You can trim the interior plastic and it should fit. I'm looking at removing the lower section of plastic for my camper build.

Coming soon... busy busy. Leaving for another expedition trip next week. Stay tuned

The factory traction control on the 03 is incredible. I'd do the winch. Recovery gear is top priority in my opinion. Lockers will just get you into worse situations requiring more recovery gear. For me... I'm doing everything. :)

Do you know who makes the starter? I need to replace mine. Where do you find the OEM exchange numbers? I've found the dealer wholesale to be comparable prices to many auto parts stores. Always open to other suggestions.

If you are planning to not spend more than $8k then you need to make your purchase closer to $6k. Most every used vehicle in that price range needs maintenance. Oil leaks are easily resolved when you do the timing belt. I'm tearing down my 2003 Montero currently. Just picked up $1,700 in...

I've never heard of this failing. You'd probably be fine buying a used part. Try searching US wrecking yards: car-part.com Also, you could easily remove the lower intake and remote the shaft and butterfly valves then have the holes MIG welded. The truck will drive fine without those valves.

Just updated the page 1 with part numbers and venders. Will have more to come...

I'm moving into the new house on Friday. Planning to help a buddy on his deck Saturday am. We can meet up after lunch. Give me a shout around noon. :)

SOLD

Will try to. Although, most of the venders/importers will be different in Haiti than the US.

Sounds good. Hopefully, I'll be able to tear into the engine... :)

For those of you who haven't seen the factory traction control and near perfect balance in action... Check it out: Extremely surprising how capable this truck is. Especially with the near flat underside with IFS/IRS there is so much clearance.

It's much more than a "cosmetic accessory"... Works amazingly well deflecting the wind and keeping the rear window clean. Especially nice on extending driving on dusty roads. Love mine.

I don't. Basically giving it away at this price.

I'm working for the next two weekends... Will work on it after that (still waiting on parts too). Would love to have a hand if you are free later in the month. :)
