    Retreads...and 3rd Gen tire/lift preferences

    Ditch the spacers. You will need a little lift for 285/75R16 (I have these). I went with ARB/OME medium springs and like them. They raise the truck about 1.5" from stock. I have KYBs in the front of mine & Bilsteins in the rear. Can't wait to swap out the KYBs in the front and replace with...

    Retreads...and 3rd Gen tire/lift preferences

    Mitsubishi Pajero diesel from Europe?

    Montero Parts Thread?

    unless you have moved the engine out of the power band. Plus you are humping around a lot more tire weight, rolling resistance and have raised your rolling brick higher in the air for more air resistance.

    Front Differential Installation

    They are slipper pigs. I've use the He-Man method twice, and preparing for the 3rd truck. I'm getting older, not really looking forward to this one. Good luck. Might help to have a second person.

    Buyer Beware - Flipped Sportsmobile for Sale

    I don't get the flipper alert thing. The value of an item is set on the agreement in the transfer price between the seller and buyer. The normal procedure since the dawn of time. Big deal if the current seller got the vehicle for a great price. Geez Kind of like your best friend dating your...
