    The "Az Crew" Thread

    If anyone wants a bullbar/brush guard, I spotted this one on an Isuzu Trooper at the Mesa Pick A Part today. I'm thinking the Trooper and Montero are pretty similar size wise so it should fit, maybe with some adjustments.

    SONICMASD's 97 Montero Build Thread: The General Li

    Making Progress Good weekend, got a lot of random things done on the Montero. 1. Rear Cargo Handle replaced. I bought a replacement handle on eBay for around $25 shipped (tip: search for "tailgate handle" instead of "rear door" or "cargo door", etc.) The steps to replace this piece are...

    SONICMASD's 97 Montero Build Thread: The General Li

    A few updates 1. I took the running boards off last weekend - wow what a difference! 17" of clearance on the sides now! 2. Went to a junk yard near me that had a 95 SR and scored the following: • Gen 2 center gauge cluster (compass, inclinometer, altimeter) • Power Mirror...

    SONICMASD's 97 Montero Build Thread: The General Li

    Good price - thanks for the tip. I'm holding out hope that I can find a replacement driver's side armrest and then buy sideless seat covers so I can utilize the armrests.

    I went to the junk yard because one near me had a 95 but its ABS sensor was gone. I'm going to go check out another yard with 3 more Monteros and will keep an eye out for you.

    Solid beeping Noise from Behind the dash

    I hope you get it figured out that would be super annoying! BTW - what tires are you running and how do you like them in snow?

    Hey Grandpa, did you go with the regular or the extended super sliders?

    underside pictures of mounting your rock sliders

    I'm going to be ordering Super Sliders soon. One thing that I'm curious about is if they can be mounted differently if you have a body lift so that there is not a much bigger gap between them and the body. Given that they are bolt-on, I doubt it. Anyone with Super Sliders know?

    Where is this oil leak coming from?

    Good tip - i will get the PCV done ASAP. Im at the shop now and they are saying that its not even oil, that it is a power steering hose leak so thats good news. On the other hand it makes me wonder where the oil is going if it is not leaking out and here I was thinking the valve stem seals...

    Where is this oil leak coming from?

    I'm taking the General Li in for it's first oil change tomorrow and tonight I took off the skid plates to make finding the oil leak easier. So where do you guys think this leak is coming from? It would be good to have other opinions before the shop looks at it tomorrow. - No smoke out of...

    The "Az Crew" Thread

    Sounds like a ton of work Johnny B, but it also sounds like you enjoy wrenching on Monteros. The front brakes on my new Montero are in need of work and I hope they are not as far gone as Jorge's because I've never worked on brakes before and am hoping it is just pads. Sent from my iPhone...

    Monteros on craigslist

    Here is one in Phoenix, AZ. I spoke with the seller when he first posted it a few weeks ago and here's what I got: - 2" body lift, 5 33x12.5R15 BFG AT tires, salvage title from small fender bender (rear ended with no real damage other than cracked paint) - This is when he was asking 3k. Then a...

    cigarette lighter not working 1999 montero 4x4

    Yep, me too in my 97. The hold switch next to it doesnt work either and if there are supposed to be lights on the shifter they dont work either. I also checked the fuse and found that there wasnt even one there. So i plugged in a 15amp and it still doesnt work. Thats as far as ive messed with it...

    Well, i havent had much time this week but i got a few tiny things done. 1. So Cal Biker stickers removed A razor blade and a few squirts of LPS1 and they were gone. 2. Seat rips taped - this will do until I find the world's finest-cheapest seat covers 3. Fancy Japanese bug wing removed...

    The build of Abigail. 1996 Montero SR

    Haha, that's funny because I was just going to post asking what the normal Oil psi should be but now I guess it doesn't matter so much if I have no way of checking it. It is pretty funny how you have to drive around in a circle to reset the Compass. My Explorer doesn't require that and its...
