Thx guys, interesting that over here ppl seem to think the factory points are fine and on overseas pajero forums everyone swears that these points are too weak/dangerous to snatch with (especially in the front). I'm going to remove the rear loop pictured and inspect the back of it, i heard...

3/1/16 - Scored an awesome deal on 5 BFG KM2s on Craigslist. I'll get them mounted very soon! 3/2/16 - Spent a couple hours addressing some random things: 1. Got the rear cargo light working, just needed a new LED bulb (the one that I just put in last week was defective). 2. The driver's...

When you've used these points did you hook a shackle up to them? Also, congrats on the Evo!

If you want it disabled permanently you can pull out the ABS relay I believe.

You can call Pluck A Part in Tempe, AZ - They have a 94 and they pull the engines and trannys out of all their vehicles when they arrive and then sell them complete/separately.

Seems like everyone has custom bumpers with recovery points, but for those of us that are still running stock bumpers - what can we use as a recovery point? Rear - Is this strong enough for a snatch strap? Front - The two hooks in the front look pretty weak, probably just for securing the...

Congrats! What'd you have to do to have the owner deliver it personally? Pay for gas and a return flight?

2/27/16 - New Calipers and Brake hoses done! A note to all Gen2 Owners - All parts catalogs are wrong when it comes to the Brake Hoses. Autozone, Oreilly, Napa, Rock Auto, they all show 2 different hose part #s for the front and the rear. Meaning you need 8 hoses to do the job because each...

2/20/16: continued - after buttoning up the front i took it around the neighborhood and the brakes work great, no pulsating. There does seem to be a new vibration, almost like driving over a bad road (bump....bump.....bump) It might just be my hyper sensitive imagination or it could have to do...

Another weekend of wrenching: 2/20/16: Front Brakes! The car had been pulsating pretty bad when braking and it felt like it was coming mostly from the drivers side. So after a ton of research and buying the Mitsu locknut socket for $55 on ebay I decided to give it a shot (never done brakes...

Ya, what did the other guy look like after running into that ARB?! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I cant answer your fluid question but what you're describing is typical of any AT that gets new fluid after its old fluid was left in for too long. Was your old fluid changed at the proper service interval or was it late? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Rear door probably just needs a new outside handle - they are plastic and break very easily. See my build thread for more details. If the door locks are bouncing back to lock right away when you press unlock then that is also an easy fix. I just did mine and will post the procedure this week on...

Having an extra car came in handy this week. My wife's Explorer's AC wasn't working and it's getting into the 80s/90s already in PHX so she took the Montero to work while I spent the day fixing the AC. Turned out to not be an AC problem after all, the blend door had broken and was stuck on full...

Special Tool: Locknut Socket - required to remove and more importantly, properly retorque the locknut and preload the bearings when doing front brake work. Part No. MB-990954 Price: Around $90 new, found this one on ebay for $55. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

That was awesome! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Not much going on here, just a few small updates: 1. I got the interior cleaned - it was absolutely filthy. Probably took me a solid 5-6 hours of work. I'm not worried about getting it perfect because it's a 19 year old vehicle and strictly an overland toy. Here's a before and after shot of...

Many thanks! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hi Guys, When I removed my knee guard trim below the dash I noticed a few wires that are not plugged in. #1. 4 pin square connector, that plugs in to a large metal box just above the left front speaker, just to the left and in front of the power window relay board. This same box has 2 other...
