the one I have (Tab2 A10) , am looking for a refresh. Was wondering if it was a Tab 4 perhaps and how fast it is. The Tab 2 seams to be slowing down a lot.

    quick revised/updated crank bolt question

    Its quite a bit of torque on that bolt. Not sure why they would say 3x is OK. It should be replaced with every timing belt job. Assuming that is the only time the bolt is torqued.

    Buying shocks and struts...

    Just remember if you are paying someone to do the labor for the front shocks, its a bit involved, book rate around 4 hours to do both. So the labor charge will be considerably more $$ than the cost of the springs (in my neighborhood anyways).

    2006 Mitsubishi Montero Limited worth it.

    That seams odd as the recall ended part ways into MY2002 vehicles. Manufactured 12/12/1999 - 6/20/2001.

    2006 Mitsubishi Montero Limited worth it.

    are you thinking just for a PM or do you have some issue? I've got 180K miles on my '05 and I doubt its ever been done. I do have 12 quarts of SP3, and ready to do it once the weather improves (PM only)

    Gen3 Level ride height with OME medium springs?

    I'm pretty sure that the OME 2914 is a bit higher spring rate than stock. They way OME lists that info for the front springs means no additional weight in the front from stock - ie no winch & steel bumper. According to the FSM, stock spring wire diameter is 16.4mm (Limited) and free length of...

    Strength of Gen 3 stock spare tire mount

    Same here. ^^^ I've recently upgraded my spare to match the other 285's on the truck with a small riser added to clear the bumper. Will be testing that with the Trash-a-roo this summer.

    Custom build pop-up camper

    Per lb probably, but cost per foot of "tube" is way more. I wouldn't really care to cost something like this by the lb. Internet pricing example: 80/20 3" x 1.5" x 8' - $85 per stick. 6061 rectangular tube 0.125 wall 3" x 1.5" x 8' - $42 per stick ( I can buy for less I think at a local...

    2nd gen Montero (V20) versus 3rd gen 4Runner

    These are calendar year sales numbers for Monteros in USA. I'd assume that the CY2001 includes some MY2000 (Gen 2.5) vehicles, and the CY2007 are carried over MY2006 (last year MY here) V60 was sold as MY2001 thru MY2006 in USA. CY2007 401 CY2006 1609 CY2005 2778 CY2004 5181...
