Yes, of course. Regional distributors will always honor the territory of their colleagues in other regions. Just like you can't order from Amazon.ca if you live in the States.

This just showed up on Craigslist, and I am dead certain that it won't last long at all. I've already soiled myself lusting over it.... http://bellingham.craigslist.org/cto/3650639846.html

I'm considering this exact setup and would just use schedule 80 abs. But we're talking about columnar strength, not bending strength. Realistically, sch 40 should be plenty strong.

Regarding the tire thing... My Gen III is also my "family car" and daily driver (well, my motorcycle is actually the daily vehicle, but the Monty is my primary 4-wheel vehicle). My wife and I do the exact same thing you're talking about: trips of 1000+ miles once or twice a year, some with our...

Several years ago I was shopping for a Gen III. Of course, they're not overly common and, as was said, the price varies widely by region. I saved several thousand dollars by flying to Las Vegas for a fly-n-drive. Of course, I've done over a half-dozen long-distance vehicle purchases between...

He must know exactly what he has there. There are lots of used axles for sale all over the country, and plenty of them are listed in "A" condition and quite inexpensive. I know that the gear ratio is stamped on the firewall; is the problem that, once the vehicle is parted out, there's no...

Mitsubishi vehicles were never properly marketed to the American consumer. The Monteros have been very popular trucks in other countries, where they're variously known as Pajeros or Shoguns. Any vehicle that achieves cult status as an icon in the minds of the public will always carry a premium...

I like the simple, clean look; no reason to add a ****pile of bulk and weight if you don't need it! Those corners are great steps! I'd envision a patch of non-skid paint or a non-skid adhesive in that corner area. Of course, I live in the Pacific NorthWet.... Nicely done. I'm looking forward...

As I posted in another thread, I'd go for a high-mileage rig that was well cared for than a low-mileage Monty that had been neglected. Of course, YMMV.

The ad clearly states that it carries a locker in the back; must have already been swapped for the SR axle. Looks great to me!

Damn you! It's gorgeous. Envy. Yes, I admit it. :drool:

As the owner of a fleet of ambulances for the past 20 years, I can say that the Type I (truck chassis) would be my absolute last choice if I were looking at buying one for personal use. Yes, they're easier to work on, but that is far outweighed by how damned uncomfortable they are. They drive...

This is kind of tough, and depends upon who owned it prior to you showing up. I'm also looking at Gen 2.5s, and have driven a fair number of them. I looked at one recently that had only 130K on the clock and it looked very, very nice. Brand new tires, no scrapes or evidence of ever having been...

AFAIK, the "generation" thing is for the Montero, not for the Sport.

If you haven't already done so, just look through the Montero Sport picture thread at the beginning of this section. You'll see plenty of folks who have lifted them and can easily PM another member to ask questions.

Yeah, the notorious flashing lights. Google this and you'll find just a ton of information on it. First things first. The light that never lit up is clearly burned out. They're little incandescent lamps and they burn out all the time. I replaced mine with LEDs and all is well. Second, the...

I've seen more interesting Gen 2.5s on the east coast recently than out west. There have been a few in North Carolina and Georgia over the past several months that looked very nice. Also, I wouldn't eliminate the Y2K models from my search. If you're specifically interested in that rear locker...

Kinda tough to make any such recommendations for you. Define "local."

I'll take it! PM sent....

...not to mention the effect that they have on the poor Monty's already anemic performance....
