    Looking for a locker

    Yea, I do this for a living, not the "Chinese copy" thing, but make stuff for cars, OEM, globally. I spend at least 3 months a year in and out of various countries in Asia over the past 20 years and even lived there working in this capacity for a portion of it a few years back. What I meant...

    Looking for a locker

    If the LS is a 3.0l, it would most likely have a 9" ring gear. It might be possible to source the 3rd member and axles from a '92 or '93 SR which also had 3.0l engines. The '94 and later SRs had 3.5l engines and 9.5" rear ring gears, they don't interchange unless the entire wheel to wheel...

    School Me on Rear Differentials - Gen 3 Montero

    Interesting. I don't see the marks (N) for the sleeves and bearings for the Gen 2 Locker (I'm in the middle of putting once together is why the reference). The (N) is on the pinion nut, pinion seal and copper crush washers for the locker air line only. Maybe Mitsu changed the sleeve in the...

    Why Mitsubishi doesn't import Montero sport?

    Interesting. I spend considerable time in Thailand each year and have never seen a gas version. But they also have less tax on the trucks with diesels, so probably nobody buys a gas version. Also, the diesel engine over there won't be using DEF, and it's simply not a bolt on. I see the 3.0 l...

    Why Mitsubishi doesn't import Montero sport?

    Oh so many reasons. #1 - American's in general don't like diesels (soccer mom class vehicles) . So far this is the only power plant option in the latest generation Pajero Sport which I assume you are referencing.

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

    I ran 235s (BFG A/T KO) for about 35K miles on my '05 and hated every mile. Truck handled way too squirly. Previously to those I have had 265/75R17 (Falken Wild Peak) for 45K and currently have 285/75R16 (BFG A/T KO2) on the truck for approximately 10K. With the wider tires the truck feels...
