    Moody Raider

    I have an '86 Dodge Raider that has till recently been absolutely reliable. In the 35 years I have owned it, it has primarily been a yard truck/ snow plow. Half a year ago while plowing it decided to shut off. I found it could idle so I was able to back up into the yard. Having gone through the...

    Pajero Mk2 SWB MIVEC Build

    NAA, rolled it out of the shop to fit a short customer job and spend a little time for maintenance on our road cars. My 72 Colt has most all the interior removed after a heater hose burst late last year, still have not worked on the Pajero but I am getting allot done on my airplane.

    1990 Montero V8 project

    Over here with our heavy wet snow those tires are ideal. Large wide and smooth so you can drive on top without digging through the crust well till you break or dig through.

    Pajero Mk2 SWB MIVEC Build

    "Your driveway looks like a section of a rally stage……I’ll bet you could hit 55 from just the piece I can see! Ha" That has been done, for decades I built and supported Rally cars, hillclimb and road race cars. More than one of them has kicked up some gravel here.

    Pajero Mk2 SWB MIVEC Build

    Now that I have some room around this, I moved the step over since the factory mount will not allow for use of a receiver. One thing I could not understand with the step centered, it was under the spare tire, seemed kind of redundant to have it there.

You can also thread out the brake light switch if needed. When looking in the open resevoir with someone to assist pressing...

    Check that the pedal is returning fully to allow the fill ports from the reservoir to keep the cylinder full.

    Toasty's '98 Montero Build

    Probably due to the width but I thought they were 35s or such. Are those rims 8 or 10?
