Are you talking about rebuilding the engine that is currently in the truck? Doubt that would work too well being you said there were metal and oil bits all over the road. Sounds like you ventilated the block which isn't a good thing - nor rebuildable.

My SWB '88 cruises along at highway speed without shakes. Power becomes an issue. Not very aero. All the steering components have been replaced / rebuilt as well as the front wheel bearings within the last 5K miles or so - so its tight.

some Gen 2 SRs and some Gen 2.5 Endeavor Editions need to check for the stickers and pump. Its not clear cut really. My '93 SR did not come factory with a locker & my '92 was retrofitted for instance. Can be retrofitted in all. Gen 3 option would be an ARB. There were also in some Montero...

Wrong Washington, no affiliation. Factory rear air locker and locking transfer case. Slap on a set of 33" tires - no lift needed. There is your $5k. http://washingtondc.craigslist.org/mld/cto/4758940519.html

I'd look for a '98 - '00 Montero - but thats just me...

Certainly should fit

ditto

Can you see it coming out from under the plastic timing belt cover? If so, sounds like a cam seal. If this is the case, make sure to slap in another new timing belt if its wet from oil. Oil is not so good for them.

Looks like you have a power seat on the driver side. Agreed - those sit terrible after the foam wears out. The manual seats with good foam are actually quite comfortable.

adding heat to the seats isn't too bad of an upgrade. I put in kits from Amazon in both the '92 & '93. About $50 for each truck to do the front buckets. 12F this morning. Glad I did the upgrade, especially after returning from Bangkok yesterday - Was 95F there.

Not really sure what would be different between a RHD vs a LHD engine. Maybe throttle cable & wiring harness placement - although I'm pretty sure the 4M41-CR would be drive by wire... I have a JDM (RHD) 4D56 in my LHD gen 1. That swap was very straight forward.

4M41 CR - I'm looking this week. (currently in Thailand) Diesels everywhere here, some type of tax break on diesel SUVs & Pickups here, so a gas engine is much less common in these vehicles. The Pajero is locally built here right outside of Bangkok, so Mitsu diesels are very common. And by the...

She sleeps in the Annex and doesn't like it too much. Paces all night.

seriously? $23.5K

I have these covers too - fit the 2nd gen Monteros pretty good.

ridiculous price for essentially a non-running RHD diesel.

Here is my '92 RS, photo taken in early October '14

I've mounted my TuffStuff RTT by myself once... once. With 2 people its manageable.

Labeled as '93 in the title but I think its a '96 - got airbags.

Didn't read back in the whole thread, but did you check integrity and tightness / clean the battery ground cable connection to the frame and engine?
