    JDM Mitsubishi Delica JB500 camper body on L300 truck chassis build

    A RHD Deli I can understand. There are windows on the LH side of that vehicle. An RV thou? Can't get a grip, your LH side is completely blocked and your mirrors are really small. RV's suck to begin with for traffic merging and general visibility rearward. now move the driver to the right...

    ON the fly adjustable shocks

    I have them (KYB G-a-J) on '88 and '93 - perfectly fine. Never put them in a Gen 3 thou, harsh as heck in these.

    Wow, RHD - visibility would be shockingly compromised in a LHD country.

    03-06 Montero or 06-09 forester

    Do Suby engines even last past 100K miles? I'm joking, I owned one years back. Not remotely comparable to a Montero.

    2001 Montero XLS - Need an Engine - Chicago Area

    Oh I certainly wouldn't give advise on finances. You must be set dropping $10K (min) on a shop retrofitted 1Uzfe swap into a vehicle when complete will net you $6K max. Passion! There is no headroom (yet) in Monteros. Its not like dropping a $10K swap into an early 80 series or 60 series...

    Friend selling his salvage Tacoma, considering buying it. Should I?

    If you plan to put it back on the road, some insurance companies won't insure it with a salvage title, and of course some will. Just be aware of that.

    Rebuilding Current OEM Seats vs. Buying Aftermarket - 80 Series Land Cruiser

    I had seats in 2 different Monteros professionally recovered in leather and would do it again in a heartbeat. Key for the foam was to find a good used passenger side bottom to swap as they hardly get used comparative to the driver side (Montero manual seat bottom foams are the same side to side...

    Need a rear 4.3....

    www.car-part.com - find one local or from one of the big JYs like LKQ - they typically have shipping costs negotiated with freight carriers and are much cheaper than an individual trying to ship something.

    Looking to Buy a GEN III

    What year in college? My daughter is a junior and still avoiding a car there. PIA to park at her apartment, extra cost for parking space, impossible to drive or park on campus. She bikes, walks or buses about everywhere. I'd do everything possible to avoid sending a vehicle.
