Ceiling Cargo Net 9/13/16: Wow, this build thread is finally caught up with real life, thanks for hanging in there! Over the Labor Day trip to Sedona, I noticed when laying in bed that it would be nice to have more storage room. There are certain things that you want handy, like your pants...

9/03/16-9/04/16: So with Labor Day weekend just a day away, I asked my wife if we should do anything special? She said, "let go camping in Sedona", ok, you don't have to twist my arm! We left Phoenix around 11am on Saturday, drove straight to Broken Arrow Trail and had an awesome time. This was...

8/31/16: Time to install my custom sleeping platform. I decided to open up the rear panels and remove the 3rd row seat belts. I went back and forth on just leaving them in even though there is a 99% chance I will never need them. But in the end, I decided it would be too weird to have them just...

Got it, looking forward to your build updates.

Search "shifter" and a couple threads with photos of the correct position will come up. Or check out my Build thread for the link and pics. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

done. thx

At the end of my July roadtrip to Idaho, I stopped at Rocky Road Outfitters just outside of Salt Lake City and picked up my new set of Supersliders. Even though these sliders are more expensive then the Trail Gear option, I decided to go with them because acording to the description they are...

Done, thx

Added 3 more Gen 3 builds to the list today.

got it, thanks!

I've noticed that the original sticky hasn't been updated in 4 years so I decided to create this one. This thread will be limited to Monteros only, no Sports, and only links to ExPo. Please post your build threads below and I'll get them added! ENJOY! GEN 1 (1982-1991) "Pajero Mk1 Tourer...

8/15/16: I'm down to the last main issue with the vehicle that existed when I bought it: cracked passenger side exhaust manifold. So I took a chance and ordered this Chinese one off ebay for $60. I inspected it when it arrived and other than one small pit on the mounting surface it looks okay...

I couldn't handle the stock sleeping set up of folding musical chairs (too used to my 96 Explorer which folds completely flat) and their weird height levels so I built a sleeping platform in my Gen 2/2.5. Yes, it is awesome that Mitsu did this rather than nothing though, and if you are a small...

I just realized that a couple other things took place in June that I forgot to post about: 1. After getting the new tie rod ends and idler arm installed I took it to a shop and had them do an alignment. I also had them replace the fuel filter and transmission filter. I provided them with the...

8/7/16: Yes, I know we're going backwards in time a bit but while one thing is being worked on, another is as well. I decided that running the 35/13.50R15s that came on the vehicle when I bought it was overkill for me since I'm mostly an overlander and not a rock crawler. After a lot of research...

Thanks man! I've found that when I first get a vehicle that is the time to go balls-to-the-wall on the cleaning and little tidbits that don't work. Because after a few months of getting used to it, I stop caring and rarely get around to those sort of projects.

8/10/16 Continued: While I had the center console apart I took the opportunity to install a RAM Mount Cup Holder. There isn't an amazing place anywhere in the Montero to put this but I saw someone else on here used this location and I agree that it is probably the least intrusive spot...

8/3/16: I didn't really do any work on Betty in July because I spent most of it on a road trip. Went from Phoenix up to the Sawtooth Mountains in Idaho then over to Jackson, WY and back down. I went with my buddy in his 2015 4Runner and this sketchy 1958 camper that he bought for $300: As...

Ya, I have the factory flashlight, just hoping to find something that I don't have to plug in and hold, etc. I do like that flashlight though, great Mitsu idea.

I love the idea of adding 1 of those 4" lights on each side of the cargo area, I just wish they had on/off switches in case you wanted to turn them off separately. I'll have to see what I can find. Thx for the link!
